It’s finally time to continue with the “CCK Goes to College” story.
As I wrote in Chocolate Covered Katie’s College Story: Part One, it was definitely a good choice to cut my losses and transfer schools; a bigger university with more class options was a much better fit for me. Right away, I made a lot of new friends and even joined a sorority for a year.
Questions of the Day:
Are you in college? High school? Done with school? And if you did go to college, how did you decide on your major? Did you ever change majors or transfer schools? And did you enjoy your school experience?
Yikes, that’s a lot of questions. Don’t feel like you have to answer every single one.
Unlike college, blogging isn’t a grade!
I just graduated from college last December (a semester early). I didn’t change my major but I did keep adding them and I end up graduating with three. Well, I did start out with an idea of maybe majoring or minoring in economics but after my first econ class I said HECK NO!
THREE majors? Holy cow, you are the ultimate of overachievers, girl! Give me some of whatever you’re drinking! 🙂
I’m in college, switched, about to hopefully do that again..It’s a little complicated. Schools in California are so impacted, it’s impossible to get in when places are closed for admission! :/ Glad you made the right decision for yourself!
You are so totally cute! No makeup and bed head? Ha! You should see me in the mornings. Then again, you don’t want to. Believe me! 😉 It’s bad. I think even my cat is scared of my morning look.
love that you were in a sorority! but yah i totally understand that it could take up too much time. i just pledged my freshman year, and it was the best thing I could have done, because it’s like instant friends! but it does take a lot of time, with meetings and service projects and sleepovers. but wait, it’s FUN even if it is a lot of time!
I’m a high school senior, spending MUCHO time researching colleges.
Same here :\ Where are you looking at?
I’m just starting university for the first time ever in 3 days!! I honestly never thought i’d be excited about going to university just up until recently either, i was sure i would hate it. But now i’m really looking forward to it 😀 The classes, the groups to join, and living in a big hotel-like building with tons of people my age.
And i can’t even tell you’re wearing no makeup. Seriously 🙂
Oh and that book deal thing would be awesome, if that’s what it is. One of my goals in life is to write a book someday.
But whatever it is, good luck! And have an awesome last year of college!
Thanks, Cate! And you too!! 🙂
I’m still in high school! My first day of junior year is tomorrow -__- But I’ve been researching colleges for like a YEAR already!
Glad your college switch worked out for the better! And can’t wait to hear your secret! I think I’m pretty good at keeping secrets; I used to just blurt things out without thinking but I’ve learned from experience to be a bit more cautious in what I tell people 😉
I love these pictures of some of your college memories 😀
I just started my last year of college. I’m a year “Behind” but I really don’t mind. Who’s rushing? I never did change my major, but I had to go through a general art program in my first year. After that we sbmitted another portfolio to see if we could get accepted into our majors of choice–my top one being sculpture. Thank goodness I got in! So far I’ve been enjoying my school experience; that’s why I’m not in a rush. But I’m definitely motivated to finish :p
I’m very good at keeping secrets. If someone tells me something and they trust me, I honor it 🙂
XOXO

I’m in high school, going into my senior year, finally! I’m enjoying school right now, but I don’t even know what I want to take in University yet :/ School is so stressful, but I can’t wait to be more independent and learn new things!
I think I’m good at keeping secrets (:
lol, I was in college for nine years (having just finished in May). I loved every second of it and wouldn’t have graduated at all if my advisor hadn’t made me! I’m actually still working at the school as a post-doc right now. Being in university is so much better than the real world could possibly be.
