Well, I've been an official college kid for a week now. And I must say, it's even better than I expected. It makes me realize exactly how horrible my high school really was. But I'm doing this blog for extra credit and I'm supposed to talk about school and stuff so...
The first week of school was pretty good. Mon/Wed/Fri I have Communication at 9, American History at 11, and French at 1. Tues/Thurs I have Physical Science at 8:30. Then I have Chapel at 10 and New Testament at 2 every day. The only class I don't like is American History (before 1877). They call my teacher "sedat'em statom" if that tells you anything. It's the type of stuff I should have learned in high school and I wish I could learn now....but it's so hard to stay awake. I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to do yet.
French is definitely hard, because even though I loved Mrs. Simon, it wasn't a very serious class. So there's a lot of stuff I should know after taking 4 years, but I don't. So it's going to be tough....but a lot of motivation is going to come from my NT class. My teacher is a missionary in Togo, Africa...which is partially a French-speaking country and the first day he said part of the reason he's teaching the class is to recruit people to go with him....*sigh* that would be a dream come true! I've always wanted to go to Africa. We'll see how that goes though.
For everyone that goes to a real college....I'm sorry. I truly pity you because Harding is the most amazing school ever. People are so nice and you meet people every day and the teachers actually care about you. Almost every single one of my teachers on the first day of classes said something like "If any of you ever need someone to talk to, if you're having any kind of problems or issues, or you just want someone to pray for you or with you, please, PLEASE come talk to me. My door's always open if you need to talk." That kind of thing doesn't happen at state schools. I mean, even if you're not a spirtual person, the people here are so nice. So if anyone's having a crappy time at college, you should think about transferring. :) Harding rocks real schools.
If you're thinking "I wouldn't mind Harding at all....but Searcy...." Well it's really not that bad. As long as you hang out with the right people you'll find something to do. And I mean....TYLER HILTON was here!!! And they show movies in the Benson almost every weekend. AND....when you have awesome people on your hall....like I do....it is never boring. We've already had chair racing, a dance party, a "late night" trip to DQ, and tonight's a Zoolander party. It's as good as you make it....
But I actually have homework....and I haven't had lunch so peace out.
