That's All Folks!

Well guys, it's that time of year. Graduation time!! I am currently working on my last project and then I am done!! Right now I'm doing my final portfolio for my Middle Level Education class and decided to take a little break and say my goodbye! Since I'm a Senior I won't be returning to blog in the fall so this will be my last blog. I really enjoyed sharing my college experience with you (Even if I did not do so good this term - Sorry!) and I hope you learned something about what it's like to be a Mercyhurst Laker!

My plans for the summer are to return to my usual job hostessing at a local restaurant that I've worked at since I was a freshman, do a little work as a secretary for a school near my house and maybe get some volunteer hours in at the Pittsburgh Refugee Center. I'm also running my first 5k! It's in Columbus, Ohio and it's called "The Color Run" their slogan is "The Happiest 5K on the Planet" and I don't think they are lying! And let's not forget I'll be lesson planning for my student teaching in the fall! So I'd say my summer is pretty packed!

This is a promo vide for the Color Run! :) I can't wait!

I'll be spending the next few days packing up my apartment, hanging out with friends, saying goodbyes and preparing for graduation. I can't believe it's already here and I know I definitely am not ready to leave Mercyhurst behind! I've made amazing friends that i know I will have for a long time, and I;ve had some wonderful experiences and great memories. Mercyhurst became my second home for the past four years, and I'm sad that I have to leave.

So to all my friends, classmates, professors, faculty & staff at Mercyhurst - Thank you, it's been great.

Some of the best girls I know at our last Ambassador event!

Funday Sunday

So it's Funday Sunday - you know the kind of Sunday where it is so beautiful outside all you want to do is grill, hang out with friends and enjoy the sunshine! I'm taking a quick break from all the fun to write to you as I wait for my steaks to finish thawing so I can go grill up some dinner!
This weekend was a busy and fun one if you were here at the Hurst! On Friday night we kicked of Springfest Weekend with a Concert headlined by the Plain White T's not to mention opened by our very own The Romantic Era! Then on Saturday, it was the luau and barbecue out in Garvey Park! They had food, inflatables, games, prizes and a generally awesome time had by all! Springfest is definitely everyone's favorite weekend on Campus. And today is the perfect way to end a great weekend!
Also on Saturday morning we hosted 'Junior Day' here on campus for prospective High School Juniors. This is where Juniors and their families could come to Mercyhurst, tour the campus, go to a student panel and meet professors and clubs on campus! So hopefully if you are a Junior you made it out, but if you didn't you can always schedule a tour here at Mercyhurst by just calling Admissions!
So I'm back off to enjoy the rest of the sunshine and get some dinner!
