Recapping my first year of college at Northeastern
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
Maybe next semester I'll film finals week log for you guys have got something you're interested in. I made a semester recap video, and then I didn't upload it because I figured too much time had passed. My first semester, I took 18 credits I did off 44 credit courses and then to one credit, one WAAS and in true to the journalism program. Just not worth pursuing extracurricular wise last semester. So I had a lot of stuff going on first semester, but I think I managed it well. I'm gonna kind of skipped forward thio this past semester, spring 2019 and then kind of go back through it. I'm taking the next one next semester because for a bachelor of arts at Northeastern, I have to take two years of a language and culture course. So I'm going to put a lot more effort into that next semester. In addition to all the other stuff that I did this semester, running around to get all my interviews done was a little bit tricky. Both of the presidents from full 2018 we're studying abroad or doing Coop last semester for the spring semester. So they asked me to take over for the semester, and I think I didn't Okay, job. There were a couple people that, like really pulled through and helped us meet our requirements. Those were the only two that I did this semester because I felt like it way too much for me to also do the avenue. Of course, I had already committed to everything that I was doing for the entire semester. I like the fact that the first semester I wrote consistently for these publications and made a name for myself so that I was able to move into these other opportunities for spring. I actually had the editor in Chief of the Avenue reach out to me and say, Hey, I know you did some great work for us last semester. Are you interested in maybe pitching something for this print issue and that really spoke volumes to me? I was really humbled by the fact that someone remembered my work and I wanted to see if I was still interested. Having people remember your name and making these connections with organizations is something that's really important moving on from the extracurricular academic side of things. Like maybe I had an Inter across with them last semester. When we got our schedules, I like, pulled his over and I looked at it and I was like, Oh, wow, we have four classes together next semester, we're gonna be best friends and he hasn't gotten rid of reasons. Okay, um, Ali was my deputy editor last semester, and now she's taking over for me, which is awesome, because I am no longer part of the editorial board for the newspaper. Yeah, The weather was a big issue for me, and it wasn't as bad during the fall semester. Once I went home for three weeks and it was sunny and I came back and it was cold in here for like the first half of the semester, it was just snowing all the time. As faras activities on campus, I didn't really have time to go out and do a lot. Towards the end of both semesters, I would go out like a little bit more, try to have fun. Not a lot of older people go, but that was really cool. Sometimes groups will get musicians to come in and play or have like a stand up comedian, and that was really fun. For one of the last weeks of this spring semester, they had spring fest which a lot of schools have. I'll watch Netflix specials, but I want to go out into the city more next semester. I'm really take time for myself and be able to go see a lot of fun things as faras taking care of myself. I feel like I could have done a way better job this semester of this entire year. Really, because, of course I got a lot accomplished. It looks like I'll be able to get a lot of stuff done our next semester. There's just a lot of really great things ahead air and likes that. Don't call these numbers closely because I believe they're changing for next semester. As the semester goes on, I feel like the food gets worse and you aren't going to want to eat it all the time, which is an issue if you're paying all this money for the meals. So a lot of people go out takes to spend all of their extra meals where you conspire like packs of chips or, um, like cans of soda bottles of soda, whatever, but it's really not worth it. I am not addicted to caffeine, which is great, but I do enjoy drinking coffee more now than I did last semester. I don't get like every few days now, but next semester I definitely intend to get more sleep and more self care in general. You guys with follow me and then do my polls when I start them, probably next semester.
