College… The “Finals” Frontier

My Star Trek ticket stub =)Classes are officially over, as of this past Friday. My friends and I celebrated by going to see the new Star Trek film, because we’re geeks like that. I have to say, though, it was phenomenal, and a great way to spend our last Friday together.

On the way back, we ended up getting lost in possibly the sketchiest part of St. Pete. For about 15 minutes, we wove our way through a maze of freakishly deserted streets, only passing a few pimped out cars every so often – not a great place to be at 11 o’clock at night. But, we survived and eventually found our way to the on ramp of I-275 South, and made it back to Eckerd in one piece.

The rest of the weekend has been (and will continue to be) spent studying for finals. I have two exams on Monday and one on Wednesday, before I get to go home and try to readjust to “normal” life again.

I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t get accepted for any internships for the summer, but, there’s always next year. I’ll enjoy the down-time until our family vacation in August, and then in September, it’s back to school again! Yay!

Well, enough procrastinating. I’d better get back to studying.

Until next time,

Peace out… or should I say, Live Long and Prosper!

About Andrea

Howdy! I am an environmental studies major and anthropology minor in the class of 2012. I love writing and anything outdoors ? hiking, biking, kayaking, bird watching, you name it. I am always up for adventure. I came to Eckerd College looking for a way to start my own life and make a difference in the world, and so far the experiences have been nothing short of amazing. I live by the rule that it is the journey, not the destination that counts and I look forward to facing each day with enthusiasm and an open mind.
