Finding things to look forward to

The semester has started to shake off the excitement and become routine. Now that the 9th week of classes has begun, it’s important to remember things you are excited about! I like to look up things going on and look forward to it. Even if it’s something small, I try to find something to be excited about every day. Usually, it’s just a phone call to a friend, something in the dining hall, a coffee, or watching my favorite show at the end of the day. It’s also very fun to have concert tickets or a weekend home to look forward to! Iowa City has a whole host of things to do all the time. All you have to do is look up “What’s going on in Iowa City this weekend?” Just this weekend there is a pet Halloween costume show, comedy shows, trivia downtown (almost every night), a craft bazaar, a flea market, and so much more. Having a mix of small and big things to look forward to has been the key to maintaining a good balance between schoolwork and having lots of fun during my first semester of college.
