NEWS!

Sooo… all the news!

First things first, since it’s official I can now say that my partner Nate has a job (WEEEEEE!!!!!!!) He is working as the network/PC specialist for the 3 newspapers around here. Apparently he is constantly busy and though he just had 3 days of work, he’s already been all over doing all sorts of things. I think this is great, and very,very exciting.

Secondly, it’s getting “colder” here. That means that today is a “cold” day… and it’s in the 70’s =]

ok it’s not that bad there… but there was a frost warning for Minneapolis!
I also shouldn’t tease too much because we have a day with a high of 57 coming up… It’s interesting because in MN, if it’s cold when you wake up, chances are it will stay that way. Here, it’s cold and foggy in the AM, but sunny and I’m sweating by the afternoon. That process is basically everyday.

In other exciting news, I was told that I need to blog every week for one of my classes about how my transition to grad school is going… sooooo…. check! If you notice a shift in content here, or more of an explanation about how something is effecting me or why I’m writing a piece, this is why =]

Also for one of my jobs I am heading up the departments blog, so I will be posting weekly there about things that are more research based and/or my story and how it is impacted by a study/backs up one, ect. Which is also exciting for me because the audience is “educators” at the institution which means I am running a platform from which to advocate for students well-being… WEEEEEEEEEE!

I’m taking a break from the homeworks and going to a haunted corn maze with Nate and some other friends tonight… which if you know me… will be… interesting… because I cannot handle scary things. Nate is prepared to be death gripped and I am prepared to be found tomorrow morning asleep in the corn where I will be hiding.
Wish me luck =]

As for you all, I hope your week has been wonderful and you weekend even better.
