Ahh! So this is the last night before I start my sophomore
year of college… of college!!!! (I’m
getting so old T^T)

Anyways, after the total craziness of this past summer I am
here to give a summary of all that “went down.” (finally)
Okay, so summer school weeks 3, 4, and 5 flew by. *whoosh*
I finished up Organic Chemistry 1 and flew down to my
parents in Florida. It was so funny getting off the plane because FL is most definitely
hotter than MD was. It probably didn’t help that I slept in a basement room in
Baltimore and was switching to a third floor bedroom!
During the 4th and 5th weeks I also
started ~Online Linear Algebra~ and I was not ready. Not ready at all.
My main problem was that I did not consistently watch the
lectures that would go live at 3 pm Monday-Thursday. In doing this, I grew
behind on both the material and the comprehension that I needed to really
understand the concepts that the class was trying to depart to me. As midterms
came and went I became progressively more worried about how I would do in this
class. Fortunately, I passed both Lin Alg and Orgo,
if not with flying colors, at least with credits applicable to my major. Huzzah!
In Florida I got to do lots of fun things like going boating
and scalloping, visiting Disney world and attending my very first Tampa Bay
Comicon!
(Fun Fact: I was at Disney at the same time as my fave blogger Scathingly Brilliant, how funny!)

It was a very relaxing summer (minus the classwork stress)
and even though my mom kept expressing concern that I was “doing nothing” and
“wasting summer” I like to think that I was doing exactly what I needed to be
doing after such a fastpace freshman year.
Anyways, onwards to sophomore year as a Hopkins BME, Let’s
go!
