So it's been a long time since I've posted. Which is kinda bad because that means I missed talking about a crucial point in my life...the start of college. Move-in day went well; I went to NC State's African-American Symposium allowing me to move in early and meet lots of other black freshmen that are in my college {FYC: First Year College...for the undecided folks lol}. I made a ton of new friends as well as getting the chance to reconnect with my best friend from elementary school Jasmine. We all hung out for a few days and before I knew it classes started and it's already been a week. Time passes by so quickly. But I'm making sure I take in every moment when I can...especially the bonding times with my friends. (like right for instance, we're having a study session..well they are lol) So far my classes have been pretty good, although I am having some trouble with my pre-cal work.
I have encountered one bad thing since I've been here. I lost my wallet! It was a terrible day. I got stuck at the mall right before I had an academic obligation for FYC. I lost my debit card, license, student ID and my bus pass...I thought my life was ruined. I have a little cash and all my stuff is in the mail. I went and got another school ID and bus pass.
Other than that I've been very blessed. For example, through the Multicultural Student Affairs I was provided with a peer mentor. Someone to act as a "big brother or sister" through my first year of school. Colton Palmer from my high school was made as mine. I felt extremely lucky with him carrying on his reputation for being the "big man on campus" making me the envy of my friends and allowing me to obtain free tickets to all Tally Parties (the biggest on the campus hosted by the Kappas). Speaking of which, we have one of those coming up this Friday...I'm super pumped! :)
