College Life

So, what could be more exciting then college, right? I mean: independence, responsibility, being treated like an adult, being in charge of yourself, making new friends, finding love, drinking... What could possibly be wrong about college life?
Well the things that are wrong with college life are as follows: independence, responsibility, being treated like an adult, being in charge of yourself, making new friends, finding love, drinking. Yeah. Clichéd as it sounds, the very problem with college life is all the things that make it great. Honestly, since starting college in August, I have yet to drink alcohol. I have been to a cast party at a Senior's house (where alcohol was served "BYOB if you want to drink" and everybody was cool with you not drinking if you didn't want to), and I have seen my roommate wasted. I have no personal experience with how alcohol makes you feel. However, when my roommate (a little,120-pound, 5-foot-nothing, girl, who had never drunk anything in her life) came back one night after a party where she had a Four Loco, I swore to stay alcohol free.
But aside from alcohol and all the bad things that I can do (which everyone already knows, and if you don't then go google it and get a lecture from someone else). I'm doing really well. For those of you that do not know me personally here's a little about my college life: I live on campus, I'm a Creative Writing and Theater Arts double major, I'm in my school's Honors College, and I'm considering going into Pre-Law (not a major, but it does involve taking some legal studies classes).

I've been doing pretty well adjusting to college life. Though, sadly, my writing had gone by the wayside. But I am back now. Hopefully I can stay up to date with this blog again. One of my classes is requiring me to write a "creative piece dealing with the theme of the double". So that's what I'm doing.

I'm also working on some auditions in theater and looking at a couple more places that I might submit stories to. One of the novellas I've been working on for a while is going pretty well. And I've decided that as of today I will start NaNoWriMo (national novel writing month). Sure I'm a few days late, but that's what makes it a challenge. I will keep y'all updated through Facebook and twitter.

I think that's all for now...

Ciao!
