AH!!! COLLEGE!!!

AH!

COLLEGE!!!

Yup, I finally started. Thus, in the past 3+ weeks, I have done zero writing. Yup! ZIPPO! Unless you count writing essays writing. Because I have to write like four a week. But I have learned some stuff from writing those essays. Actually, I thought I wrote a pretty nifty piece today in a summary/connection paper for English class. Behold...

So, I began to look. I hunted for treasures, tiny snapshots of moments that held some beauty to me. Searching was hard at first, but as I continued this lifestyle, I saw more and more beauty in everyday things. It was from this time I learned that the sky is the deepest blue at four o’clock pm, and that clouds look like paintings right before it rains; that the two little male ducks, the ones I call “the brothers,” swim around my pond from nine to eleven every morning. I found when you sit on the porch on a quiet summer evening, you can feel the music of a thousand creatures enjoying life as much as you, and if you listen closely, you can hear the pure thrill of living shifting the trees.

...Yeah, I thought it was nifty.

So forgive me for any lack of posting...it's REALLY busy and I've broken down completely about three times...that's once a week...

I wasn't very cut out for college okay.

This is my phone background for reason.








And this accurately represents my college days.









and this is my motivational poster.

Hi, Anastasia!

I love the part you wrote for your English class. Makes me want to read more of your stuff.

Are you enjoying college?

Hi Rachel! I am enjoying college, though it is way more work that I bargained for and I am lacking in time for anything but homework and classes. Hopefully my schedule will let up after exams next week. Thanks for asking! :)
