A lot of great stuff has been happening in my life right now. The past month has flown and I cannot believe fall break is already here. My midterms didn't really consist of exams, but a lot of papers. I have so many papers to write in the next week, my brain might blow up.... :( On a more positive note, I have a Phi Beta Lambda Conference this weekend! And next week is one of my best friends' wedding! I can't believe it's almost already here. So much to do in so little time! Haha. :)
Homecoming Week was a little over two weeks ago and for those who know, I was the President of the planning committee. As much stress I had the few weeks prior to Homecoming I could not have been more blessed with such an amazing group of college students to help plan and implement the events throughout the week.
We hosted a karaoke night along with a trivia game night to kick off Homecoming week! Both of these events were fairly new to Homecoming and they turned out to be a success! Definitely look forward to bringing these two activities back.The committee also held events like the talent show, field day and the spirit rally along with the traditional Homecoming parade the morning of the football game. Let's just say it was a blast! Go Redhawks! :)
In the Admissions Office, one of my main duties is to help coordinate Show Me Days. Assigning duties, tours, etc. are the fun things I get to do! It can be super stressful, especially when you have 60+ student ambassadors to match up in perfect order throughout the day. :)
If you didn't know, Southeast Show Me Day gives prospective students the opportunity to see the campus, speak with faculty/staff, eat free food and much more! Overall, it's a nice way for high school students to see what college is all about and what Southeast can offer them.
My boss also brings donuts in the morning for the tour guides to eat.....anddddd I kind of sort of have a crazy obsession with donuts. They are so disgustingly fattening, but I could eat them for breakfast every single day. Fortunately, I don't eat these every day or I'd be huge!
Since life has been so busy here lately, I've been trying to take time
for myself. Whether it's reading a book, enjoying some coffee or even
taking a short nap (which rarely happens any more) I try and do a little
something for me throughout the day! It's important to slow down and
take in what is surrounding you. This brings me to the quote below.
The older I get the more I realize how true this statement is and how
important it is to let God do His thing and be OKAY with it. :) I'm
super stubborn, so this isn't easy for me! I'm learning though, haha.
I hope you enjoyed the read! I'm sorry I've been neglecting you all, that's not my intention. :) Enjoy the rest of your week and remember, let God do His thing....He's got it under control, I promise!
God Bless,
Rachel
