ARC Wellness Fair

Today during my break, I went down to the ARC and checked out the Wellness Fair that was put on by the Exercise Science majors. It was pretty nice. The only part that I did not like was the fact that is was all kept in the lobby and there was not enough room to move around. They had many booths set up where you could learn about different things. There was a booth on hydration, smoking, stress, alcohol, food, and much more. You could even get your BMI done there. I checked out every booth and got a lot of free stuff. I got food, water, stress balls, Mr. Yuk stickers, a resistance band and much much more. I am glad I attended the wellness fair. I learned a bit and got free goodies. I don't know about you, but I love free stuff.

digital video

I have to say that doing the digital video has been my favorite project that we have done in Tech class so far. It was fun not only doing the video taping,but putting it all together was pretty fun as well. I liked putting music on and cutting out the scenes that I did not like. While doing the video taping, there were many times when I would start laughing or just stutter over my words. So to be able to take that out and make it look like I was serious was sweet. Maybe my next purchase will be a video camera and software to make movies.

SRUPE mini convention

Today I attended the mini convention here on campus. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I ended up having a blast. I learned quite a bit about some things that I knew nothing about. First I attended "The Simplified Tai Chi" put on by Professor Lui and Professor Bian. Professor Lui showed us a routine of Tai Chi and then they had us get up and taught us a few moves. It was neat to learn about it. Next I attended the "Synch or Swim" which was put on by the Butler High Aquaettes. I had only seen synchronized swimming done on tv during the Olympic games. I was amazed at how those girls could move like that in the water. They did all kinds of moves even underwater. Then I headed over to "Upgrade Yourself", which was presented by Lou Slatterback. He spoke about how we need to be the best that we can be as professionals and that we need to be positve as others are looking up to us. My favorite part of this session was when we got to dance with the young kids he invited from an elementary school in Oil City. We did two folk dances with the kids and then they showed us their moves in some other folk dances. It was so much fun and the kids were so exited to be here at the university. I wish I could of attended more sessions. I do however look forward to attending the state convention in Pittsburgh next fall.

Electronic Portfolio

I got so worked up about this electronic portfolio that it was all I could think about for days. I was so stressed out that I actually made myself ill. Why? It ended up not being so bad. Yes it took alot of time to put together and you couldn't wait until the last few days to put it together, but once i got everything together and someone showed me how to lyperlink it all together, it really didn't take me long to finish. There was a few things that I didn't get to put in the efolio like my video introduction or my video clip, but I do not have my video clip done at this time. Although this was one of the hardest projects I have had to do, I am happy that it is started and I can just add things each sememster. It will make things so much easier for when I graduate.

end of the semester

I am so glad that the end of the semester is just around the corner. I am so exhausted from all the work I have had to do. Also the stress is taking its toll. There is only one class really that I am having trouble with. I look forward to the day that I know it is the last day. I have no spare time to do anything from now until the end of the semester. But of course then I have presession.

Weather

I am so excited that the weather is finally starting to change. I was so sick of the cold weather. This past Saturday we had a meet and it was nice to just be wearing shorts and a tshirt without freezing. We had perfect weather. Although the weather is warming up, I don't think it is time to bring out the bikini's. On sunday I ran by a few young ladies laying out in their bikinis.

schedueling for classes

Its that time to start thinking about what classes to take for the fall semester. Im pretty excited that I have all of my general courses done and out of they way. Now all I have to do is finish with the classes in my major. The only problem with this is that a large number of them are offered at the same time. This makes it tough to get in enough credits to get done with school in four years. I am able to scheduele enough the next two sememsters without any conflict, but I know the closer I get to graduation the harder it will be. I wish some of the classes were offered more often than they are or have two or three classes a sememster instead of just one.
