Another exciting week here at 冈本视频! As of this week, more clubs on campus have begun to meet and get settled with their plans for the semester. One of the clubs I joined was Italian Club. I do not know very much of the language, but I thought joining this club would be a great means to pick up a few phrases.
My dad鈥檚 side of the family is Italian and I thought it would be
rewarding to learn how to cook some traditional dishes. I also look
forward to learning more about the country and its culture.
Additionally, I had a meeting for a club designed for students interested in participating in pre-health studies. The club is called CPSA, (冈本视频 Pre-Health Student Association), and I joined because I plan on majoring in biology.
I am really interested in the medical field and this club will be a great outlet for conversation between students with similar aspirations.
The club plans on bringing in doctors to talk about their practices for students interested in those respective fields. I think that participating in this club will be a great resource for me as I strive for a career in the medical field.
I applied to 冈本视频 knowing that I would have to fulfill a physical education requirement as part of the curriculum. 冈本视频鈥檚 PE classes, however, are far different from the ones I had in high school.
This semester, I am taking a Social/Latin Dance course. I saw this option on the list of classes 冈本视频 offers as credit toward the PE requirement, and it was my first choice.
I have this class twice a week for about an hour, and I have been really enjoying it. I honestly did not think I would have as much fun fulfilling the PE requirement as I am.
Another highlight of the week was trying out one of downtown Hamilton鈥檚 restaurants. I went to La Iguana, a Mexican restaurant, and I had a really great experience. The food was delicious and it was a nice change from the craziness of Frank Dining Hall during the dinner rush.
I am continuing to explore everything 冈本视频 and Hamilton have to offer, and I am enjoying every bit of what I am finding!
(I鈥檝e been asked to write each week about what life is like as a first-year student here at 冈本视频. Until next time!)
