Exeter Here i Come!!

There is officially 1 day left until we leave for Exeter! i am getting excited by the second. i bought almost everything i need and the last main thing i have to do is pack my bag. i just cant wait to go there and be independent and free for a whole 5 weeks!it just seems so amazing and exciting that's why Exeter is like the only thing on my mind these days. anyway Junisha, you needed help putting money on your Lion card right? well, first go to your Touchnet account (Exeter sent info about it on your parents E-Mail) and go on the deposits section, the drop down menu will be set to summer '11 and summer session, next press select and make a deposit to "summer deposit" and press select again, after that it will ask you to make a Payment Amount and that just means how much money do you want on

your account? finally select a payment method and follow the steps. its that

simple! hope i helped! anyway see you all on Sunday...Bye=)!

Exeter!!

I'm very excited to get away this summer and go to Exeter. Im looking forward to meeting new people and experiencing something new. But I have to admit that I am nerves and a bit scared. I have never been away from my family for so long, but I'm not so afraid to be away from them because I'm very independent. I just keep thinking of how much I'm going to miss my dog, I love him like if he was my own child. I am also not so sure how to set up my lion card and put money in it. Its very confusing to me, I would really appreciate it if someone were to help me out with that.

Almost there

I'm officially out of school and waiting until this weekend.I am leaving on the 2nd of July.My bags are packed and I'm worrying about the classes and how well will I get along with my roommate.I also wonder about if there will be other people who watch the same shows as me on T.V. but I can survive 5 weeks without t.v. I really wish that my mom can stop saying that I need so much to go.I think I already knew that but I'm really going to miss everyone and everything about new york city. This is my home but I have try new things. Just a few more days to exeter and I can't wait anymore.

My mom is making me nervous

So obviously I"m really excited to go to Exeter but my mom is blowing it really out of proportion. Now I can't go 10 minutes with her alone in a room without her telling me to make sure I'm social and "participate". I mean what does she think I'm going to do, and when I said I wanted to wat the last Harry Potter on the weekend she gets so excited and thinks I'm going to have a million friends to go with. maybe I will and maybe I won't but really her hyper active attitude is getting to me and now I cant go to sleep til almost 2 in the morning. *Sigh* but I guess I can't blame her though, but I'm really hoping my roommate isn't rude or puts people down because then I KNOW we won't get along. Things are getting tense only 5 days and my family in Jamaica is pretty upset that i won't be coming and I'm upset too but they support me and that's all I need, so see you guys on Sunday!!

Waiting can be boring

I am going to exeter in 8 day!!!!I really want this last few days of school to past by.It was just a few months ago that I was accept and now I finally feel the reality of everything.It's right in my reach now.I can't wait any longer.

Home away from home

Do you ever feel like time is either going too slow or too fast.Since schools out for me i feel like time is going even slower.Thats kinda making me more nervous.All these worries and ifs keep popping into my head like what if i dont have nice roommate, will i like the classes, i hope the teachers are easy to get along with ........etc.I tend to make everything a bigger deal than it actually is but at the end i wish that it couldve lasted longer.

The wait is killing me!

I'm really excited to go to Exeter. I just want to get there already. I feel that once i'm over there, the stress will be gone and the fun can begin. I cant wait to meet all the new people. Its nice to finally get out of my house and do something new. I just pray that my roommate is completely antisocial. That would make it more difficult for me to actually open up and be myself. If someone feels nervous and wants to talk to someone, I'm your guy! Cant wait to get there!

Exeter

So I'm really nervous to go to Exeter in about a week. The most I'm really nervous about is meeting the other people. Its not that I'm not a social person but I hate that awkward first meeting with people. And I also hope that my roommate is cool and that we just click with one another. What I'm excited about are the classes that I'm going to take and the professors that I might have. I'm kind of a nerd in that way, but the class that I'm looking most forward to taking is Intro to French. I really want to learn how to speak another language and hopefully Exeter will help me out with that. MOST OF ALL I can't wait to get away from home this summer and try some new things.

- Wish me luck !

Can't wait!!

I'm excited that in about 2 weeks im going to be leaving my mom and not going to Jamaica for the whole summer for the first time in my life!! Even though im going to miss spending time with my family and friends in Jamaica I have a great feeling about Exeter and the affect it is goin to have on me...and that's how i kno i wont be so disappointed when i leave my mom. I hope im right!?!?

CONFUSION (both excited and worried)

OMG!
I can't believe that in about a week we will be in Exeter, taking our first class/ cluster. I'm so excited to meet new people but at the same time worried about doing my own laundry and who my roommate will be!! It's so confusing, what should I feel, happpiness or fear (mostly happiness). I just can't wait. Being in a new place surounded with new people, taking new sports, new trips, it's all exciting to me. It makes me feel more independent, a bigger person. I just can't wait to go to exeter ( I'm also excited about my graduation, which is a different story) :)!!!!!

Checking for assigned books

Good question Theo!

Normally, you can check for summer school books for your cluster or courses by following this link:

But it looks like they haven't posted yet.

So the best bet is to call them: 603-777-3500.

Tell them you're a summer school student trying to  find out what your assigned books are. They'll either ask you what your courses/cluster are or they'll tell you when you can call back and find out.

If someone finds out more from them, write a blog post to let us know!

Nearly There

School is nearly over and the next thing thing to look forward to is Exeter. There's gonna be a lot to do there, classes and blogging are just two of them. I'll admit that I'm still kind of nervous. When I first applied I thought that there was NO WAY that I was getting to do this, and now it's more real than ever.
I'm nervous about lots of things like who my roommate will be and doing laundry. (I'm still completely stymied by it). I'm also worried about the homework. I hope that the workload isn't as big as it is at my school now, 'cause if it is, I'll scream.
But even though I've got all these worries, I'm still greatly looking forward to going there.

P.S. Does anyone know how to find what books we need? I don't.

Excited as Ever!

now that there are exactly 12 more days left until Exeter i am getting as excited as ever!when i was reading the blog from last year many people said they were nervous and just wanted to get it over with but i'm feeling the complete opposite. i think its coming by very quickly and the closer it is the more excited i get. currently I've been shopping for all the things i need and it seems to be coming along quite great, i'm almost ready but i still didn't start packing yet. the only thing i am worried about is who will be my room mate? and is the food good?that's all for now but i cant wait to start on another post later on!

Bye=)

Getting our blog up and running

Hi everyone!

I'm writing a short first post so you can see what the end product looks like.

I get to go to Exeter next week, and it's one of my favorite times of year. A lot of the staff members have become good friends, and many of them are people I've known for ten years now. We have a flurry of meetings and other preparations to get the campus, dorms, and classes ready for you to have the best summer of your lives. I'm really excited.

I'll write again once I'm on campus...now it's your turn! What are you thinking and how are you feeling in these days before you come to Exeter? What are you up to in NYC in these last couple weeks before you come to New Hampshire?
