Girl From the North Country: Back to School

Hey everyone! I'm really excited today, because today is my first day back at school! It feels like it's been a long time since I've been to school, but really it's only been a two week break. I also have to take into consideration though that I went back home to Alaska for about 10 days before that though, too. Anyways, I'm excited to be busy again and I'm really determined this term to get good grades. I always say that at the beginning of every term, but this time I feel like I really mean it. Last term I didn't get the best of grades in a few of my classes, and it really made me feel guilty and horrible. I definitely don't want to feel like that again!

My favorite part about college is that you three (or in my case, four, because I'm doing summer classes) first day of school outfits! And then you also have to take into account the fact that you have multiple different classes. I love getting dressed for school. Going to school for fashion marketing, it's fun to get dressed up and express myself, and I love seeing how others do the same. School clothes shopping was always the best time of year for me growing up, because I didn't live anywhere near a mall or clothing store. I had to wait until August to go shopping. Once I got older I was allowed to take more plane rides into the city, but those are really expensive. Anyways, that being said, the first day of school is always exciting for me! New clothes, fresh notebooks, new classes, new subjects - It's like a mini new beginning, and I love that. :)
