I&#8217;m here for a Biology major and a psychology minor. I chose UMass Lowell because it was the perfect distance from home, I loved the atmosphere of the school and it worked out best financially. <\/span><\/span><b><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"color: #3d85c6\">I have no regrets in my decision<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> and I&#8217;m am so excited about all of the new people I have met. All of my current best friends are people that I have either met in class or that I worked with over the summer as an Orientation Leader (I hope some of you remember me! (I was the anorexic in the play&#8230;haha)) &nbsp;<\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Here on campus there are a lot of activities that I love doing. I recently rejoined the BioClub, which I love because we plan fun trips and do fundraisers that help people and the environment, which is something that is important to me! I was also on the women&#8217;s rugby team up until recently. Due to a hectic schedule I had to put it off until the spring, hopefully! Rugby is such a fun sport and for any girls that are reading this right now, you should all go and join! I&#8217;m not a big girl and I&#8217;m still standing! \ud83d\ude42 Sometimes I like to go to the gym and work out. Last year I did yoga and I LOVED it, but I can&#8217;t make it to the classes this year because they conflict with my schedule. I clearly need to set up my classes better next year!<\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Well now that you guys know about me, I want to know more about you! How is your semester going? I hope you guys use all of us as a resource to answer any questions that you may have! That&#8217;s why we are here!&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Just as a little tip, make sure you <b><span style=\"color: #351c75\">make time for yourself!<\/span><\/b> That is so important. My first semester I was swamped with classes and work and I was just constantly doing schoolwork. I ate really crappy food, barely slept and was sick all the time. The next semesters I made time for myself, joined rugby, and got a job and my health &amp; grades improved! So please, don&#8217;t be a stranger! You can ask any one of us questions or come to us if you need help with anything! Hope you have a great rest of the semester!&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b><span style=\"color: #0b5394\">Ciao!<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">-Cait \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\">&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.systems-thinking.org\/tmgmt\/tmgmt05.gif\" style=\"margin-left: 1em;margin-right: 1em\"><img loading=\"lazy\" border=\"0\" height=\"320\" src=\"http:\/\/www.systems-thinking.org\/tmgmt\/tmgmt05.gif\" width=\"304\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I hope everyone&#8217;s time here so far has been great!
