College. It's a lot different than high school. For one I've never had to write a 10-page paper before, and I'm not looking forward to it now, but oh well, I need a degree. Other than a lot more writing and studying, college isn't as scary as everyone made me think it was. "Oh it'll either make or break you." "It's going to test your boundaries." "You won't come out the same person." You all are a bunch of exaggerating loud mouths. Maybe it will make or break me, but in small ways. Yes it's tested boundaries, but not big ones, yet. The biggest thing that's been tested right now is the amount of sleep I can go without and how comfortable I can get with riding the city bus, which also is not as scary as I was raised to think. I hope I don't come out the same person though. I want to come out with a degree!
Another thing college does is make you have a lot of group projects. I've never had so many group projects all in one semester, in one week, before. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just me working on this, but having to sync your schedule with other people's schedules and then them having something come up and making you waste your time there is just so frustrating, but you have to include them because they're part of your group. 
Okay enough talking about college and me.
How are all of your school years going so far? Are you all eating well? Sleeping well? Is everyone okay? I'd love to hear your stories so far in the comments below.

Sincerely,
Kim

Good to hear you're doing alright, dear. People do tend to make any kind of education seem like it'll be the last thing you do if you don't study every hour. However I find the amount of homework and such preposterous. School work is for at school, you don't see someone taking the dishes with them to wash those during class right. I hope you're getting enough rest though, it's important. And that you can do fun things, of course.
Is there a certain field you're studying? I'm curious.
As for me, uh, haven't gone to school in about two years now I think. Been trying to learn a bit of Latin online however. Whenever I can find the motivation... Furthermore slept horribly, with reasons, but I wouldn't want to make this about me. I have my own journals for that.
