Time, time, time. There's so little time! Papers, tests, projects, interviews, dates, concerts, meetings, lab time, class, eating, sleeping...it all takes time. I'm sitting here, just thinking about starting to apply for a summer human resources internship. THAT even takes time. It takes time to think about how little time we have. Such a dilemma...but that's life, eh?

So, I am pretty excited because I just declared my major!! It’s a big deal for me because I had been so undecided when I came into college. I have always been interested in and mediocre at a lot of things, but never amazing at one specific area. I didn’t know if I should go into a field that I’m good at or that I love – which happened to be very different things in my case. I’ll kind of take you through the process of how I got here.

As I study for my last finals of the second semester of my freshman year these past couple weeks it really makes me wonder. How did this year already go by so quickly? I've been reflecting on how I felt the exact same way my freshman year in high school. We were the babies of the school and definitely felt like it! My parents always told me that "it goes by so quickly." It makes me think of the saying, “you think you know, but you have no idea.� It's laughable how right they were.

So it is finally springtime, but it doesn’t feel like it! With all of the blizzards I’ve soaked through two shoes per day and probably three different outfits. It’s beautiful though when I’m in my cozy dorm looking outside. As long as the sun is out I can get myself out of bed to go to class, and Minnesota is definitely less cold, which is helpful too.
