The First Few Days


Hello everyone!!! My name is Ashley Nichelle Adams. I am from Raleigh, North Carolina and I graduated from the lovely Cary High School. I like to laugh, have fun, go shopping, eat, and just hang out with my friends.

Making a decision on which college I wanted to go to was very difficult. I was either going to go to ECU or NCCU. I chose NCCU because it was close to home and I wanted to be close to my family if I needed anything, and I also heard that they had a pretty good Nursing Program. I feel that I made a really good decision because I really like NCCU.

My first night here was very weird. I moved in on Tuesday, a day before everyone else moved in (because i attented my orientation late), so I was without a roomate my first night. I felt so lonely and it made it worse not having someone in the room with me because I was someplace different by myself. But all went well and I made it thru to the next morning. LOL

The next morning I went to Orientation and that was good...you get the things you need to get done like getting your Eagle Card pic taken and placement tests, and etc. Word of advice.... I suggest that you do it ahead of time and don't wait till the last minute, like me. But anyways when I got back to my room from orientation my roommate was there...YAY!!! I was very excited. She seemed very nice and talkative so that was good because I'm not that talkative. As of right now I am very happy that she is my roommate.

Once everyone got settled, and moved into the dorms, we had our W.O.W. (week of welcome). That gave you a lot to do that week and it was fun. My favorite had to be the pinning ceremony. The Pinning Ceremony was my favorite because I felt that was when I officially became an Eagle. I was very proud at that moment when I got my Eagle Pin. I am excited about my future Eagle Experience and will be telling you all more about it. As of right now my session is closing.
