Keeping Busy as Time Flies By!

Hello everyone! It has been a few weeks since my first blog post, and let me tell you in such a short amount of time I have done so much all at once. So heres an update on what’s been happening on the hill!

1. Field Hockey – We had a game against University of Vermont and sadly lost 0-6. It began snowing mid-game so it felt as though our arms and legs were frozen! They were a really good team but we played hard until the end. So far our record is 1-1 and we have another game this Sunday against Emmanuel College. Hopefully we get the W!

2. House Council – We’ve had a successful semester so far! We’ve planned and executed 3 events including a grilled cheese night, family weekend brunch, and a Fall-Halloween festival! It was awesome, and currently we are working on our next project, a Mulledy Hall music video!

3. Classes and Homework – WOW! what a stressful two weeks it has been since fall break! I’ve had countless papers and assignments due consecutively each day. I’ve had Chinese tests every week, and also a midterm for my Perspectives on Asia class which was intense! I’m just glad it cooled down a bit but there is always work to do here. It is fun to be learning but also stressful as well. Finishing all of the rigorous work makes me feel accomplished at the end of the week. No worries, everyone else is going through the same thing! I like to tell myself so that I don’t feel alone.

Overall, It has been a crazy, jam-packed, overwhelming but fun few weeks.

I know it’ll get even crazier in the future.

It is all worth it though, I am having a great time learning new things, and meeting new people as well. I am slowly developing into the person I want to be.

Here’s a visual guide to show you what’s been going on:
