Start

School is starting I am ready all of the weeks of welcome events was fun especially Casino Royale. Many of new faces and beautiful girls. Making new friends mostly sexy mamas, got plenty more to meet. Oh Yeah

Goodbye to:

Brandis' blinding hair

Tamri's sexual songs, poems and stories

Tajma's beautiful face

Alex's smart ass comments

Jerel always telling me to shut up

Chanel's weird looks when she has no clue what's going on

Sebastien's random blurt outs while class is going on

Joe's Rupaul impersonations

and Kelly's bird trauma

BYE NOT GOING TO MISS YOU!!!!

Tajma Hall - GOODBYE!!!

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.”
Hey guys, I guess this is goodbye. 4 weeks goes by fast. We've learned a lot and I think we are all ready for college. It will be great. I want to wish everyone the best of luck in your future goals and I am sure everyone will do fine. I remember when I found out I had to do Bridge it was like a slap in the face. All my struggles with my grades through high school came from family drama that I had no control over. I pushed through, worked hard and did everything I needed to do to graduate. Then found out I had to do this program. I was upset and I felt like it was punishment. Especially when I found out some of my friends did not have to do Bridge to come to Columbia and they had worse grade than I did in high school. But overall, it helped. If anything it helped my writing for the fall. I'm happy it is over and I can now truly move on to bigger and better things. Thanks Joe and Kelly for helping me improve my writing. Hope to take one of your classes one day. The "fun" has just begun. September 6th is the first real day of "fun" . Good luck.

This was the best experience that I have ever gone through. It was super benifical to me and me getting ready for a fall semester in Columbia College Chicago. It is going to be a fun new experience to start with thousands of college students in the fall. I have learned not only things about being a college student but also learning to navigate the city. I learned to good food places, the great historical sights and the very best music venues. Having this extra month of living in the city before everyone else comes to go to school is very benificial to me. I won't be as overwhelmed with everything, like navigating my way to class or how crowded elevators can be. I learned that this is an amazing way to make yourself, to show everyone who you are without your past. No more being known as Alexandria Gilson's little sister. I am now me; Brandice Gilson. I want to create change. And I feel that Joe Eldridge and Kelly are a huge part of any change that I make. From my Artistic Translation I want to branch of and start something bigger than what I could have ever done on my own.

PEEEEAAAACCCCEEE!!!!!!

Thank you Kelly and Joe for the time at Bridge program. From this experience at Bridge I have learned a lot about college and the life I am getting ready to enter. Thank you Bridge for giving me an experience of Columbia College. Now I am ready to pursue my life in music. Thank You
