And I have to say, we're all doing a fantastic job of it.
College is so much more different than high school.
I mean, duh, we already knew that. But I never actually realized just how much different from high school college was.
I took AP classes in high school, actually taking three of them in my senior year. I thought that was busy and stressful and hard work?
Yeah. I spent my entire day today either doing homework or in class. Or eating, because that's pretty important.
And that's from one day of class. It's such a high maintenance level of work to be prepared for my actual classes.
And I love it so much. From two days of classes.
I don't even have the words to describe how happy I am to be back in school again, and how happy I am that college is different from high school, and how happy I am to be here, at BYU-Hawaii. I have awesome teachers, and I am looking forward to working with my classmates.
I'm a nerd, and I love school. I love learning new things, and I love applying it to what I already know.
Like those little moments when I can explain the genetic modifications I use in my story because of my AP Biology class.
When I'm world-building, and I have to come up with governments and countries... AP Government and We the People.
The fact that I'm writing at the level I am. Lots of practice writing not only stories, but also all those analytical essays for AP Literature and AP Lang. As much as I hated those essays, I learned not only what was important in stories and literature, but also ways to put it in.
And just pretty much everything else. I am so super excited. I feel like a sponge, and I just want to drink all this in.
And on a completely unrelated note, today I discovered one of my little brother's Lego ninjas has Bieber Fever. Because college can't be all work.
Enjoy your day.
