Goodbye Summer... Hello Senior Year!

Hey everyone! It's back in the school mode now! This past summer was amazing. When my internship ended, I moved back to the Jersey shore and continued waitressing. I wasn't able to get to the beach as much as I hoped to, but luckily enough my restaurant was located on the beach so I at least got to see it every morning. During the month of July when I would ride my bike to work, I would be able to watch the sunrise along the coast and see the dolphins riding the waves. It was truly amazing. Here is one of the pictures of sunrise that I took on my way to work.

Well now it's back to classes. This semester I will be taking 6 classes, each 3 credits a piece, as well as an additional 2 credits which is accounted for my Senior Thesis Project. It will be a pretty heavy-loaded semester with classes and working. The one thing that I like about my classes this semester is that they all directly relate in one way or another to what I might potentially would like to do when I'm older. During my spare time, I will be in the Biotechnology lab conducting additional research similar to what I completed over the summer. Hopefully within these next couple of weeks I can figure out what I wish to do with myself after this year. Right now I am debating whether I should go to graduate school or into the work field. That will be my next headache that I have to deal with.

I still find it hard to believe that summer is over and I find it even harder to believe that I will be a senior. It seems like only yesterday I was moving into Hillside (the dorm I lived in freshman year). These years really are the best and they do fly by just like everyone says. I’ll definitely have more to say once my classes get more in-depth. Hope everyone had an amazing summer!
