Things I've been meaning to write about - Part 3

I can't believe 4 months have passed ever since I first wrote about my anxieties with going into college. It's been too fast, now that I write about it in this half-asleep stupor I'm in, I realize everything has been nothing but an amazing zip, a colorful blur, a specter seen from a kaleidoscope.

In college I've learned perhaps one valuable thing -- you work your ass off for something you want. I've learned that unlike high school, no one comes to your rescue but yourself, and that's a good thing.

I've experienced more things in these 4 months than I must've experienced in my whole high school freshman experience. My first literal hell week with less than 15 hours of sleep, my first exemption in 2 exams, my first real debate competition that escalated from more than the quarter finals, my first college sport win (I was not an athlete of course), my first drunk weekend, my first midnight rendezvous that did not just consist of sitting in a park under the stars, my first time to travel to places alone, and lots more firsts.

Of course, there are still loads more firsts to write about. But I won't write about them until they happen. ;)

Happy first sembreak of our first year in college, everyone.
