<\/a>If you didn\u2019t know it, there is an art to scheduling your classes. It\u2019s a secret that is difficult to get a hold of, but once you do, you learn that it can change your entire BU experience. Whenever scheduling season comes around the corner, I think about my first time doing it during my orientation. To be blunt, I had no idea what the hell I was doing. My first semester was a disaster in terms of scheduling. Nothing made sense. I\u2019d say that by my second semester, I kind of began to figure out what exactly I wanted in a schedule, and trying to stay as modest as possible, I\u2019m now a scheduling wizard.<\/p>\n

Explaining how to schedule well is a whole other blog post, but I wanted to take the time to tell you how important\/incredible it is to schedule with intent AND your heart. This year, I\u2019m a senior, and I have all of my requirements totally over and done with, meaning I can fill up my last two semesters with classes I really love and care about. COM really promotes following what you\u2019re passionate about, and careful scheduling is really helping me to do that.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always had a love and a knack for photography. My mother is a photojournalist, so I pretty much grew up with a camera around my neck. When I first came to school, I became so consumed with my classes and ROTC and working that I ended up pushing my camera aside. Now, I\u2019m taking two photography classes, and am having the time of my life. I\u2019ve never been so happy. I take my camera everywhere I go.\u00a0 But, even though I\u2019m having such an awesome time now, I really wish I hadn\u2019t given it up (so to speak) the past three years.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let yourself lose the things you love. Yes, do your homework and study and all that, but make sure you leave time for the things that excite you.<\/p>\n

To put it simply, I\u2019ll never let my camera go again.<\/p>\n
