I went to MW at the beginning of my
junior year. I had gone to MN for my fresh-
man and sophomore years, but during the
summer I decided to transfer to MW for a
change and for the opportunity to go to a
brand new school. "My first day at MW I was really
nervous. I only knew a couple of people there and I had no
idea how to find my way around the school."
After about three weeks of trying to get adjusted,
I decided that I really disliked MW and got the chance to
transfer back to MN . I am really happy to be backatMN and H-ow did you feel
to be back in school with my friends.
when you moved?
