Looking at Boston from the Prudential Center!

So it’s finally starting to get nice out again! Being from Maine, I’m use to the New England weather here, but it’s always nice to see it warm up to. Another great thing to think about is that in less than a month, I’ll be home for the summer! I enjoy the fact that Wentworth students get out at the end of April. It’s nice to know that I have some time to get home before everyone else from college does. More job opportunities for me!

Anyway, last weekend it was nice out and I decided to go up on top of the Prudential Building, and what a view it was! It was a great day for it and I got some great shots with my camera. Definitely worth taking some time to check it out.

Accepted student’s day is in a week or so and I look forward to sharing with you all what it’s like being in college! Hopefully you all have lots of questions, because we should have lots of answers for you! There are plenty of great reasons to go to Wentworth, plus living in the wonderful city of Boston, there is always something to do. So, I hope to see lots of accepted students at the accepted students day! Can’t wait to share all the wonderful things about freshman year with you all!

Well second semester has been in full swing for awhile now, and I’ve gotten the hang of college. Now that all that’s worked out, it’s time to start getting involved! One of the great things about being at Wentworth is that there is so much to do on campus, as well as off campus. This semester I decided to join several different groups and I ended up being selected as a Student Ambassador, I was chosen to be a member of Phi Sigma Pi (a national honors fraternity) and I am also currently in the Wentworth Leadership Institute. With all of these things going on, I can now say that I am getting involved on campus!

One of the things that I have done, as well as something that I recommend is that a lot of people suggest getting involved as soon as possible, but what I have found that works best is that taking your time and getting to know your environment is the best way! At least for me. It allows me to learn more about my surroundings and get comfortable where I am, and then I can get involved on campus.

One thing that I’ve learned is that getting involved can be scary at first as there are so many new things going on, but once you feel comfortable in your new surrounding, I recommend getting involved! It’s the best way to meet new people and make great connections that will last a lifetime!

Well I survived the first semester of college and it was a lot better than what I had expected it to be! Moving to a whole new place and meeting new people can be a challenge at first, but truthfully after the first few hours of getting to Wentworth, I was already excited to meet new people and live in the city of Boston! One of the great things about being in Boston was that I get to meet lots of new people not from just Wentworth, but from all of the surrounding colleges. Another bonus was that I had some old high school friends who also went to school in Boston. It was a great start being able to see old friends, and meet new ones.

After I got into the groove of things, I couldn’t believe how quickly the first semester flew by! Within weeks I had learned the city, got into the routine of classes, and became very good friends with my suite-mates. All the worries that I had at the beginning of college were soon gone and I was enjoying my time a lot.

My first semester of college couldn’t have gone any better and I’m glad that I chose to live in Boston, it’s a great city. Now that second semester is here I can only imagine how quickly it will go by! They say things go by fast when you’re having fun, and I most certainly feel as if this is the case with each college semester. I’m only on my second semester, but I’m already excited for the next 3 years of college. It’s a great way to become more independent and learn more about what it’s like to grow up!

So welcome to my blog, and I hope you enjoy following me through my time here at Wentworth. I’m sure it will be a great one, and I can’t wait to share it with you.
