Sophomore Year!

Took me a few weeks to decide whether or not I wanted to write a blog again this year, but after several long days of thinking, and a few people trying to convince me, I made my decision.  It won't be a weekly post like last year but I will still write plenty throughout the semester.

This past summer was definitely one of the most memory-filled and I loved every second of it. Being back home was awesome and I took advantage of as many beach days as possible.  I never appreciated the beach as much as I did last year.  When it's there for you to go to everyday you don't really think about how lucky you are. However when you're stuck in a state that has Winter 7 months out of the year, the beach becomes the best thing ever.  But, like usual, Summer went by very quickly.

The 2 day car ride up here to Grand Forks was surprisingly not as bad as we were expecting it to be. My mom and I spent two 14 hour days going through many different states and rotating off every four hours.  So it helped make the drive tolerable.  Not much to see throughout a lot of that drive other than desert and hills though.  But we finally made it up here and I got situated into my new place for the year!

The excitement wasn't nearly the same coming back up this year as it was last year though.  Don't get my wrong I'm happy to be back, but it's just not the same feeling. Last year everything was new which helped make the start of last year so awesome, but this year I already know what's going on, making it a pretty slow start thus far.

Classes are going well, I am taking 19 credits this semester so it has been very busy. All my professors are awesome which helps make the classes so much more enjoyable.  I am also flying three or more days a week so with a full class schedule and flying, it doesn't leave much time for anything else other than studying.  But I'm alright with that because if I take more classes now and get it done with, later on down the road should hopefully be easier.

I think that is all I have for this week, again I'm happy to be back in Grand Forks but also miss so many things back home.  Winter break can't come soon enough! :)

Leave a comment with what else you would like to hear from me! Miss everyone back home tons!

  1. yay! you're back! even tho you won't be posting as much, which i totally get, it will be nice to hear how things are going from time to time.

    topic suggestion....flying! what? who? when? how? for those of us that haven't had the pleasure of going cloud hopping with you, it would be cool to hear how that's coming along, how many hours you need, is it easier? challenges?

    also, tell us about your new digs, who you're with? what it's like? new roomie's? pics? and what's it like having your car there as opposed to last year?

    in other words, i'm just a nosy aunt that needs the 411.

    hugs! deb & paul
