Freshman Year by the Numbers

31 credits taken
130 hours spent on intro to ChemE . . . don’t ask how I know this
3 finals taken in Barton

25 trips to the climbing wall – 23 at Lindseth (8 for class), 2 at Noyes (1 for class)
14 laps around Beebe Lake

69 pep band events – the breakdown: 25 rehearsals, 1 men’s lacrosse alumni dinner, 1 field hockey game, 1 volleyball game, 1 hockey scrimmage, 9 women’s hockey games, 14 men’s hockey games, 3 women’s basketball games, 5 men’s basketball games, 2 wrestling matches, 3 women’s lacrosse games, and 4 men’s lacrosse games

3 episodes of Star Trek watched

35 hours worked for Cornell Productions
4 concerts heard (from backstage) in Bailey Hall

2 classes skipped – they were both swim classes when it was about 3 degrees outside, and I could miss four classes for the semester without failing

$847.24 spent on textbooks for the year (most expensive single item: the $173.50 general chemistry textbook)

62 blog posts written (the 63rd was written after I checked out from Cornell for the summer)

1 laundry casualty (a sock)

And I think that wraps up my freshman year of college. (In other news, my brother graduated from high school recently and will be heading to the University of Chicago in the fall. He could’ve come to Cornell . . . )
