So this past week was stressful to say the least. I pretty much lived in the library. I had a midterm in my Social Problems class, so most of my week was spent trying to not fail. I was also working on a project for my Three Dimensional design class that broke three times...so that was lovely. On Thursday, I also remembered that I had a project due for my Art History class the next day (procrastination is always a good idea until it's not) so I had to walk around the campus and find something that shared a similarity with a building, painting, or sculpture from the Renaissance. On a good note I actually did find a something that worked well for the project. At the end of the week I had to actually take my midterm for my Social Problems class so that was as fun as you would imagine it to be. On Saturday, I got to help with my first USA Day and that was a really cool experience to interact with everybody who is interested in South. All in all, studying and procrastinat...

It probably seems weird to have multiple study places, but where I decide to study depends on what I'm trying to get done. It basically depends on how much I need to study and how much I want to focus on what I'm doing. With that being said, here are my top 4 places to study on campus: 1. My room: This probably isn't the best idea, but I usually study in my room if I have to study for something that I pretty much already know the information on already. 2. The study room in Azalea: The study rooms in the residence hall buildings are great for having a quiet place to study. It's also extremely convenient. 3. The student center: I don't study here as often as the other places, but it is nice to study and be around food options if you need to take a break to eat. 4. The Library: This is my favorite place to study, especially if I need to study for hours. It also helps that there's a Starbucks inside.

Before starting college I already thought of myself as an "independent" person, but moving from home to go to college really amplifies independence. I realized I took a lot of things for granted before I lived alone, but college really put a lot of that into perspective. College has taught me independence through maintaining schoolwork, as well as physical and mental health, so I can function semi normally.
