Typical Albright

In the bathrooms, we have something called Stall Talk. It is like a newspaper, except it is in the bathroom stalls, so that you can read it while you're in there! It's quite clever, in my opinion. However, this was on this month's issue. It made me giggle because they are your usual tips about Halloween, but they're given a cute and comical twist.

I also learned from my friend who is an RA…

OPEN HOUSE!

Hey Friends,

So I had a really great weekend, and ya wanna know why? Because I got to be a part of the first official Open House of the 2010-2011 school year. Now apart from waking up early, which was made a lot easier with the help of coffee and a blueberry donut, I got to meet and talk with a TON of perspective Albrightians!

I know that when I went through the college search process... both the first and second time... that meeting the people on each campus was a big deal… Continue

Hey Guys!

So...for the past few weeks, I've been off my game.

In college, it's BAD to get off your game. Know why? Because you fall behind, you stress out and that does not lead to a good outcome.

But starting today...and for the rest of my college career, Szalene's game is back. =)

I'm going to manage my time and calendar perfectly, well noone's perfect but you get the idea. =)

LET'S GET BACK ON TRACK!

Who's to Blame?

My wife spends mornings struggling to get my seven-year-old daughter dressed (trust me I’ll get to the point quick). After a while my wife asks me if I feel she is enabling the problem by helping our daughter every morning instead of requiring her to do such things for herself. My response, “Of course! And you’ll probably be the mom that fills out your daughter’s college applications and calls…

Crazy doesn't even begin to explain it.

So this week has been eventful to say the least. Where can I even start? Well it is mid-terms week and that means two things lots of work and lots of stress. I have a huge mid-term for my senior seminar and a couple of projects due this week for my other classes. I have faith though that I can do it all! I just have to keep working.

On top of all the stress from school work, we have two games for volleyball this week. Two MAJOR games! On Monday we played Delaware Valley College and we… Continue

So....

Over the summer a thought came to me.

The thought was this...I have some what of an eye for photography. Here's what happend. My and the fam were in Ocean City NJ for a lil family trip. I was exploring, and decided to go to the board walk and get on the ferris wheel. On said ferris wheel, I took some pic, one pic was of my shoes. The lighting was very good in this pic, but it wasn't intentional. Two more similar incidents…

Fall break is here!

Hello everyone! Well it is officially mid-term time, and that means everyone is studying hard for their exams and getting ready for fall break! I don't know about everyone else, but it seems that this semester is flying by! I am having so much fun this year....it's sad that this is my last year of college :( Homecoming last weekend was an absolute blast! I saw so many of my alumni friends and got to spend a lot of time with my parents. Friday night I attended the airbands performance, which…

Sorry guys. :(

I am so so so sorry that I haven't blogged lately. There are no words to describe how busy I am! Between pledging a sorority, classes, work, and lesson planning, I've had little to no free time to just sit down and blog. But I'm going to make an effort to blog every two weeks, or more, from now on. :)

So my blog for today is about my favorite campus tour thus far. This past weekend was Homecoming Weekend, and campus was full of alumni, friends, and family. I give tours in the… Continue

Take it with a grain of salt, laugh it off.
It'll all be well in the end.

That is all.

For the Love of Fall and Family

Fall is one of my favorite seasons and this weekend was perfect fall weather here at Albright. I love the changing of the leaves and the beautiful colors and atmosphere it produces. It just makes me smile! :)

This weekend was homecoming weekend and I definately learned a lot in my senior year homecoming. Unfortunately I was not on campus for most of homecoming but I couldn't have spent it with better people and wouldn't have spent it doing anything else. We… Continue

Homecoming Weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay I know it has been a minute. I truly apologize, but life has been so busy. Anyway, I had planned on recording my Biology Lab Trip up to Mount Penn, but that did not work out. I forgot to charge the recorder (how stupid of me to forget). So I hope to be able to record some other trips I will be attending this year. My Ecology class and I are suppose to be going to the Poconos for the weekend of October 22 and 23. I am pretty excited, and I do plan to record that. I just have to remember…

Homecoming and Other Things!

It's been almost a month since I posted....sorry guys. I've been SO SO SO busy.

Where will I find the time???

I don't know, but I hope some fun lies in the celebrations for me. I think after Saturday, I will be… Continue

Selfishness VS Selflessness

So every Thursday I meet with a group called "Jesus Over Smokes and Chocolates." We come together with different themes each week and discuss philosophical and religious ideas. Today's discussion was about selfishness vs selflessness and what they entail. We decided that everything that mankind does is neither completely selfish nor completely selfless. Our terms are too black and white. We need to redefine everything as mostly selfish or mostly…
