My Introduction
About me:
My name is Sav, I'm a freshman at a university in South Carolina studying special education and (maybe) Spanish or creative writing. I'm 18 years old, a Tennessee native who's been in South Carolina for 14 years, and a graduate of a local STEM high school's health science program.
Why start a studyblr:
I have used my main blog @savrecovers for some studying posts in the past, but with me starting university in just a few weeks, I thought it might be better to have a blog dedicated to my studying. I also started this because I have anxiety and depression and thought this might help to keep me motivated.
My schedule fall semester:
I'm taking 16 credit hours this semester as of today (7/30/2019). I'm taking:
Biology 101 (biology for non-science majors)-3 credit hours, 3-3:50pm Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays
