Expectation: “I am sure the materials I am going to use for classes won’t be that expensive, my professors and university totally understand a lot of college students struggle financially.”

Reality: 4.

Expectation: “My weekends are going to be so exciting! I’m gonna go to every party and school event. I am gonna have an awesome social life and barely ever stay in my dorm.”

My name is Jessica and I love reading,musicals, TV shows (especially Arrow), comics, watching movies and Netflix, and traveling. I am a Mass Communications major, with a concentration in Journalism, at Bloomsburg University and I plan to graduate in May 2018. I hope to go onto to work in book publishing or writing for some kind of media outlet as well as working in a major city such as New York or Philadelphia.
