A Semester You Would Not Forget

Improving Yourself Next Semester

What do you want to do with your next semester? Improve your grades, interact with more people, talk to professors about doing research with them over the break or during the semester? This semester is your time to become someone who can change the future rather than stay the same and not do anything. Grades will reflect what you can do as a full-time student in college and balance out other things that have to be dealt with. I want people to improve their lives by having a mindset to stay focused in college and helping others to do their best when it comes to academics. I want to improve myself next semester by continuing to give back to the Oswego community in any way possible and network with others that I have not been able to yet. Helping the community will give positivity to your life and slightly eliminate the stress that work has caused. Spring semester is not an easy semester, as there are minimum breaks and work accumulates quickly. When April hits people start to get lazy and it takes a toll on the effort that they put into that work submitted.

A new semester means new goals and different aspects on what curriculums you will be learning to master. Improving yourself as a person with a humble mindset and chasing a goal you set, really will depict what type of person you want to be this semester. Friends who help you through the struggles you are facing can really portray how your semester can become too. College semesters are stressful and it's up to you to face the obstacles getting thrown at you. Everyone should have a plan when starting a new semester or college in general and that is to never slack no matter what comes your way. Excuses is a no-no in college and can change your whole perspective for who you become in the future. This semester set for the highest GPA and do not look back on what you did in the past, but what you are capable of doing for the present. In College, you want to grow so this is the semester to show others that thought down of you that you are focused.

The message for this article is a new semester, means new goals, better GPA, and shaping yourself to be a better person than you may have been already. "Actions speak louder than words" and commit those actions to prove others wrong. When stress comes across, make it because to beat it will make you even stronger. College is all about seeking that one career you want in the future and extra necessities come with that. Don't stress yourself guys, just progress yourself.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
