Every time I leave class, I am reminded that I am in the right place and I smile. This semester is going to be more difficult than the last but I am so prepared for that. Having never professionally shot color, I am terrified, yet excited for new opportunities and learning experiences. I haven't met my College Mathematics professor yet, but the rest of my professors seem awesome. I'm glad that I have the same darkroom professor so that I'll be able to be somewhat comfortable. I found myself talking to more people I don't know. I'm still my usual socially awkward self, but I've been opening up more. Networking myself is ultimately going to be the most important thing I learn how to do.

I have been in Cincinnati since December 18th. It has been nice having a break from classes but I am more than ready to go back. Last semester's hard work got me a 3.7, which I am extremely happy with. Right now I am almost too comfortable here, like I'm getting sucked back into everything I left. Along with this realization, I realized who really cares about me and who I really care about. It has been great spending time with real friends and seeing my horse. I really want to move him to Illinois next year so that I can spend as much time with him as possible.
