I still can't believe it is the beginning of spring semester tomorrow and I am actually here, I am doing it! If you had told me 2 or 3 years ago that I would be in the middle of my sophomore year at Utah State I would have laughed in your face. It was only a dream that I had long forgotten about and never really hoped to achieve. I am doing it though and loving every minute of it! All the hard work and sacrifices that I have gone through and the help, love, and support my family has given me has all been worth it. I still have a long way to go but I am so proud that I have made it this far and I do plan on getting that degree. That very small 40,000+ dollar piece of paper. haha.
My goal this semester is to get a 4.0, something I have never achieved in my academic career but know I can accomplish, I will just need to apply myself. Plus I have the added motivation of Germany this summer that I can not go to if I don't get that 4.0. Another goal is to take institute this semester and actually attended it regularly. I have done a semester without institute and one with it and I am here to tell you all school is SOOO much more doable when I am in an institute class. It is such a nice and spiritual high in the middle of the day and the added motivation to keep going and that I am not alone.
Good luck to all my fellow USU buddies! This is going to be an awesome semester!
