Turning Back the Clock

So it has been two days. Two long days and I feel like a freshman again.

I guess I should start at the beginning if this is to make any sense. I am a sophomore transfer student at Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. It took me a while to find this place. When I was a senior in high school in a small Massachusetts town I decided that I didn't want to be close to home - so I ran away. I applied to Elon University, a school in the middle of North Carolina - at least seven hours from anyone I knew.

It took only a few months for me to realize that I missed my friends, my family and the northeast. I found myself wishing that I had applied to Emerson and exactly two years after I applied to college the first time, I found myself applying a second time. I must say that it wasn't any easier the second time around.

But it was all worth it because here I am. So this blog is just to help me figure out where I'm going from here. All I can say is this is a chance for me to rewind the clock and try again somewhere new.
