College. A New Chapter

It seems a new chapter in my life has begun. I am away in college. Independent, free and on my own. I am foraging on my own. I have my own room and bathroom and share the kitchen and living room with five other lovely girls. I see my parents every week or so, but other than that I am off and away. I am taking 17 units and on my way to become a teacher in 4 amazing years. It is barely the second week of school and I have piles and piles of reading lining up.
There is reading for my 12 unit class (Libs 101), which apparently I will be reading a book a week for. And a response for each one. In that class I have a seminar about every class period (M, W, F), which means I have to talk in the class or I get an absent. Secondly every Monday I have my EDMS class which is explorations in teaching. This class has a lot of homework too, but soon I will be observing and assisting first or second grade teachers. (This is my dream, so I am pretty excited). Lastly I have my Math 150 (geometry). The first day the teacher was 15 minutes late and told everyone that this class is not supposed to be fun, Luckily no homework so
far, but a quiz every Thursday.

Socially everything has been good. I love hanging out and watching shows with roomies. But I have been pretty busy with homework since I have Monday through Friday classes, unlike everyone else. I miss my writing freedom and my blogging. I miss it. I hope I can do it more soon.
It seems for me that I am focused on getting my credentials, but also partying it up. Because it is freshmen year in college.
