[Interesting Spring Ahead.... and Snow Day(s)]

It's the second day of the semester and already.... we have had two snow days! On top of that, judging from the two classes I had yesterday out of my total of 3 and a half classes Im taking this semester.... Its going to be an interesting last semester of college.. lets just say that God has an FUNNY sense of humor with the situations he has placed me in. Life is without surprises and Im glad that there's never a dull/boring moment in it. Day one was definitely interesting; I can only imagine what the rest has in store.

I've kept busy since the last time I've written. Winter Semester was really relaxing and enjoyable--hanging out with old friends, getting to know new ones and working on relationships. It was definitely a good time. Class was amazing... I got really into it, and hopefully my grade shows that. I taught color guard every other day and thats been rewarding, seeing the girls really improve and grow into the choreography I wrote. My internship at Castle for Senate is always hustlin' and bustlin' with never a boring day at the office.

I've kept busy with an endeavor I began since the Haiti earthquake.  Two days after the earthquake and after watching the aftermath on CNN,  I knew God was telling me to help out. I knew that I didn't have money on my own, but he's blessed me with good ideas to raise money in the past so I knew that a t-shirt definitely had to come through with this. I made a design, consulted with my partner in crime Daniel Schroeder, and days later we were in the Newspaper, on TV, and working with President Harker on a project to raise money for Haiti. I joined up with 4 other student leaders and we created a large coalition of Student organizations aimed at raising money for Haiti, specifically rebuilding the Vill Hospital in Haiti! With a benefit concert already finalized and many smaller scale events, we've really gone far with our efforts! Hopefully we raise $50,000 by the end of the Spring so we can rebuild the hospital. God is definitely going to provide! I know it

Anyways, off to figure out what I'm going to do with my snow day. Maybe play in it; maybe watch some movies and hang out with friends! 

Enjoy your snow day!

  1. Is there anywhere we can donate $$$ towards the hospital rebuilding if I don't want a tshirt?
