Lets get familiar

Hello, Hola, Hejsan, Shalom, Howdy

Which everway you prefer to say HEY.....Just remeber it might make someone's day.

I have always been taught that introducing yourself should include a nice firm hand shake, a friendly smile, and of course your name.

So, Hello my name is Sharla Stokes. (FIRM HAND SHAKE)(FRIENDLY SMILE)

I am a Freshman Psychology major here at Bethany and proud to say it. So far my experiences here at Bethany College have been eventful, overwhelming, fun, adventureous, and a bit nerve-racking. However, with all these different experiences I have came to realize that Bethany is the place for me. I say this because along with all of the other ways to describe my first few weeks at Bethany I seemed to forget the most important.....Comfortable.

My hometown is Concordia Kansas. Which is slightly bigger than Lindsborg, but still a small town. I think that Lindsborg is a wonderful place to live. All of the residence are extemely nice and you never have to question the intentions of others. I do however miss the convenience of a Wal-mart that is less than 15 minutes away. Those nights after the DG is closed and Kaps doesn't have what you are looking for not having a Wal-mart is a bit of a pain. But, not having a Wal-mart was a small price to pay for getting an education from a school that embraces new students and makes everyone feel welcome and comfortable.

There are many new things that I have experienced in my first month here. I have found it easy to misplace sleep, books, phone numbers, and study habits but, have found new friends, classes, jobs, and scenery. Hopefully, I can manage to find all of those things I have misplaced, sleep being the most important followed by study habits. So far all of the items I have found outway the items I have misplaced. Finding new friends is a large part to the College world and here at Bethany you do not have to search far for people that are willing to be your friends.

I hope you have become a bit more fimilar with me now that I am a bit more fimilar with Campus.

So, the best I can do is hope that I find those misplaced items and maybe some of you can help me with this search.....

See ya'll later.
