Hello everyone…. 

School has about kicked into it’s full gear by now.  This week and next week I have a test in every class that I am taking this semester… what does that mean you ask…..   Lots Of Cramming! I decided to put in a happy smiley because I definitely enjoy the fact that while all tests are happening at once, after the fact I will again be able to relax for several weeks.  I guess that’s my favorite part of being a collage student….. no pointless homework assignments- exams only.  I mean not that it would be nice to have extra points from homework assignments to help your grades out, but I think that at the collage level every student should be responsible to study and review the material on their own.  With that said… Walsh is a great place to learn because you are always able to talk to your professors and they will always try to help you in any way they can.  For instance, if you have more than a couple of tests on a certain day, you may talk to the understanding staff and they will most likely allow you to reschedule your exam.  Professors don’t want you to fail their class, they just need to see you try and work hard.  Okay well enough about school work because I’m starting to anticipate studying for my quickly approaching Organic Chemistry test. 

I am also very excited for this weekend because I was not able to go home for about three weeks now and I’m sort of starting to miss my family a lot.  I have been staying on campus for weekends because as I mentioned in the previous blog, starting this semester I became an RA (resident assistant). I am having so much fun with this position because it allows you to experience “your home away from home” from a totally different perspective.  If you like to interact and help others you might want to consider this position.  I definitely enjoy it, and just for doing it for a couple of weeks I definitely feel like I’m learning a lot from all of my residents and staff.  In a couple of weeks, I’m planning a very cool floor program and I will take pictures and post them on here to show you guys a little something about living in the residence halls. 

Finally, I wanted to end this blog on a friendly note… Im looking outside my window and it’s snowing bunches…. hopefully we will have a snow day tommorow… you’ve got to love OHIO!

until the next time bloggers…
