I know when I decided to go to college a big question was, “What will my days be like?”
Being the first in my family to go to college was scary. I didn’t know what to expect in a day, or a week, I just knew I was going to be away from what I knew, and I had to go to class.
On average my days are pretty full. I enjoy being as busy as I am because I grew up that way through junior high and high school, and couldn’t see myself any other way.
My average day usually doesn’t consist of an early start. I get up around 9:00 (maybe 10:00) every morning. I spend about a half hour on last minute assignments for the day, and then I get ready and am out the door by 9:45. My first event is usually a tour. As a student admissions representative I give an hour tour a few mornings a week. After my tour I’m off to the news paper office to get the big stories of the day, or pick up my pay check. I usually hang out there for awhile, and then venture back home for a bite to eat if I have time.( It’s not uncommon for me to look at the clock at about 3:00 and realize I skipped lunch.) By this time it’s about noon, and five out of the seven days of the week there’s softball, baseball or a tennis match, so I grab my camera, and it’s off to the field for me. Depending on the day, classes start at either 3:00 or 4:30. (On Mondays and Wednesday s it’s 4:30-8:45 and Tuesday and Thursday it’s 3:00-4:15 and 6:00-7:15) The games for the most part are never over before I head to class, so I go to class and stop back over afterwards. I can for the most part make my way back to my apartment by 9:00. This is when I do most of my homework. I seem to work my best in the later hours of the evening.
It’s really nice having the schedule I do, except most of my friends, roommates, and neighbors all have morning classes, and go out before I even come home. My night starts after a full day and I don’t end up going to bed at what my mom would call a “decent hour” hence the not getting up before 9:00.
I have to schedule for next fall soon, so I’ll let you know how that goes when I know!
