A New Semester – Matt

03/09/2020 1:18 AM

With the start of a new year brings the start of a new semester! Unlike high school, your classes change each semester, so the start of a new semester gives you a totally new schedule. New professors to meet, new classmates to work with, and a whole new set of classes. The first part of the semester is always interesting to navigate as you have to get used to the new schedule. It’s nice though having a little change to shake up the new semester, and if you had a tough class the semester prior, it’s very nice to come back and not have to worry about that anymore. I had a very rough math class last semester, so it’s nice to have that done and out of the way. It is a shame though that I can’t sleep in until 10:00 am every day like during Winter Break.

The start of the semester is also a good time to start some new habits. Whether that be going to the gym, changing up your study habits, or joining a new organization. It’s always nice to have a new semester to help jump start some of those changes that you want. But the best thing about a new semester is coming back to all of your friends at Bradley. It’s very nice to go back home during the break to see family and friends, but I always love those first couple weeks of the semester. Seeing those people that you have not been with for over a month is always very fun. A new semester always brings its own challenges but is also a perfect opportunity to spice things up at the start of a new year!
