Winter Term Reflection 2 @ Dartmouth (College Rewind)

The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.

It's February 3rd at 10:11 a.m. And I've just finished up my fifth week of my second term at Dartmouth. First off, I just wanted to apologize for my absence. Like I said, it's been super hard, just like getting back from break and then getting into the groove this winter term, and a lot of my classes are front loaded, so hopefully it'll get better from here on out. I do have some cool video ideas to play with, so hopefully we'll go back onto that to video a month schedule. So I got two campuses term, literally midnight of New Year's Day of 2019 and I basically just walked back to my dorm, scratched off England from my map and then went to bed and school officially started on January. Well, like I would be so awake at 6 a.m. But insanely tired by seven cm, which I absolutely did not have my product money and I was also kind of disappointed when I got back because I expected, like, insane New England snowing. I came back and there was very little snow accumulation. If there's one thing that I learned from this term, it's that Snow is amazing to walk on on the crunchy sound that you get when you walk on it. It's very therapeutic, but I's ice is the brain of my existence so far, fallen three times already very gracefully, and I've spent the rest of my time outside trying not to fall. I've been so slow in getting to places because I don't want to fall in the ice apart from the anticlimatic beginning of the term, in terms of whether it's pretty much lived up to our expectations, the lowest, really feel temperature that I've had so far here is negative 29 degrees Celsius and that's when it, like, really hurt to breathe. So like I did not want to get out of my room were library owl whatsoever. We've had a couple of storms which waas cool to see, like the accumulation of snow. I think it was like two feet accumulation overnight, so there's a storm coming, and so there's gonna apparently be like two feet snow or something that's a parking leader and only screen is still above ground. With the amount of snow on the ice in the cold, you just like, really don't want to go anywhere. I don't think I've ever eaten so much library food in a week or ordered so much last year at this time I've been sitting on yet, which is like the theater in town three or four times. Because of the weather in the cold, I haven't been this term, and instead I've been just watching like TV and Netflix. This term, we'll still celebrated Dartmouth's 250th anniversary. Which person have found a bit weird because, Well, I mean, like, it's the lobby of a library. That's basically just white, and I need to create it, and I think I did a pretty good job. The sad thing is, I think someone took my mother, so I never got it back. If you have a mug came, please give back the most extra thing. The apparently got Niagara Falls to shine green of the Empire State Building and like Capital Wheel and like a bunch of other monuments around the globe, to be green, which is really impressive action. My stress induced, like my wisdom teeth grow, which hurts so bad. And also two of my three classes air pretty much discussion based, and it's really hard to participate in class when you want every movement of your mouth just like induces pain. I got a cold, which wasn't like debilitating, but it was just so again, I'm really sorry that I haven't been active here, but it's just been after, like signees after Simon, after mid terms after wisdom tooth pain, I wasn't taking my first, of course this term, which has been really cool because my lab is unlike anatomy and like that sections. We're back at it at 7 45 and at first I actually wanted to do in the afternoon because I didn't want to wake up that early for, like, four hours, five days of the week. I decided after that, I really just wanted, like, a solid chunk of time after class for me to just sit in the library and get work done. For the majority of time, I've literally just been spending in the library, and I think it's been just drying me crazy like, Look at this. I'm doing a feces in in college in a Dartmouth college, and I'd really appreciate it if you could get back to me. Remember when I said the freshman fall was supposed to be hardest term of the year? Yeah, I take that back because this term has already been a lot harder. I think it's just cause, like my classes just keep piling work on top of each other, and I just haven't had time to get around all of it. Then I also have essays this term which, if you know me, I think sport ever for me to write an essay, and that's just taking up a substantial chunk of my time, which I could have been using for, like, other classes. I've just been pretty annoyed because I haven't been able to do everything that I want to do, like both academically and like extracurricular, really. Oh, no, It's just been hard to stay like, super optimistic and positive throughout this, and I guess that's just the reality of college. At the same time, it's been really nice coming back to school and actually knowing people, because the last time I came with basically freshman fall, so nobody knew anyone, and we just have to spend our time like trying to make friends and trying to make people like you. This term there's been a lot less of that because people kind of have their own groups and people know each other already. This really cool seeing people who were in my class like last term. We're just like seeing them in the hallway or in the library and just catching up. Situations like these really make me like the small class sizes, because you gonna you're not like best friends. So it's been nice really socially this term, I think, which I really appreciate it. It's been kind of like a really stressful and uneventful months back, I would say, but it won't be like this for long, because February Dartmouth planned a lot of events, and it's gonna be action packed.
