The Beginning... (#clichetitles)


Well hello there!


I don’t know if you can tell, but this whole blog thing is new to me.

But here’s the thing: these days, everything is new to me.
Because in ten short days…
-I’ll be living in a new town going to a new school full of new people!
-I’ll be living away from my fantastic mom, amazing friends, and sweet kitties for the first time in my life.
-I’ll be balancing my own college kid budget.
-I’ll be taking crazy classes like Swahili.
-I’ll be using public transit and a community bathroom. (Not so glamorous…)
-I’ll be attempting to be a productive citizen and make a noticeable difference in the world around me!
-And I’ll be documenting it all here on my brand spankin’ new blog in hopes that my friends, family, and random creepers can keep up with all of the happy Harvard happenings that will be happening to me. =)

So stay on the lookout! I can’t wait to start posting about the crazy things that are about to start happening in my life. In the coming weeks you can expect to see a lot of posts about goodbyes, last minute shopping, and awe at my beautiful new home! I am so excited about all that is happening, and I am even more excited to share it with you! =)

  1. alyssa! i loved this blog because I can relate to it a good bit, and i wish you the best of luck! i know you will excel! one note about the public transport- you will learn to love it pretty quickly, i promise! it's much cheaper and less hassle than a car. As far as college kid budget goes-the no car deal helps a good bit, but also just eating in helps a ton too! i've had to get used to that ;) have fun in Swahili!

  3. Kaitlyn, I am so glad you commented because I have been creeping your blog lately, haha. =) Thanks for the tips and encouragement! I am so excited about the wonderful things going on in your life! I hope you are having a wonderful time in Australia so far and that you will grow in all the ways that you want to! Ride a kangaroo for me! ;-)

    Clair, I need to make an "all of the above" category...
