End of The First Half of The Semester

 Mid Terms and Plans

        With the end of the first half of the semester coming up midterms are starting to come in. The homework that I'm getting has decreased a lot but now I am having to study for these big exams. Along with this I am stating to have more practices which is making me busy. This is where my time management skills need to kick in.

        The good thing is that my roommates also have mid terms and most of us have classes together. So we have decided to start studying with each other so we can high marks on our exams. This makes studying way more enjoyable because at least we are doing something we don't like to do, together. On a better note the NFL season is in full swing now.

        This has given me and my roommates some excitement on a Monday and Thursday nights. With football going on that means the of the best parts of the year has started, fantasy football. This has me and my roommates stressing every week because we are all in a league playing against each other. This experience has brought us all closer together making school way more fun. 

        The most exciting part of all of this though is the break that we are getting once we get though mid terms. Its only a 5 day break but it's more than enough time to be able to go visit my family back home. This has me really excited because it has been a while sense I've been back to Chicago and my family is getting together for it. Im going to be able to watch some of my brother and cousins basketball games which is great because they come here and support me when I play. All I have to do now is pass these mid terms.

Last week Before Finals

 The Home Stretch     With only one more week to go until finals and I'm starting to get nervous. Most of my classes I have a good grade so im not that worried about them, but there are 2 classes that I'm nervous about the final for. It also doesn't help that im trying to study but influenza is going around the school. I have been sick 2 times in the past week.  This is also effecting my extracurriculars because I am not able to participate. making it  to class has been extremely difficult because of this but I am managing. There are some things to look forward too though.      I am excited to get all of my finals done though because I want to go home and see my family. Also getting this break is going to be amazing because school is draining me. All finals does is make students stress out about their grades and I am ready for that to be over. The only part im not looking forward too is not being able to play volleyball over break. I feel like sitting at home doing nothing

Spring Time

      With spring in full swing allergies and illnesses are starting to run rampant. Me and my roommates have been hit pretty hard with this. 8 of the 12 people in my suite are currently sick, this includes me. Being sick at the end of the school year is difficult because bringing yourself to do all your activities for the day is really difficult.     Also with summer around the corner spring cleaning is coming into play. Spring cleaning is a 50/50 chance of  the clean being done quick or finding some nasty stuff that you never knew was there. Fortunately we were clean enough throughout the year so our clean didn't take too long and their was no lingering trash.     To end us off I wanted to talk about the MLB season so far. More particularly the fact that my favorite team, the Oakland A's are horrible. They have the worst roster and record in baseball and they expect the fans to help them pay for a brand new stadium. I think they should focus on not being the worst team before

Move In Week To Begin My Sophomore Year

August 29, 2022   First Blog Post   Kevin Fiedler CO 280    My Fist Week of School Hello, I am a sophomore student at Mount Mercy University. This year I got to move out of the freshman dorms that had no AC and moved to the sophomore and above dorm. I cannot tell you how nice it was when I walked into my new room for the first time and felt the air conditioner running. I got really excited knowing I wouldn't be sweating in my own room during the first few weeks of school this year. I just moved in this past Sunday and gave myself a few days to get situated before the school year kicks off. The first few days were fun spending time with my new roommates and decorating our rooms together. That fun didn’t last long though because we knew school was right around the corner. The time for all fun and games was ending, and the second chapter of our college school life was starting. Going to bed on that Tuesday night knowing that I had to wake up early the next day for my first class was n
