The Happenings of Senior Year

It may seem as though I have forgotten about my poor, lonely blog. I keep finding other activities to occupy my time - mainly school, but I would be lying if I said that school work took up all my time.

Speaking of school, I am shocked at how quickly this semester is going by. My senior year will be over with before I know it! What will happen then? I'm not 100% sure myself, so for now I am just focusing on the present. My three classes this semester are the following: Software Engineering, Intro to Modeling (mathematical modeling...I'm not learning to walk the cat-walk), and American Sign Language. The first two classes are not very exciting, but I am really enjoying ASL. That's right - I am actually enjoying a class! I can honestly say this is my favorite class I have ever taken here at Redlands. I don't know what exactly it is about the subject, but I look forward to the class every week (it meets only once a week). It's fun, challenging, and learning about deaf culture is very interesting. Needless to say, I am continuing with American Sign Language II next semester.

Let's move on to the non-academic activities! In the last two months, I have...

Made new friends:

Sabrina, my roommate's sister

Received visits from old friends:

Kristen, Felicia, and I at the local brewery - Hangar 24

Visited Will during Fall break:

Taking a break from making tasty lasagna.

Attended the "Light the Night" walk:

Braved the mazes at Knott's Scary Farm:

Wouldn't have made it without Courtney's courage! ;)

Of course there were more events in the past two months than this, but these are the only ones I have pictures for. Overall, my senior year is going well, but it is going by too quickly. So much to do, so little time!
