"We're Half Way There....oooohhhh OH!"

Well actually it's more than half way over. This semester is almost over in 4 WEEKSSS!!!! THANK YOU TO THE POWERS TO BE!!!! I am so ready for this semester to be over, I've just been so over worked with papers, RA stuff, SU101 stuff, and Grad School stuff.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend this conference called NASPA which is a major conference for Student Affair professionals. This conference also had a sub conference called SALT, which was intended for undergrad students interested in Student Affairs. There was about 50 undergrads and the conference was from Sunday to Monday, and after leaving the conference I walked away with 4 grad schools in which I want to apply to. This conference was basically a foot in the door to exploring and networking with professionals as well as exploring a couple of grad schools. I originally wanted to apply to Northeastern and Suffolk but after meeting the representatives of other schools I've decided to apply to Northeastern, Springfield College, UCONN, and Suffolk.

With Thanksgiving around the corner I will be spending my free time off from school applying to Grad programs. I am having a friend of mine proof-reading my personal statement, I am currently in the works of getting my recommendations ready, and hopefully if I do everything right and according to plan I will be able to have everything sent out before X-Mas Break(fingers crossed.

Lastly, Open House on Saturday, should be exciting!!!!
