Hi friends,
It's a beautiful, sunny Saturday here in Nebraska and I feel the need to share positivity today! :)

Sooo...what have I been up to?
This past Monday, June 04, 2012, I started my second summer class. HISTORY! yayyy... NOT. I just finished a CORE requirement to graduate. I took Biomedical Ethics this past May, it counts as a senior perspective/certified writing requirment. Yeah I know, weird stuff that does not make sense. Just when I thought the nightmare of school was over, it began again! Let me tell you...it has been tiring. I have been balancing work, school, volunteering, and an extracurricular activity (Summer Apartment Council) for the past week. I hope this hard work will pay off eventually!
What is Summer Apartment Council? It is part of an organization on campus. I live in an on-campus apartment and I was able to score a position to be part of the council. As a council, we meet once a week or every other week and discuss ways to provide a better life for students living on campus for the summer. It can tend to be quiet at the dorms with everyone leaving for the summer... so why not plan events to keep people happy?! :) I love being part of such a wonderful organization, IRHG. I'm excited to spend part of my summer to work with an amazing group of people to provide what's best for students.
Anywho, with this hectic schedule under my belt, I always look forward to the weekend. It's great to have some time to yourself and to relax and enjoy life with friends, family, etc. The quote I added helps me to stay positive during tough situations and to remember that there is always a positive outlook to life no matter what. We all need time to breathe and make time for ourselves to make sure our mind is healthy and happy. Stress free also allows our bodies to be relaxed - better hair growth & clear skin! :] I hope everyone is having a great summer so far! You deserve it.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post!
Love always,
