It’s hard to believe that I’m home on winter break and have now successfully completed my first semester at Holy Cross. The time has absolutely flown by and I am so excited to see what new experiences my spring semester will bring. Congratulations to those seniors who went ED and have received their acceptances! I found out December 3rd of last year and was beyond relieved to know where I would be spending the next four years of my life. For those still waiting or those who did not get the news they were hoping for, hang in there and know that whatever happens will work out in the end. It can be stressful, but when it’s all over it’s the best feeling.
On another note, I have a piece of news to share with you all regarding another activity I will be doing next semester. I received an email earlier today saying that I was chosen to be one of four opinions editors for The Crusader! I’m really excited and can’t wait to get started working on HC’s student-run newspaper. Writing is one of my favorite hobbies so I’m thrilled to be able to continue writing not only here on the blog, but for The Crusader as well. I will be sure to fill you all in on how this goes next semester (perhaps a blog?).
Now, as I sit here at my desk, at home in New York, I can’t help but reflect on a fantastic first semester at Holy Cross. Academically and socially, HC has proven to be everything that I wanted in my college experience. I am very grateful to be a part of the Holy Cross community and cannot wait for the many semesters that await me up on Mount Saint James. For now, I want to wish you all the happiest and healthiest of holidays, and thank you for reading!
