This week has been pretty stressful actually, I had a lot of work to do and had my first midterm on Thursday and that was pretty stressful and nerve wracking. It was an in class essay and I mean I know how to write an essay but still I was nervous about it and halfway through I had second doubts about how I structured my essay but you know what, it’s over now and I have to stop obsessing about it.

Along with studying and stressing out about school I have gone to a few on campus activities. I have gone to a few study sessions with my FIG and they were actually really helpful. It was nice to be able to study with others, you know solidarity sister.

Another on campus activity I went to was hall elections in the basement of my dorm building. I went with some friends in my hall because our RA really wanted people from our hall to you know actually participate. It was somewhat interesting, I guess, I mean it got loooonng but hey we got to vote for the people who are going to represent us sooo that’s cool.

I also went to the street fair the other day and that was probably one of my favorite activities I’ve gone to on campus so far. I have gone to my share of street fairs and saturday markets but I found it really cool that there was one right in basically the middle of campus. I have had the opportunity to go to the street fair a couple of times these past few days. I went with my friend when we had time between classes and it was fun just to be able to look at all the booths. I also went back to the street fair this afternoon for lunch with a couple of friends and it was a lot of fun. There were so many different food options that it was so hard to choose just one thing to eat. I ended up getting a vegan hot dog, fries, and a strawberry lemonade and it was all so delicious. Once we all got food we decided to walk around the different booths which were selling a bunch of different things that you are not sure if you actually need but you know you buy it because why not? Like today I ended up buying a 3d poster of a tree that changes seasons when you move it around for ten dollars. And oh my god it is so cool and I just can’t get over it.

 

I was really glad that I decided to go to the street fair today because it was good to just get out of the dorms and do something somewhat out of the ordinary!
