College is here! College is here!

Tomorrow is the first day of college. I am excited and a little nervous as I always am on the first day of school. I haven't been up early in quite a while and it is going to be a little adventure tomorrow, trying to find my classes. I'm ready though. My classes this semester include, History, English, Speech, a "learn to study class" and a lifetime fitness class. Classes with mostly writing, should be fun for someone who is just now getting used to writing.

                                      

I brought home my first set of groceries as a college kid. I feel so mature, even though I just got the very necessities for this week. Since I will be up before my grandparents, I will have breakfast by myself, and sometimes lunch. Dinner will be with my awesome, hilarious grandparents.

                          

As the year goes on, my blogs should get more detailed and longer. I might even include revisions of older posts from my other blog, which is a great place to check out my ideas of being a teacher. This blog is mainly for my college life and perspectives. I can't wait to see what is in store for me as a future elementary school teacher.
            

This is just in...

I am officially moved into my grandparents' house and I start college in a week. WHAT? This is crazy to me. I can't believe what is on. I mean, don't get me wrong, I am excited about being a college kid, yet I am terrified to death. My main concern is not to get lost at North Lake. However, if I could make my way through Haltom, then I should be somewhat okay.

                

On a side note, the high school marching band at Haltom is amazing. School hasn't even started yet and they already have almost their whole show on the field. You are probably asking why I even care/know about the marching band. Well it just so happens that my brother plays the alto sax in the marching band and I am very proud of my brother.

       

Woah. Wait what?

Well. It's official. I am a freshman at North Lake! I got my school id today and have my classes registered. Now all I have to do is pay for tuition and get my books. Oh and wait for school to start. Quoting a great movie, "I'm officially a college student!!!" 


                 
The next thing that I must do is move in with my grandparents. I must say that it is the weirdest feeling in the world, figuring out what to pack and what to keep behind. I just can't get over the fact of moving away. I have lived in this current house for literally half of my life.

                                                                           

August First!

It is officially the first of August and I have to say this week has been pretty busy for me. From getting my state id changed to registering for college, I have to say that college is already stressful. Don't get me wrong, I am very excited for college. I just didn't realize that it takes a lot of different kinds of trips to get everything settled. This is what I did this week.

                                                

Monday, I went and got my transcript from Haltom first making sure they got everything right. Yes I did open one, but I ordered two for a reason. I then had to return back into those hallowed halls to get my transcript "fixed." I can see you now. You are asking either one, two or three questions.
                                       1. Why did I open one transcript?
                                       2. Why did I need the transcript "fixed"?
                                       3. Isn't it illegal to open a high school transcript?
Well here is the thing. I opened one of the transcripts to see whether or not certain items were on there. The reason why the transcript had to get fixed was because there was another girl's name and scores on there. Her name happen to be really similar, so it is easy to get confused. North Lake told us that we could bring them an opened transcript as long as it has the official seal. After all that I did get another set of transcripts.

                                                                                                   
On Tuesday I went with my mom and granddad to the DMV to change the address on my Texas Id and to finally get my permit. Yes, you read it right. I just got my permit. I, however am not going to go through that story.
                        
Today, I went to North Lake to turn some of the necessary items needed for registration and tomorrow I will be going back to finish the registration process. I am a hop and a skip away from becoming an official college kid!
