I've been extremely busy, balancing classes with extracurriculars.
As soon as I came back from my co-op, I made it my goal to participate in multiple activities to enhance my remaining college experience, build up my resume, and to increase my networking.
I rejoined FAE, a sorority interest group that I was a part of before I left for Arkansas. I've gotten closer to my friends that are in it and met a lot of really sweet and genuine girls! It's a great way to start the semester, having such awesome people to welcome me back with open arms and give me encouragement when I'm stressed out over things such as homework and deadlines.
I helped out with this year's Asia Nite as well, but in a way that I never would have pictured myself! Due to a small miscommunication, I went from backstage manager to MC! I memorized my lines within a week and filmed videos during the days that led up to the show. We never got to rehearse much on stage, so I was nervous and practically hyperventilating as the show was about to start, but I actually felt quite natural on stage! This reminds me of when I wanted to be an actress for the longest time since I was 10! I finally got to live out my dream! Haha.
I started writing for the school newspaper also! It can be a bit of a bother having to meet deadlines, since I am a perfectionist and prefer to take days to write an article, but that's not possible due to my hectic schedule and deadlines for the different sections in the newspaper. However, I saw how much I can learn by writing! For example, I took up the story of Hinduism, and travelled to a Hindu temple for the first time! The priest there was kind and patient and explained many ideas of Hinduism to me, while a volunteer told me of the holidays and festivals that Hindus celebrate. I can also get paid for writing as well once my paperwork gets submitted!
But that's not all O_O!!! Thanks to Ashley's help, I am now vice president of administrations for American Marketing Association! I hold many secretarial duties, which I find that I manage quite easily.
Wow, I didn't realize how much I've been doing until I took a look at what I had just written! Well, above all of that, I hope to bring up my GPA!!!
We'll see how it goes!
