The Swing of Things

(Academics, Athletics, Class of 2015) Permanent link All Posts

The fall athletics season is officially over, and winter is starting to kick in here at the Academy. For me, this means the bittersweet end of soccer and the beginning of a more academically focused period. Soccer took up the majority of my time in the last two months, however it was more than worth it. I made great friends and really enjoyed getting to know the upperclassmen on the team who provide nice tips and advice on how to survive as a 4/c cadet. It’s also nice to know that there are people looking out for you. Playing soccer also kept me in shape after swab summer and eased me into staying fit for the rest of the school year.

I finally feel like things are starting to feel routine and normal here. I always have homework and projects to finish, which makes the weeks fly by. I honestly did not believe all of the officers who told us that we’d go from Swab Summer, to the fall semester, to finals in the blink of an eye. It goes by fast, and you really just have to try to take advantage of everything the Academy offers while you can!
