And so second semester begins…
I cannot believe that I’ve already completed my first week of second semester. I know I sound in awe in many of my entries, but that’s because I really am. I am amazed at how fast freshman year is flying by! It seems like just yesterday that I had moved onto campus and didn’t know a single soul and now I have created a whole new life for myself here!
This semester, I’m better prepared for classes. Coming in last semester, I had known that Richmond would be challenging, but I had expected to have an easier time than I did. Now, I am more prepared to take on tough classes and meet high expectations. Since I have completed six out of the eight required general education courses, I had free space in this semester’s schedule to start taking business classes. After this semester, I should be done with my business pre-requisites and thus, be able to declare myself as an official Robins Business School student! It’s exciting to finally start taking classes in my field because I enjoy learning the topics, especially in as interesting an economic time as this!
In addition to my classes, I am still working at the Center of Civic Engagement. Because I have become accustomed to the CCE and its projects, I have been given more responsibility around the office, which is exciting to me. I am also starting to make plans for summer! Since I am a double major in business and Spanish, I decided to spend this upcoming summer in Argentina, taking two Spanish classes and immersing myself in a Spanish speaking environment.
I am excited for what lies ahead this semester and this summer! Stay tuned!
