Weekend Update

This weekend and beginning of next week is going to be very busy for me! Tonight I am DJing a dance on campus, with my co-manager of WNDM, that is benefiting My Sister's Place (an organization that NDM has a strong volunteer relationship with). Tomorrow afternoon I will be working my first ever wedding!! I am helping out the Conference Services department on campus and can't wait, I love weddings! On Sunday it's ACCEPTED STUDENT OVERNIGHT!! I'm so looking forward to going downtown again with my fellow student workers and the accepted students which will hopefully become the future Notre Dame class of 2016!! If you are coming you'll have a blast, I promise!

Then when the week kicks into gear I have my internship, work, OPA meeting and Big/Little dinner. For Tuesday I was asked my Stephanie Cavill to be the student presenter at Crab Crawl, an annual event where guidance counselors all over the country come and visit colleges in the Baltimore Collegetown area. I made a video for my slide show and wanted to share it with you all! :) Have a good weekend!

The greatest show on earth!

Hi all!

I'm wrapping up my spring break and just wanted to let you that the circus is in town!! I went on opening night this past Wednesday! It was a blast. I also went to the free pre-show an hour before it began and got to see an elephant up close! (barely 5 feet in front of me!)


Then I got these awesome clown glasses! I'm a pirate clown.. it's a new breed!


I hope everyone is enjoying the official start to spring!! Ttys!

Spring Time!

It sure feels like Spring in Baltimore! This past week has been beautiful, especially around campus. I've been studying outside on the benches by the fountain every chance I have in between classes. I also bought a bike off of my friend this week. I rode on a bike trail up by my house today and enjoyed the weather some more! Here is a picture of it:


Spring Break also started for me on Thursday night. Friday morning I got up bright and early (at 2:30 A.M. to be exact) to work the live broadcast for the 98 Rock morning show. Life of an intern.. They were gearing up for St. Patrick's day at Looney's Pub in Canton (a neighborhood in Baltimore). The mayor of Baltimore, Stephanie-Rawlings Blake even stopped by! She normally calls in monthly to the morning show but this time she did an in person interview! It was pretty cool.


There she is with her radio headset on and some green for St. Patty's Day! I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday! TTYS. :)

New Presidante!

As you may have heard NDMU's current president is retiring this June. It was announced last week that Dr. Connelly would be the newest president! After the announcement, I enjoyed some lunch with my friends before my class and he and his family ate in the dining hall as well. He walked around to each table of students and introduced himself. He was very friendly and approachable, I'm excited for the future of NDMU knowing it is in his hands. I was interviewed with a few of my fellow students by the Catholic Review, check out the article here: http://www.catholicreview.org/article/home/it-s-a-boy-2

Scholarship Dinner was the following evening, after the announcement. It was so great to get to talk with the prospective students and their families!! Since then, I DJ-ed Winterfest, Notre Dame's annual indoor carnival, with my co-manager for WNDM, caught up on some homework, saw Godspell, the musical the school is currently putting on, and was in a music video for my friends local pop punk band! 


PHEW!! 


I also received a packet from school about the details for graduation! It feels so real!! I hope everyone has been doing well.
