Hey-it's been awhile-I know, but so much as been going on. You guys wouldn't believe. The week after I last blogged, was a very interesting week, yet difficult week. My great aunt passed away after 95 wonderful years, and I had to end up going home to attend the funeral. But all of my professors and the staff that I work for were very understanding, and they allowed me the time to spend with my family. I ended up missing, USCA's very first Dance Marathon, but I heard it was a great turn out and alot of money was raised for the Children's Medical Center at MCG. The following week when I got back, you would not believe how busy and crazy things got. It was homecoming week!!!! This year's theme: I love NY! There were fun activities all week including a hypnotist and more of our traditional events like Painting the Streets! I wasn't able to attend all of the events though because RSA was preparing for our 2008 SCORE conference, where most of the resident housing associations from different college campuses in SC get together and plan ways to make living on campus better. This year it was at Lander University and USCA took home the prize for best banner and Outstanding philanthropy. We left friday and came back Saturday, just in time to catch the Women's and Men's Game for Homecoming and we won both games! Just as we were deciding where we would go out to party I realized that I had 3 TEST the upcoming Monday and Tuesday. Not 1, not 2, BUT 3! So what did I do...party or study? Let's just say I think I did pretty good on my tests this week! Check out the photos from the conference below and see more on my profile on facebook!!

Hello everyone out there in Pacer Land! Just wanted to update you all on the craziness and excitement in my life. This week was pretty calm when it came to my studies. After getting those 3 tests out of the way, things kinda slowed down on the academic side ,and I did pretty good on my test. I probably should've done better in physics, but what can I say-It's PHYSICS!!! But "teach" is helping me out (shout out to Mr. Miller)! Anyways, the personal life was bananas this week!!! After a long weekend of catering with the restaurant, Monday I went "window shopping" which turned into buying and then I came back and went to the library (boring! but I got a lot done). Tuesday, I became a superstar!!! Not really. I shot a commercial for the school and you can check that out on the school's website soon! Then, after a long day of class, I went to the gym and "pump some iron".- spring break is coming! Wednesday, I had lunch wtih the donor of my scholarship this year and it was wonderful. She's a very friendly lady. That was followed by a long and busy day of meetings. Finally, today I heard back from two out of the two nursing homes that I applied to work at to keep up my CNA liscense. You always have to have something to fall back on. So, tomorrow, its interviews, decisions and a trip home to visit my family. I've got alot to do this weekend and on top of that I've gotta squeeze studying in-but I'm making my mark!!!!! ttyl

This is a public service announcement: Don't park in the yellow lines or in any parking space besides the housing parking lot before 2pm if your a resident. In the past 2 weeks, I've recieved 2 tickets! Guess I didn't learn my lesson the 1st time, but I had good reasons for parking there. That started my weekend, which was pretty much a blur! I went home and it was nice, but that's all I remember. And here I am...middle of the week... and tons of things to do. Last night, I attended a Hunger Banquet which discussed the different social classes and how majority of the world's population is in need of some kind of assistance(money, food, shelter, etc.). LETS DO OUR PART! Tonight is Bingo Night for Residents and its also Senior Night at the Pacer Basketball game. I also just realized that I have a test and quiz tomorrow and a presentation, test and quiz next week. Fun Times, right?! Ttyl.
