It's about that time every year, when the semester is almost over. I'm sure that I can speak for a lot of people when I say this semester has been a rough one. Now all everyone is looking forward to is winter break. I can say that I am especially excited for many reasons. If possible and considering they make it, I can go watch St. Thomas Aquinas play in the State Finals on December 14th. Three days before Christmas, I'm going to the Miami Heat game with my family and I'll get to see my best friend as she is going too. But the one thing I'm looking forward to most is New Year's. Not only is it a new time to start fresh, but also I'm going to the Orange Bowl to see my FSU Seminoles play and win!
As much as I, and everyone else, are ready for this semester to be over, I can say I've learned a great amount of things that can help me in the future or just for personal enjoyment. Coming into this class, I was a little hesitant about the fact that it was based around sports. After listening to how many people actually played a sport made me feel a little lost because I never did and didn't really feel any special connection to sports. But this class made me realize that I do and I can honestly say that I watch and follow sports a great deal more than I ever have. This class also taught me about writing and analyzing things by breaking them down and seeing a different perspective of things. I'm really glad that I decided to keep it rather than dropping it for a different one. If I had dropped it, I never would have realized the great appreciation I have for sports and I wouldn't change it for the world.
