I have officially started at the University of South Carolina. I cannot say that I am too nervous. Unlike most people, I did not try to keep my parents here on move-in day longer than they wished. Once everything was in my room and the basics were set up I was already pushing them out the door ready for the next chapter of my life to begin. I have goals I wish to reach while I am here that I have to do alone. Already starting out as a Pre-Pharmacy major time as an undergraduate is limited. Within a year I will be applying to the graduate program and setting my sights on a new journey. While I am nervous, I am confident that nothing is impossible.
If you have viewed my profile you will quickly learn that I LOVE triathlons. It isn't quite an obsession but it is fairly close if I do say so myself. I have already contacted the President of the Triathlon Club and plan to be a dedicated member as to keep up my training. As a member of the club I hope to make a lasting relationship with other members outside of training and form friendships that I would have otherwised missed out on if I had not been so outgoing. On top of this wonderful club I have already joined three different Christian organizations on campus. I know what you are thinking, I am in way over my head. But truthfully, the commitment is not alot and I get to meet an even more diverse and exciting group of people. People that will help me through the years and keep me positive in my studies and walk with faith.
Sadly, I cannot say that I have had anything exciting happen to me in my first two weeks. Besides the occassional midnight walk through Columbia with friends or IHOP excursion (yes an IHOP excursion) life has stayed pretty normal. But for me, normal is how I like it. Hopefully by my next blog post something amazing will have happened, or at least something worth describing as amazing with a little exaggeration. Until next time....
