Where has the time gone?
It wasn't that long ago when I first entered Medlin Hall as a freshman. I was 18 and fresh out of the high school life in small-town Kentucky. Then suddenly, BAM, I found myself going from a school of 242 to one of over 4,000 where there were more people from Lagos, Nigeria, than from my entire home state. Ironic, since Lee is just in the next state over from Kentucky...
I gotta pack, but here's all I've been through in a numerical nutshell:
- 3 majors (math ed to intercultural studies to anthropology)
- 4 roommates (Maurice H., Sworup R., Matt B., Nate H.)
- Over 61 credit hours (would've been 65 had I not withdrawn from Calc II)
- 3 B's :-(
- Dozens of papers, tests, and quizzes
- Thousands of calories burned from schoolwork stress (LOL)
- 8 intramural tournaments (sand volleyball, soccer, 9-ball (twice), dbls. 8-ball, bowling (twice), spades)
- 1 intramural win (9-ball)
- Dozens of volleyball, basketball, and soccer matches
- 20-odd open dorms
- 2 Dorm Wars
- 1 Dorm Wars win (more like DOMINATION! GO MEDLIN!)
- Over 50 Nigerian friends
- Over 100 international friends
- HUNDREDS of friends in general (180 to 1,088 on Facebook in two years)
- 1 AMAZING college experience
Anyway, I need to finish packing. Leaving to go home for the summer at 1:30. Will post more of a college reminiscence later.
