It's Cold, Bundle up!!!

It's only the beginning of Second Semester and things are moving fast past, except the weather of course. When it comes to packing clothes for Durham be sure to pack winter, fall, and spring clothes for second semester. The weather constantly changes and one day it will be cold the next semi-warm. You NEVER know!! Also pack rain boots because they are very necessary!! It rains almost every week or sometimes more than once a week. Durham has what we like to call strange weather. For example, today we had weather in the low 40's and the wind was blowing, but yesterday we had 60's weather and the sun was shining. To us that is good weather, maybe a nice jacket and some flats (shoes). Be sure to pack your snow boots, gloves, scarves, and your umbrella!!

2011 A New Semester

Well , we're back to school with a new semester and new classes. This semester is very different and it has not quite hit me that we are back already. It was an excitement for me to get back to what I love doing, studying!! Of course with the new semester comes, the new students, and the beginning of making friends...AGAIN! You have new friends and you have old ones. It never gets boring! This semester I am juggling:

• Summer Session II
• Paying everything ON TIME
• Staying fit
• Becoming more "involved"
• Staying focused

It's hard to come back buckle down when all you want to do is chill with friends, go out, and have a good time. You just have to remember that school comes first!! You did not come here on scholarships or your parents money to waste it all and end up getting dropped or kicked out. Make it worth your while and thing of ways that you know will help you stay on TASK!!
