A Note to My Fellow College Freshman

We did it! We survived our first semester of college!

Now that we’ve reached the”DC al CODA,” as we review for the remainder of our finals, I can’t help but become a bit sentimental.

To quote my favorite musical (Kinky Boots):

“You’ve gotta take what you’ve got
Even when your life is in knots
You take aim, take your shot
Sometimes, you’ve got to re-write the plot
You’ve got to take what you’ve got”

There comes a point at the end of the semester, when you just know everything is coming to a close. All previous problems are solved & new beginnings seem hopeful.

A break is a time to reevaluate and relax–after these finals, we all know we deserve it.

So enjoy your winter break, but don’t forget: Another semester means another chance to meet new people, forget old ones, make new mistakes, and most importantly, learn.

Anything can happen.

Let’s make next semester even better.

    I agree whole heartily; it is a wonderful feeling to be done. I’ve achieved the best I can possibly do and finally l can have a nice long break from it all. Next semester brings new classes and people, and that’s exciting. I can’t wait to meet more people like me. I’ve gotta keep up the work ethic, but it’s well worth it. Seeya next semester.
