relaxin by the fire

Warmin up our toes by the fire and making s'mores.
Snow days in college are the best ♥ ...

sunday

One of my favorite things to do on Sundays is take my Sunday afternoon nap.

I plop down on the couch, turn on HGTV, and allow myself to drift away.

I love it.

I definitely needed a nap today. Last night some friends and I went out and came back to my place after. We ordered pizza and stayed up until 3 AM chit chatting. I have always been told that after you are out of college, you really don't remember the classes you took or the papers who wrote, but rather the memories you have with your friends.

Happy Sunday! If you haven't already taken a nap today, I highly recommend to do so.

SAC Comedian

Student Activities Council...aka SAC is a student lead organization that brings different events to campus throughout the whole school year.

Free events. You need to go.

Every Thursday, SAC, puts on a late night event. They range from black light bingo, spa night, movie night at our movie theatre here in town, bowling and comedians.

This Thursday, Kira Soltanovich, a stand up comedian was our entertainment.

Hilarious.

Earlier that morning, her transportation from KC to Maryville fell through.

No fear, Abby and I came to the rescue and drove down to the Kansas City Airport to pick her up. We couldn't leave Maryville though without stopping at Sonic and getting a little caffeine fix.

She had us laughing so hard the whole drive back and during the show I was crying.

Anyone can join SAC. It is a great organization to get involved in your first year at college. You can be involved as much or a little as you would like.

Hope you have a great weekend!

(if you didn't already catch on, this is one of my blog posts for the NW Admissons page)

football stats

I have decided to brush up on my football stats...(since I'm working at the Superbowl ...) This is what I know so far...

Andrew Luck, Stanford quarterback, is one of the best QB's in the nation. He could have been drafted after this season to the NFL, but wanted to finish his degree. (He is also REALLY good looking)

NFL = National Football League

When a player makes a touchdown, it is six points. If they kick it and make it in between the goal posts you can add another point. 6 + 1 = 7

The Packers and Steelers are the two teams playing in the Superbowl.

Not much, huh?

I know lots about the advertisements that run during the Superbowl and how expensive they are. I studied that stuff for a whole two weeks.

According to my cousin, Kari, here is what I will be doing the day before the game:
Saturday- Helping me with Game Day briefings. This means there will be two ‘classes’ one from 9-12 and one from 3:30-6:30. I will utilize you as my check in team, meaning we will have to go from 730AM-930ish and 2-4ish. We will sign in and scan in all the supervisors as they arrive, and hand out binders with their Game Day information. In between, I will probably have you helping at the office or coming up with some last minute Game Day items.

Excited to leave for Dallas next Thursday!

Green & White

The campus tour.

I believe it is an essential part of the college selection process.

As a student ambassador at Northwest, I give campus tours.

There are 3 main reasons why I love my job...

1. I am constantly meeting new families and students.
2. I get to be outside and not behind a desk.
3. I get to show you what I love, Northwest Missouri State University.

This past Saturday was Green & White Visit Day. This is a day when a lot of families come and visit campus. At Green & White Visit Day you are...
Greeted by college students who guide you around campus...

Take a picture with our mascot, Bobby Bearcat...

Ask the student panel lots of questions...

and of course, go on a campus tour!

paid to blog?

My supervisor from my student ambassador job asked me if I would be willing to blog once a week about my life at college for the admissions page...and get paid for it!

My reply...

Yes, of COURSE!

You can see my blogs here --->Student Blogs

and you can see the awesome people I work with here --->Northwest Ambassadors

Whatever I post on that blog will also be posted on this blog.

Less work for me.

Go Bearcats!

Monday, monday you exhaust me.

white stuff everywhere

It took four girls, three shovels, and one broom to get Abby and Rosalind's cars out of the snow.

As you can see, we got A LOT of snow. I think 8 inches. Unfortunately, the plow came by and pushed all of the snow around their cars. We had to dig them out. We were successful and quite proud of our accomplishment.

Happy Sunday!
