first month of college down!
posted september 23rd, 2025I'm officially one month into the first semester of college! Everything has literally been going so great so far. My high school experience was pretty bad, honestly, so I've been a little worried that college was just going to be a small repeat of the same issues I was having, but it's literally been nothing like high school (in such a good way). I commute about 40 to 45 minutes one way everyday, and I have anywhere from 1 - 4 classes a day. The good part about this is that the vast majority of them are just music classes (since I'm majoring in Music Education) and it's a been really cool looking into tsome of the stuff I missed throughout my high school experience.
Another thing I wanted to touch on was that it's so nice to go to school and talk to people who actually look forward to seeing you every day. I had a small falling out-ish with some of my friends at the end of my senior year of HS, so it was pretty lonely, but now I've made some great friends who I've gotten along great with. It's just been really nice to talk to people who share your same interests and.. actually like you.
When I'm not completely enveloped in music, I'm at work or at home playing Minecraft (the two-week phase hit me hard and suddenly it's been 3 weeks lookin like it's gonna last a little longer than that). On the weekends I've been staying at my partner's house which is ... literally heavenly.
While I've gotten frustrated a couple times so far with just feeling like I've been behind due to my HS experience, my career goal is so strong and I'm so passionate about what I'm doing that it helps me stay focused and keep working hard.
Maybe when I've cooled down off of Minecraft a bit I'll come back and keep furiously working on my site. For now, I just wanted to make a little update post to let at least someone know how it's been going on my end ^_^ hope you enjoyed the read!
