Time for a check up : College Edition!







    With there being only a few weeks left until I move back into college, I just wanted to reflect and share with you all how my freshman year went. Pictured above is my dorm from last year, as many of you saw on my instagram. I stayed in a triple with two other ladies, Ashley and Lily. It was honestly fun in the triple, I don't really see why people don't like triples, it felt like a never-ending sleepover! 
      
    I moved in before my roommates because I was a part of a program called Thrive! Thrive was designed to help first generational minority students settle into the college life. I am grateful for that opportunity because it helped me get use to what I was in for before it actually started. I learned a few tips provided by professors to help ensure success in my classes, made friends, and found my way around the campus. 
     
Then classes started, first semester went by extremely fast. I had English, Psychology, and a Roadmap class which was specific to my school. The classes were a breeze except for Psychology. Oh, and not to mention I also had a job on campus I worked for Digital Charlotte , where I was able to curate and produce my own stores regarding digital inclusion around Charlotte! I will link the site above and you can search my name and see my stories.

   Ashley and I , shared the same major and we are both a Sagittarius so as you can imagine we had a lot of things in common we celebrated her birthday by going to the club. I think we went to Suite it was our first time at a club and we had fun. 

 Second semester was definitely a breeze, I got straight A's, made the Dean's list, and  made more friends. I truly believe college will be a few of the best years of my life and I can't wait to start sophomore year. To all the approaching freshman don't take life too seriously here! Focus on your classes and grades but try to have fun as well because before you know it you'll be graduating and wishing you had made more memories.

Where is David?

   Hey you guys, it has been a while since we last talked. I feel like the last time I wrote was maybe mid February, maybe, maybe not. To catch you up SUMMER17' is officially about to kick in, with my last week of junior year flying by. I was walking out of the doors that lead to the bus lot today when I started to think about the summer. How this whole year I was saying "Summer 17' will be mine" but, funny thing is I said the same thing last year and the year be for that, and the one before that, and so on. I mean you get the idea right? Yeah, pretty sure you do. I began thinking why I haven't experienced a summer worthwhile yet. You know like the ones in the movies where the girl typically meets a guy who helps her out of her comfort zone? If you didn't this is pretty much a quote on quote description of ENDLESS LOVE which was the movie of the summer last year. So, yes I am pretty much comparing myself to a fictional character in a book, but only because w...

            Hey you guys! I'm starting this blog off today thanking you all for the love and support in my blogs.

She is

She is a girl. She is a girl who wears her heart on her sleeves. She is a girl who puts her all into everything. She is a girl who has felt pain. She is a girl who has loved. She is a girl that at times feels lost. She is a girl that feels alone. She is a girl that will put on a smile even when she is not happy. She is a girl that will hold her tears back just to let you shed your own. She is...
