My freshman year was pretty good. I was pretty shy going into college so it was initially hard to meet people. I was involved on campus from day 1 though, so eventually I became more confident and outgoing. The spring of my freshman year was the best...that was when I really met and bonded with the people I was closest to throughout college (and even now after graduation). I look back though and think about how naive I was in regards to some things and it's pretty funny. Like someone else mentioned, I can't believe the crazy hours I used to keep. I have no idea how I pulled it together taking a very time consuming courseload, routinely surviving on almost no sleep, staying out all the time...Thankfully I was one of the lucky few who managed to keep my grades up....no way would my parents have let me come back to school (where they were paying out of state tuition) if I hadn't. As far as ranking my freshman year against the other years of school....I really think each year got better and better....
