When you go to college, keep this in mind: the breaks are a lie.
You’ll rarely get a homework-free break. Even if the teacher gives you an assignment that wouldn’t be due until a month later, that still puts pressure on you. It plants a nagging seed in your brain that bugs you, whispering, “You should be working on meeeee~.”
Just wanted to throw that out there so that some of you would develop better time-management skills than I have.

CeceliaHi! My name is Cecelia Meyer and I am a transfer freshman here at Fontbonne, currently majoring in social sciences/strategic communications! I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO but I am a southern belle at heart! I can blow your mind with my history trivia skills. You can find me drinking a strong cup of coffee, listening to some Frank Sinatra, while color coding my over-sized agenda.
QuortniHello everyone, I am Quortni (pronounced like Courtney). I am a Junior at Fontbonne and also a transfer student from Indiana State University. This is my second semester at Fontbonne and although I attended ISU for almost 3 years, I was born and raised here in Saint Louis, Mo. I am a Psychology major and a Biology minor, and hoping to pursue a career in research as well as become a practicing Art Therapist. I am pretty outgoing and open to making new friends and meeting new people, so I am VERY excited to be blogging for the University so stay tuned!!! :)
