My first day at Anoka Ramsey Community College

My first day at ARCC I attended classes on campus Wednesday August 25, 2009. The day after most staff and students roamed the halls, intently listened to lectures and found friends from last semester. 

This day also marked the first day I have ever attended ARCC. I was unfamiliar with the staff, campus and the city of Coon Rapids, home of ARCC. 

I was not intimidated by the unfamiliarity of ARCC because I have been in situations lacking certainty many times before. I felt ready for what was to come. The long lectures, the extensive research and late night study sessions were awaiting my arrival. I felt a slight progression to where I want to be, a graduate. 

I started my morning with an introduction to Philosophy and ended with the review of simple, well-known materials of Astronomy. I spent more time dipping my toes in different areas of the campus in efforts to find appropriate areas for studying, researching and common conversation.  

I ended my day with a visit to the student center enjoying music and announcements of campus happenings.
