Hello, everyone!
Sorry for not posting since, well..forever. I actually JUST typed a blog, but when I went to click save it didn’t save because it ran out of time. Anyways, since this is my second time to write this, it probably won’t be as thorough. Sorry for that. However, I will try to write as much as I did in the first one.
In my first blog I wrote about how I was transferring. I really don’t want to go into too much detail since I just wrote a book about it so I’ll keep it short. If you didn’t already know, yes, I am transferring. I’m so excited and I simply cannot wait. What is the reason you may ask? Well, there’s quite a few. Why don’t you go ahead and grab a coffee and I’ll tell you why. My college right now (I won’t say the name since there are creepers on the internet, but I’m sure you can take a stab at it) is in a terribly small southern town. Pretty much the COMPLETE opposite of me. I love big cities and pretty much hate the south. I’m only joking…well, a little. Well…Anna, why did you go there then? I went there because I wanted to experience going off to college and the whole moving out process. Let me tell you, I wish I didn’t have that urge when I was in high school. I wish I could go back in time and tell myself, “Hey, Anna. You know that college that you want to go to so bad because you really want to experience ‘moving out?’ Yeah, well you’ll hate the dorm. People will throw up and it won’t get cleaned up. AND your dorm room is going to be right next to the bathroom. Enjoy!” Something like that. Another reason why I went was because of my major. When I was in high school I knew that once I got older I wanted to be traveling and speaking other languages. However, I didn’t know that at my current school the International Business major would require me to study for five years (yes, cinco) and require me to study abroad, intern, and do a business camp. Don’t get me wrong, if you know for sure that you want to do IB, then I say go ahead! It’s a great program. However, for someone like me who has no idea what they want to do, it’s a very daunting decision. That is why I’m transferring to another school. I hope to be able to major in Spanish, International Business, and hopefully something else in FOUR years. Can three majors be done in four years? I’m not really sure, but I do hope so.
Anyways, I’m sure you’re wondering what I want to do with my life since I want to transfer so bad. Again, I’m still not even quite sure myself. However, I DO know my interests. I thoroughly enjoy….fashion (a lot), traveling (a lot times infinity), photography, learning new languages, meeting foreign people, making things, cities, and music. So…how do I find a job where I can incorporate most of these? Well, I’ve been thinking a lot about having my own business. I don’t mean owning my own boutique or something. I want to own my own business. I’m not quite sure how or when, but I’m hoping that with an IB degree and a Spanish degree I can eventually expand if I want to. On the other hand, if I do decide to change my mind about owning my own business (or heaven forbid it doesn’t succeed) I would still have two of the most desirable degrees in the US to go on and do other things with. To me it’s a win win situation. I go to college to get two degrees that can help me reach my dreams AND if it doesn’t work out I could still get a really great job. Awesome, right?
I bet a lot of you guys want to know how school is going, right? Well, it’s not going that well. Remember that time I told you I was transferring….well, that has something to do with it. It’s not terrible, but it’s definitely not as great as it could be. The dorm life is hell. I mean that in the most sincere way possible. Also, I have one of the most ridiculous professors on campus. He doesn’t put our grades online and doesn’t tell us how we do on things so when it comes to knowing our grades, your guess is as good as mine. I can, however, infer that it is either higher or lower than a B because that’s what I had at midterm. It’s so frustrating how one class you can have a 99 in effortlessly (Business Calculus, who knew?!) and then have one class that gives you trouble just because your professor grades ridiculously. Usually I try not to be dramatic about stuff like that, but when your professor doesn’t tell you what you make on things, doesn’t post your grades, and then grades extremely unreasonable, I feel the need to vent. I do apologize.
Well, I think I will stop here for today. Sorry this was extremely long or not long enough. I’m hoping to write another post after finals are over with. I’ll let you guys know how everything went!
Thanks for reading! Much love! xxxx
