Update on Life at CMU

 The last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. I had to get tested and quarantine because of COVID twice back to back weeks! It was pretty stressful and I was by myself for over a week the second time, definitely not my idea of a good time. But thankfully today I was able to go back to my classes and be around people again. I am hoping to get back on track with everything soon and keep getting to explore the area and meet new people! This week I have an exam and an eight page research paper due though so I know it is gonna keep me busy.

    Hey Nic! Sorry to hear you had to quarantine back-to-back weeks. Hopefully, you can catch up on exploring the area and meeting new people in these next couple of weeks. Good luck with your exam and research paper!

Week of March 14

 This week has been pretty tough and it’s been hard to focus on school but I got to go to Estes National Park for a campus retreat over the weekend. It was a lot of fun because I got to meet new people and I was able to finally see a good bit of snow. There was probably about six inches of snow which was the most I have seen in a long time. I also had a final for one of my half semester classes and I am a little worried about it but hopefully I was able to do well.

Week of March 1st

 This week has been pretty chill overall. I had a genetics exam on Friday that I am a little nervous about,  and a Kinesiology exam that is due Sunday but hopefully I will do pretty well on them. I am also still trying to catch up in a couple classes but should be back on track soon! For fun this week I have been playing a card game called Magic the Gathering with a few friends that I have made through my church. That has been a nice way to relax and hangout when I am not busy with school work so I have been grateful for that. Hopefully, soon I can have the opportunity to see some other places in nature like the Grand Mesa and even go snowboarding or skiing!

Why NSE?

 I chose NSE because it was a great opportunity for me to travel and gain new experiences while studying away without having to go abroad. It also gave me the opportunity to find schools with my major (exercise science) which I could not find with study abroad. There were three school in NSE that had my major a school in Alabama, a school in Massachusetts, and the one I chose Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado. I decided to go to CMU because I wanted to leave the south east and I love the outdoors and mountains so I knew I would have a great time, although I am still not prepared for how cold it is gonna be. My application to NSE was basically on a whim though, I found out, applied, and did all my paperwork the weekend right before it was all due. It was a bit of a scramble to try and get it all done, but I figured that if I could finish it all and get accepted in that short of a timeframe then it was meant to be. Over the past nine months or so now I have been prepar
