HALLOWEEN!

So this year I am not so excited about Halloween, I know that sounds all sad and depressing, BUT I have a test in my Anthropology class at 8AM! tomorrow morning so therefore I can't go out with any of my friends tonight AND my fraternity is having a Halloween party that I will not be able to attend because I am at a study group.....man, the sacrfices I have to make, lol. I guess that's what college is all about. The social life is fun but I am here for school so I guess I can't complain.

This weekend should make up for the crappy week I have had; I am going to a leadership school conference friday and saturday for my fraternity and than Saturday night is my boss, Andy English's wedding. It's going to be crazy!!!! I signed up for next semester classes today....that kind of made me scared because that means I am one more semester closer to graduating and THAT my friend is scary, lol.

Final Thought:

Thanksgiving break is only two and half weeks away...but who's counting? I AM!!!!

Getting back from Fall Break

SO we all just got back from Fall Break and I am pretty sure I can speak for everyone and say that it went by WAY too fast. I enjoyed the 5-day weekend, going home to see the family and old friends and to not have ANY homework to do for just a few days. BUT now it's back to the grind stone to get those grades the best they can be before Finals, which is crazy to think those are only a little over a month away. I got lots of work to do let me tell ya.

Let's see, recently I have been really focusing on my classes and grades because beginning of this year I think I ran Simpson College and all the extra-curricular stuff I was doing so I have cut back on that. I have a wedding to go to this weekend and my fraternity has a leadership school I am going to this weekend in Omaha, Nebraska, and between sorority formals, my formal, Thanksgiving coming up.....I got every weekend in November booked! That's crazy!

It's starting to get cold out here in Iowa now and I loving it! Leaves are turning colors, the smell of Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and the best part of all......snow could come at any time now!!!!! I love when it snows and all my fraternity brothers and girls from around campus get together and go sledding and such, it's alot of fun. Well the homework is screamin my name so I better roll out and I promise not to go three weeks without writing you again, life just gets a little crazy sometimes.

Peace out cub scouts!!!

Homecoming 07'

So last week was Simpson College's Homecoming and I was one of the two Homecoming Chairman! It was an extremely, busy, sleepless, stressful week but I have definitely have seen the benefits of it. I got to plan a car demolition, a powder puff football game, Olympics, Skits, and Yell Like Hell, which all went awesome!

It may seem really easy to coordinate all these things but it definitely tested many of my skills like oraganzing things, being responsible, and being a leader for myself and the people i was directing. I know I have grown from this experience and I am ready for a break! haha

I am sure there will be something else come up soon that will make me busy again, but for now, I am enjoying my down time!
