Itz time to Take0ff!


Hi. Hello

Well, Move-In was fantastic!! I had never seen so many totes and refrigerators in my entire life!! To my benefit, I already had my eagle card, so I didn’t have to wait in the ridiculously long lines of the Lee Biology Building! Week of Welcome was very welcoming, down to the entertainment of the Fraternities and Sororities at Training Day to the pinning of the Eagles at the New Eagle Convocation! Big Ups to NCCU on welcoming us freshmen! SNAP SNAP!

August 17th, classes have started!
Classes are great; despite the hike up the "Jesus Steps", I love every minute of it!
The class sizes are small and the professors are enthused in teaching! I have a total of 17 credit hours, but the work has yet to slap me in the face!!

Campus Life has really become an experience. Here you never know who you are going to meet and what’s going to happen! You just got to love "the yard'!! Hanging out at Baynes and the overly crowded cafĂ© on “Chicken Wednesdays” are my favorite!!! I’m constantly meeting new people, I am in my third week and things can only get better!!

Shouts-out to New Res II and the best R.A, Uyi Idahor!!!

Until next time,
BRi

All About Bri =]


Hi.Hello!


Greetings Eagles! My name is Bridgett Elliott, but I prefer Bri!!! =] I'm 17 years of age; yep a youngin' and I absolutely love it. October 9th is my day; so Libras party with me! I reside in Erwin, North Carolina; for those who are unfamiliar, it's a tiny, itty-bitty town about 20 minutes from Fayetteville! I enjoy shopping, texting, hanging with friends, and shopping! Lol!


Wondering How I Became An Eagle?

Choosing a college was one of the hardest decisions ever. Being accepted to ECU,FSU,A&T,UNC-G and NCCU, I had several options. Taking the placement test here in April, before I even decided on a college, made me fall in love with the campus. The CORE leaders were so kind and helpful to everyone, answering and asking all questions to the best of their knowledge. After touring the campus during Open House, I knew without a doubt this is where I needed to be! Not to close to home, not to far from home and wonderful people!!! Days later I completed my housing and unpatiently waited for my financial aid award letter!! Orientation was the hottest ever, but beneficial, and who could forget the first "shower shoe" experience!!


Curious about college life I decide to attend Summer Session II, where I met a lot of friends. Summer school was great, fast paced but intriguing. I learned the buildings and the "shortcuts" to class and also got ahead in my classes!! The Black Experience Since 1865, the best class ever. Finishing up summer school, I was ready to be amongst my peers. That good old Class Of '13,Stand Up!


until next time,
