A social life again!

Schools back in and I'm surprisingly happy. First off, last semester was my last time working with Papa Russ' as a waitress, I'm still doing catering here and there, but I didn't have to work at all over the break. I returned to school early to start my old job back on campus and I'm really glad to be back. I have nights and weekends off and I'm enjoying every bit of the social life that I've regained. So the first week of classes, crazy busy and fun. I've been getting events scheduled for RSA(Resident Student Association) this year and we have a lot coming up, from a Conference at Lander, Pajama Party next Friday and a Valentine's Dance co-sponsored by AASA (African American Student Alliance). So I'm busy, yet excited, with that. This week was also a special week because we celebrated the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and on Monday we are out of school in recognition of what he did- so do something positive this weekend that will impact and benefit others. Lastly, but certainly not least, It snowed in aiken this past week. Ok, for those of you that don't know, that's a real big deal! We also had a visit from Ms. Tatiyana Ali and Mr. Kal Penn supporters of the Barack Obama campaign and stars of Fresh Prince of Bel Air and House, respectively. They encouraged us to vote in this years South Carolina primary on the 26th of Jan because the youth vote is very important and literallly changing the face of the election. So Vote. Check out the photos from my christmas break and the first week of school. ttyl!

What's up guys?! Well, this past week as been fun, and everybody's getting back in the swing of things. Of course the professors aren't slacking off with it being the first couple of weeks and all. I've had 4 quizzes so far, but it's not at all stressful, yet! This week kept me pretty busy because I had a lot of meetings for different things here and there but I'm kinda use to those things now. We also had a pajama party last night that turned out to be pretty good. You can see pictures oft the pajama party below. Today in the day to vote in the democratic primary in SC, so if you didn't vote in the republican primary, get out and VOTE! Doesn't matter who you want to vote for just VOTE. So what's my plans for the weekend... Tonight is pack the house night for the women's/men's basketball games. That's where I'll be , supporting the PACERS. Tomorrow...hanging out with friends and STUDY, STUDY, STUDY! Check back in with me later, we have a lot of things coming up...including HOMECOMING. ttyl! S5030450.JPGS5030454.JPGS5030447.JPG
