Well, it's almost Halloween, the most important time of the year for South Campus. We have our haunted house in the Cretin basement in 3 days, and my floor is not nearly prepared enough. I know we can pull it off, but I'm gonna be so stressed out because I have so much other stuff to do. I have three papers to write by Wednesday, a test on ( Read more... )

I've been so swamped lately, and things are gonna keep getting worse. It's homecoming weekend, and I have a concert tomorrow, so I have almost no time to do my homework. That is unfortunate because I have a big math assignment due on Monday, as well as an English test. I'm feeling very overwhelmed. I'm trying to enjoy myself this year because, ( Read more... )

I really should be doing homework, but I haven't updated in a long time, and I really want to ( Read more... )

I dedicated today to getting most of my work done, and I didn't get nearly enough of it done. I finished my student teaching resume and I did the RCR's for my floor, but I still have to fill out the floor condition report for my floor, finish the paperwork for Peru, do my bulliten boards and door decs, and complete my orientation paper. I'm so ( Read more... )

Now, I'm obsessed. I can't stop watching. I need to know what happens in season 3(but don't tell me ( Read more... )

Our training is nearly over, and the first freshmen arrive on Monday. I'm nervous, but not nearly as nervous as I was at the beginning of the summer. I've learned a lot about how to do my job, and I'm becoming more confident in myself, which is something I've struggled with my entire life. Our orientation team has gone through a lot of ( Read more... )

I'm back on campus for my job as an orientation leader, and I've had to make an adjustment. For the last month, I was sitting at home with nothing to do. Now, I have training 14 hours a day, 6 days a week. This will take some getting used to ( Read more... )
