No longer a freshman

Oh, did I mention I am growing up and taking real classes this year with tons of homework and real finals. Classes, homework, rehearsal, study, sleep… and repeat. And I thought I was busy last year with a lot more school and dance work, but sophomore year is definitely way more crazy! My classes are definitely keeping me busy, and my life is soon to only consist of human anatomy. Even though I am completely stressed out with homework, I might actually enjoy it. I know it sounds crazy, but I am actually learning to love learning (this sounds silly, but it’s true). It is about time I learn to enjoy my academics. It took me 12 years, but I am finally becoming interested in my classes. For example, I am now taking the prerequisites for the journalism major, and I am enjoying sitting in lecture because the information actually is interesting to me. I think that is a good sign, because I am planning on double majoring in journalism. So I am slowly getting my academics in check. My dance major is going great on the other hand! Dance Gala is right around the corner, and I am positive it will be another great show (October 25-28 and November 1-4). All the dancers are amazing, and I am looking forward to seeing all the other pieces involved in the show.

Oh, and football season has started too! It is so great to be back in Kinnick with my fellow Hawkeyes screaming for a touchdown. Though, I did skip this past game because I just had too much homework and not enough time. But next Saturday I will be back in the stands rooting for my team.

I love a great football game!

And Fall is on its way… Iowa is so pretty during this season. I love walking to class with a cup of coffee while snuggled in a sweater, scarf, and boots. Not much is happening in my life besides dancing and studying, but I got an A on my first Statistics exam, so the hard work is paying off.
