spring
It is finally warming up and everyone is taking full advantage of the good weather, including the animals. The squirrels are starting to come out of hiding and geese are walking around the residential campus. I cannot believe my freshman year is almost over. I just picked out my classes for next year with my advisor and I have tentatively decided my major/minors. I am thinking of majoring in communications with a double minor in photography and spanish. Next year I am taking video production (a comm class), basic photo (comm/art class), creative writing: nonfiction (english), and a directed study in piano. I am still deciding about my classes because I am not sure if I want to take creative writing if it is nonfiction. They offer a creative writing: fiction class but it is only in the spring. I am hoping the colleges of the fenway website posts the spanish classes from the other schools before my registration time because I am not interested in any of the spanish classes here. If so, I may take spanish at another school instead of creative writing: nonfiction or my directed study in piano. I am also questioning taking piano even though I have played since I was five up until this first year of college. I finished the whole suzuki series up through book 7, but I never got to have my book 7 recital which is disappointing. Now I have forgotten all the book 7 songs so I would have to relearn them. I really want to complete it though because it is the final and only book left to complete in the series of the suzuki books.
The other day I got asked to be a mentor for the M.O.S.T. program which is for multicultural students who might come to Simmons. I remember coming last year before I decided to attend Simmons and I had a great time so I am definitely going to be a host this year. I host a student overnight and we attend a play and other activities to get them aquainted with the school and the great opportunities Boston has to offer. I am excited to get perspective students involved in the Simmons community. I will be hosting my student overnight from Friday April 7 to Saturday April 8.
