Orientation is Around the Corner: Kayla's Blog

Hey Bloggers,

I cannot believe it is already April, only one more month left in the semester! I am very excited for the summer, I will be working with the summer Orientation program here at MSU and get to meet all of the new incoming students and help them register for classes. As part of the Orientation team, I traveled to Omaha, Nebraska last weekend for a leadership conference. I was able to meet a bunch of orientation groups from colleges and universities within the Midwest. It was great to see what other groups do for their orientation sessions as well as receive assistance with my resume and professional skill development. This weekend, I am going home for Easter to see my family. I have not seen them since the beginning of March so it will be fun to relax and spend time with them!

Countdown, One Month Left: Nick's Blog

Hey Everybody!!

Well classes are almost over, only one month left!! I can’t believe how fast this year has gone by, it’s crazy. I'm getting ready to start to study every day for my EMT-B Test, which will be very hard to pass. I have many classes to finish up some class projects to finish and start to study for the finals. 

I started my new class on Thursday for my cruise that's coming up in May!! I can’t wait to go on my first cruise!! Horseback riding is going really well and it’s so much fun. We got to jump the horses, super scary for your first time but interesting to learn how to! 

Well I hope everyone has an amazing Easter that is coming up and Have a couple of days off from school!!!

Thanks,

Nick 

Rock Climbing with Cristen: Cristen's Blog

Hey Bloggers!

I finally feel like we’re at the last stretch of the school year and I couldn’t be more excited!  It’s so hard to focus though when you know summer is only a few weeks away and the weather is gorgeous.  This past week I went to the new rock wall on campus with my boot camp.  It was such a blast!  I climbed every side of the wall.  Some climbs were pretty difficult, but I made it to the top on every one.  Rock climbing is one of my favorite activities and I am so excited for them to start building the inside rock wall which is going to have 12 ropes!  I think I’m also going to sign up for the rock climbing class being offered next semester.

Next week I am taking one of the most important tests of my college career, the GRE.  I’m a little afraid for it, considering it has a big impact on me getting in to graduate school.  However, I’ve been studying and I’m ready to give it a try!  I’ll let you all know about it goes!  Have a great week.

Let the Good Times Roll: Jeni's Blog

Hey Everybody!

                This week has been crazy busy so far! My roommates both celebrated their birthdays, so there was lots of eating out and celebrating! It was nice to get together with all of our friends but it also didn’t leave much time for studying and schoolwork! Other than lots of celebrating I have been busy preparing for my interview in the admissions office. Even though I already work in the office I have to be rehired to work there again next year. I have been busy preparing a presentation and debating on what to wear for my interview!

                I have also been making time to enjoy the nice weather! Sometimes it’s hard to get outside when there is so much to do but I like to make time to go on walks with Kayla and some other friends. As always look for me when you come into the office! J That’s all for now!

Jake's Blog: Sign of Good Things to Come

Hello Bloggers,

This summer weather is making it extra hard to concentrate on school.  I went home last weekend and hung out at my friend’s house on a lake, and actually go a little sunburnt!  Sign of good things to come this summer!  That being said, I need to bear down and really focus on finishing the year well.  I’m about to go take an economics test, I have a 6 minute speech to give on Tuesday, not to mention I just got a 4 page paper assigned in business law.  I also have an interview on Tuesday for a job in the admissions office for next year. 

I’m going to Applebee’s tonight for a friend’s birthday, and since it is supposed to be close to 80 both days this weekend I’m hoping we can get out and play some sand volleyball again!  I get to go home next Thursday since I don’t have Friday class this semester. Hope you all have a good Easter!
