My Freshmen Year

It's the memories that make it all worth it.

My Freshmen Year
myself

My freshmen year of college was all sorts of things. It was nerve wracking, memorable, and eventful. If somebody were to ask me if I would change one thing I don't think I would. I made several new friends along the way and even lost a few but that's ok, everything happens for a reason. The memories and events are what meant the most to me. Those are what will live on forever.

My freshman year was nerve wracking because I was taking five classes both semesters on top of three jobs. It was really hard to manage the time but I somehow was able to do it. Studying just built up more stress beause I wanted to pass my classes. I wanted to succeed in school. I wanted to make something of myself. Time management is the biggest thing you will need to have as a college student. I highly suggest not to procrastinate.

My freshmen year was memorable because of all the friends I have made. I remember first meeting my Best friend Katie almost a year ago because of her lastname. It is an ordinary lastname but they way she reacts to it is amazing. I am so happy to have a friend like her. She made Freshman orientation enjoyable I remember my first game of pool in the schools gameroom with who is now my ex boyfriend Dylan. He showed me that I don't have to be shy and that it is okay to be myself I remember going hiking with my friend Kelina it was a blast, even when getting lost on our way back down. I remember when my best friend Alyssa and I had our ery first dinner date together. She took me to taco bell and I tried their tacos for the very firt time. They were amazing thank you. Most of all I remember my very first day meeting Ben. I didn't have to be shy with him, I could just be myself Somewhere along the way we fell in love and I couldn't be any happier. I also remember when Josh almost killed me when he made my beef in a bun. He didn't do it on purpose though. I thank him for changing his gloves before he makes my food now.

My freshmen year was eventful because of all the events on campus and the occasional trips to my best friends car. There was the camp rock sing along that I bailed out on last second. There were the several times Alyssa had me walk with her to her car because she needed something out of it. Also our walks in the pouring rain for salad dressing and markers at cvs. I wouldn't want to change these memories for anything else because this is what bases my friendships and my college life. I couldn't thank anybody that I met more than enough. I love you all.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
