My College Experience (So Far) at The University of Arkansas


It has been a while since I have written a post. It has probably been because college has taken up most of my time. So far The University of Arkansas has been an amazing experience. I have meet so many new friends, gone outside my comfort zone, and had so many new experience. Oh the picture above is this trail that leads to my dorm. It is so pretty especially in the fall. With that being said I am going to tell you about my experience at The University of Arkansas so far.

As i said in my last post I live in Pomfret, and that there have alot of fire alarms go off and they still do. Here is a picture of Pomfret when the fire alarm went off on a school night at like 2am. They didn't let us in the building for 30 minutes. There was also an incident where the whole power on campus turned out. Yeahh... it turned off! The power was out for quite some time about 3-4 hours. The power went out because a squirrel got in to the power-box and turned off all the power in the university.That poor squirrel got fried :(

 So far I have only gone to one football game. It was University of Arkansas vs Texas Tech University sadly we lost 24-35. But overall it was a pretty fun game. The student section is pretty fun, because everyone is screaming and chanting. The tailgating is pretty fun too! Whenever there is a football game the college campus is just crazy with people screaming and its super fun.



I have also made some amazing friends throughout my college experience and awesome things i've got to do. I went to Little Rock Arkansas with my friends, I went to a bonfire with my friends too which was so much fun!

So that is my college experience so far but hey i'm only a freshman my college experience is just beginning.

New York Adventure

I recently just came back from visiting New York. I use to live there when I was in kindergarten, and after twelve years I returned. I did several things in New York: Broadway, Central Park, 9/11 Memorial, Times Square. I was only there for a couple days but I had an amazing time coming back.

This was in Central Park this park is very large and you can spend a whole day in this beautiful place and not get bored. When I went it was on a Saturday and there were so many events and they were televising a contest. They were giving away food and drinks and so many things, so you will never be bored in Central Park.

This was also in Central Park it's called the  Bethesda Fountain and Terrace. This place is so pretty and there were many movies and shows filmed here: Gossip Girl, Sex in the City, Enchanted and so many more.

One of the days I was in New York City I had to see a Broadway musical, so I went to see the Lion King. The whole musical was amazing it was really a memorable experience. I grew up listing to Broadway music, but watching a real Broadway production was amazing. I definitely recommend watching any musical that's on Broadway.

Another place I visited was the 9/11 Memorial where the Twin Towers once stood. When living in New York I had several neighbors who were greatly effected by this tragedy. The memorial was very beautiful something worth going to. 



















I had an amazing time in New York and would totally recommend going to such a beautiful city. (:
