This is not Summer Weather

Second day of dark skies and muggy weather...NOT KOOL with a capital K. Tomorrow and for the weekend it's supposed to be beautiful and sunny, and it better be because I am looking foward to going to the pool or simply relaxing with a book out on the Boston Common.

Today is the first day for Orientation. I woke up from my slumber this morning to find a group of orientation students just staring at me. Of course I was in my PJ's and I looked like I just woke up, which I did. It was what most people would refer to an awkward moment. With all this excitement about Orientation it made me reminisce about my past experience. I had a pretty good orientation and that's because I had two top notch Orientation Leaders. Thinking about this next freshmen class makes me remember when I had to sit through all those orientation sessions about classes, residence life, student involvment, etc etc. It was pretty overwhelming and long but I also remember meeting people who've turned out to be some of my closest friends today. I had my first experience of how dedicated students here are to getting involved. The first organization that I joined was Suffolk University Hispanic Association and I was pretty much inlisted right at orientation. So over all there were some boring aspects but there were also some perks being at orientation.

SUMMER TIME IN BOSTON!!!

So I am really pumped this summer!! I am back at Admissions giving tours for the summer as well as living at the dorms this summer to. I am back living at the 150 Tremont Residence Hall as a Third year Conference Assistant which is definitely exciting. The whole month of May we have been prepping the residence halls for the arriving guests this summer. It's going to be fun! We get to meet a wide range of people such as Orientation students, international students as well as various of other groups of people. On top of that I've been working at the Admissions office giving tours and I am working part time at the Kinsale Irish Pub and restaurant and taking a class. So as it is a very busy summer it's also going to be exciting because there is always something going on in Boston.
