Almost There

I know, I know....as the weeks drag on and it gets closer to high school graduation, I have become increasingly lazy about blogging. I apologize, and promise that this is not a common occurrence and I will TRY to blog more in the summer and in college

Speaking of university, I thought I would post a bit about my plans for next year. In case you haven't heard, I have committed to the wonderful Elon University for the 2009-2010 Year. I'm super excited to be a "Fighting Phoenix". In case you didnt know:
  • Elon is a small, masters-level university in Burlington, NC (about 20 minutes from Greensboro and 40 minutes from the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area) with an undergraduate enrollment of about 5,000
  • They are ranked #2 of ALL Southern Masters-level universities and have won numerous awards for their study abroad program and student-teacher ratios, as well as being the #1 Up and Coming University in the country!
  • They are a Division 1 school (Division 1-AA in Football!) and are in the Southern Conference (SoCon), so you all better be rooting for the Phoenix! Woo!
  • There communications program (my intended major is Broadcast Journalism) is fantastic! and I will have so many opportunities to do on and off camera work beginning in my freshman year

It's gonna be an AWESOME year!....I just have to graduate first :/

It is getting closer and closer to the end of my high school career and subsequent graduation. However, these two weeks are imperative as I have the dreaded AP Exams! If I score a 4 or higher on any of the exams, I receive college credit for next year! So I have been doing a lot of studying in order to wipe out some of those tedious classes. I'm 3/5 as we speak, as I have completed my AP Statistics, AP English Lit, and AP US History exams, with AP Psychology and AP Macroeconomics ahead next week. Following the final two exams, I am FINISHED and just have to wait till graduation. Wish me luck!
