This Monday, I start my senior year at the University of North Texas. I can't believe that it has already been four years since I graduated high school. There is this relief I feel that I have almost completed my bachelor's degree in History, and I only have forty-six credits left. There is alot of hard work that goes into completing your degree. Many times I wanted to drop a class or just plain give up. It is totally worth it in the end. When I started college, there was a part of me that was completely freaked out by being in a new environment. Even when I finished my first two semester, someone told me that they did not know if I was going to make it. I know I proved them wrong. That really hurt my feelings, because there have been times in my life that people have made fun of me. When I was in grade school my classmates made fun of me because I had a leaning disability. I do not think that I have ever forgiven those kids and the people that had told me that I could not do something. I heard people say when people say that to you, that just makes you work harder. Sometimes if you work as hard as you can it will usually pay off in the end. I know that this blog says its the day in the life of a history major, but today I felt like this post needed to be some history of my own life.
XOXO,
Christina
