A Gamecock by Nature

Over Christmas break, I worked like a dog to put away money and spend time with my friends.  Now that I am back at school and almost a month into the semester I have come to realize that my time gets committed very quickly.  As I go to sleep each night, my mind can't stop running through lists of things to do.  I've come to a point where I can't get in bed at night without making a written list of things I have to do the next morning. 

This semester I am taking 5 courses: Corporate Finance, Investment/Porfolio Analysis (Finance), International Trade, Business Law and International Organizations.  They're all definitely a challenge.  I have multiple semester long projects, exams and quizzes regularly.  The funny thing is, as difficult as they all appear to be, I'm truly enjoying all of my courses.  All of my professors are extremely qualified and have the semester organized. 

On top of classes, I'm busy staying involved with Delta Sigma Pi!  This is going to be the semester to top all previous semesters.  I have so many weekend adventures to look foward to between LEAD Provincial (Conference) in Alabama this month, Formal in Charleston and Spring Fling in April. Of courses there's going to be tons of professional speakers, pledge activities, and other events in between.  I'm also playing on two basketball teams this semester and applying for internships with my spare minutes.

So your question is probably when do I sleep!  In college, six hours during the week is a blessing.  Weekends are where I catch up on my Zzzzs. 

Well for those of you who are busy applying like the high school senior who commented on my last post, keep your grades up.  Grades are so important and they really do follow you for a long time.  Even though USC is now only accepting applications on a space availability basis, don't be discouraged.  For those of you who have already applied, let me know if you have an questions about what to expect.  As always GO GAMECOCKS!
