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

Tristen was super cute when I got home!

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 4^th and 5^th 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!)

A (blurry) shot of the Ray Bans I found on the ocean floor while snorkeling. Lucky!

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!

Summer School Week 2 Recap

Monday: we had class and it was a very good class. And during class was my first test and I felt very confident about it since I was like, things are looking up, this is going to be great and then after class I got some food from the restaurant next-door. It's an Indian restaurants, so that's pretty cool. 

Tuesday: Class again and then after class they gave us our tests back. I did so much worse than I thought I did. I thought that I had done if not amazing at least pretty well and then to get the grade back and seeing how bad it was really hurt and felt like a punch the gut. Yeah. 

Wednesday: Today there was no class so I actually slept in until like 3 PM after staying up until 4 AM. This is not the best idea and I did nothing absolutely nothing on Wednesday. That was a sad day.

Thursday: much like Wednesday I slept in until about 1:30 in the afternoon. My mom did not call me at 9 AM though worrying if I was still safe or alive, so that was good.  I tried to get more information on how to register for this class I'm trying to get into, it's a problem solving class that goes along with my organic chemistry course. However it is crazy trying to go through all the bureaucracy and stuff. 

Friday: today we had class and I enjoyed class because we're learning important things and I don't fall asleep. I planned on doing some studying but instead I decided to binge watch the entire new season of orange is the new black and I am regretting it and knew that I shouldn't of done that but I did, so that's that.

Anyways, time to study for the next exam! Let's go!
