Week Eight

Well folks, it is now the end of week 8 at Northwood (which means only 2 weeks, plus exam week until we are finished for the year!) It seems pretty clear to me that Spring is here! With this gorgeous weather, it has begun to hit all students. I have noticed the signs of Spring all around campus. For example; students have begun to no longer wear their coats, many will actually gather outside, some have even begun gathering outside at night, without a coat!

That’s right! It really is getting warm out! I heard it will be up to 82 degrees today here in Midland! Too bad I am going home to Grand Rapids this weekend, but it will be about 78 degrees there, so no worries, I will still get to enjoy the sun with my family! J

I have decided on what I will be doing this summer, I am going to have two jobs, one working as a marketing intern at a seamless rain gutter company, and one working as a carhop at my local Sonic Drive-In. I am excited to be working both of these jobs because I have done them both before and I enjoy the work, the other employees, and the customers at both jobs. I have always felt that it is very important work in an environment that you enjoy, if you work at a job that you can’t stand, it is just going to make you an unhappy person. Thus, I only work places that I enjoy.

……like Northwood! I’m not sure if I have mentioned it before, but I work at NU in the admissions office. If a high school student, or a student from another school, comes to campus to visit with an admissions counselor, and they would like a tour of the campus, I am one of the Student Ambassadors that get to give them a student’s perspective of the school. We get to answer the real questions that they have about student life, grades, jobs, etc. I love this job so much because I care about and love talking about Northwood University. It simply is the best school if you are serious about your education!

Well, it’s about time for me to pack up and go home for the weekend. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend, I know I will!
