College is....

a re-evaluation and appreciation of values....

As a sort of "rule" in my family have to drink at least one glass of milk a day. When I got to college I took one look at the milk "machine" and decided it wasn't exactly important to me. In a way it was freeing. I had tons of options every meal for what I wanted to eat and drink. But I have to admit, although I probably won't drink a glass of milk EVERYDAY, there's something there. Eating healthy and having good habits is a great thing! Well obviously, right!!!!! But sometimes I guess you have to figure these things out on your own.

So here's a shout-out to Mom and Dad for the childhood! ; )

my first Olivet football game











So the football game was pretty.....well, bad! (I'm sorry to report the score: 3-61) : (
But how about that half-time show! : )
The show was a little rough, but it was the first one.
We can only get better right!
I'll admit it, I had a few issues, but I caught everything!!! : D
The strangest thing was the newness of it all!
It was crazy performing in a whole new stadium for a whole new school with a whole new group of people!!!
But it was a blast!

rain








Oh the joys of rain! It rained for about 4 or 5 days strait! A lot of the streets actually were closed on Sunday because of flooding. And so we got out our umbrellas (again) and puddlejumped. Some others decided to play football and ultimate frisbee in Lake Weber, but we weren't so bold. : ) As soon as it stopped raining though...the water seemed to all magically disappear!!!
So anyway that was last weekend for ya!
Pictures of the football game and such are to come! : )

job and life

I got a job! I'll be working 2 hours a day cleaning in Weber. I'll be kept busy, I'm sure, and I really don't mind the work. : ) It would have been nice to do something else, but those jobs fell through for me...sigh. But I'm excited for this opportunity, definitely!

Otherwise, classes are going great. I love the floor! A ton of girls went home for the weekend, so it seems pretty quiet here. I've been making jewelry like crazy and selling some too. I'm planning on building up stock toward having a Christmas party at the end of November, beginning of December.

So that's a little bit of what's up with me! How's life with you?

secret

So I can't exactly go and tell everyone, but I have to tell somebody....I made it onto the judicial committee! I'm really excited! Granted, it would be nice if it paid, but that's kind of against the nature of the work, lol. If you don't know, the judicial committee is basically a group of students that a few of us would be called if a student would break a rule or something. That student might state his or her case for us as well the RD and we would discuss penalties, etc. We would also keep people accountable and such. Anyway, I'm excited to be a part of it.
Thanks for listening! :)
