This month’s blog marks the start of a very exciting opportunity. Early this summer I was given a great opportunity by MyMajors.com to write for them as an Intern-Blogger. Simply put, I once again get a unique opportunity to write for a fun and informative website. When I was writing last year as a featured blogger I wasn’t sure what to do. I had little to no experience writing for a website and I only hoped that what I wrote was entertaining enough. To ease the stress of putting my thoughts out publicly I tried my best to add humor where I could. In the end, the year long experience I had with MyMajors.com was like a bag of chips… I couldn’t have just one. Therefore, as I previously mentioned I will be writing for another year with MyMajors.com.
This month, I have been asked to write about my summer adventures, as well as, my preparations for college. I am going with the former, and I am going to do so not because it is more entertaining which will keep your attention and help you read this blog in its entirety. No, I am writing about my summer first because it is short and uneventful. Going into the summer I imagined that I would relive scenes from Euro Trip or experience my own Road Trip. Sadly, the closest thing I got to either was watching both. But it is O.K. because my summer was all filled with quiet weeping. Throughout the summer I continued a weekly get together with my friends. As a group we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for their wing night special. Afterwards, we would stop at a little shanty building on the side of the road, for some of the best ice cream I ever had. Now, I bet your thinking my life is extremely boring if something like getting wings was the high point. Well, you right… Besides the occasional get together with friends or days/evenings at the beach/boardwalk, I haven’t done much. None the less, college is quickly approaching. For college I will be attending, The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey. I had various other great opportunities for college, but I chose to attend Stockton for three reasons. One, I was given a great offer from the school. Two, it is very close so I am able to save money by commuting, and three, while visiting the campus I felt that I would fit best attending college there.
The classes you take in college hold a great importance. They act as rungs on your ladder to success, and even if one of your rungs break or one of your rungs isn’t as strong as the other, it is still a part of who you are and who you will become. The classes that I am taking this upcoming semester contain a story by themselves. I went into my orientation as a Duel Degree Physics/Engineering major. However during orientation I wasn’t feeling that this track was right for me. After speaking with an academic advisor I changed my major to Computational Science, in turn I changed a few of classes and my schedule contained Calculus 1, A Freshman Seminar consisting of the relationship of Math and Sports, Intro to Computational Science and lastly an Introductory level Programming class. All seemed fine, however my mind was still undecided. I learned during this college process that I am intellectually curious. I have interest in everything and it makes it difficult for me to settle on one major. So, once again I talked to an advisor and we switched my Programming class with an Intro to Macro class. However, afterwards I still wasn’t content. So I changed my schedule for a final time and switched my Intro to Macro class with a writing class. After all those change I believe I am content with what I have, for now… My mind shoots in a million directions, filled with dreams and ideas, and want to experience all that I can. As the waves of words trickle to the beach, and this blog entry comes to an end. I leave you with a group of words that may or may not ring true to you.
“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.”
– Thomas Jefferson
