Bryana Leaves… 2008-08-17 18:15:43 It stinks when everyone leaves before you do…I’d rather be the one everyone is saying goodbye to because that is actually what is happening, but it seems reverse because some of them are going home before school gets started.
Bryana, one of the close friends I made here in California, left today to go back to [...]
Hospitality Excellence Award by the State of Florida 2008-09-19 17:00:57 “I treasure every moment in class.” When I say that, I am not “brown nosing” or?? as someone might say “sucking up”. That statement truly defines the experience I have in the classroom with my hospitality classes. As I senior, the classes begin to make total sense. I am now able to see why Purchasing [...] Read more:Hospitality

Freshman Convocation Speech 2008-09-08 16:48:28 As SGA President, I was selected to give a speech to the Class of 2012 during their Freshman
Convocation. As most people know, it takes me a while to write a speech. It is something that I take pride in and want to ensure every word is truly how I want to express myself. With [...] Read more:Speech
Slow Move In 2008-09-04 17:09:01 I have been an RA for the passed three years and this move in has been the slowest and most relaxing yet. We had to wake up at the crack of dawn, 7am, in order to be in the lobby by 8am, but once we were set up it was smooth sailing.
This year is a [...]
New York Escape 2008-10-02 23:03:06 Sometimes you just need a little vacation, a time to step away…I left yesterday to New York
for the weekend until Monday. It is definitely more chilly up here than in Florida. It hasn’t gotten significantly colder, but you need to wear a jacket and jeans. There are so many hotels in New York, that [...] Read more:Escape
SGA not invited to State of the University 2008-10-02 22:32:17 For the past two years the SGA e-board has been invited to the State
of the University
address, but this year that was not the case. It was disappointing and discouraging as I passed the news onto my fellow e-board members. A university cannot operate without students. If every student decided they didn’t want to [...]
SGA Elections Kick Off 2008-09-26 12:01:20 I don’t think that you can walk around with knowing who is running for Freshman Class Representative. The competitive election among Denzel Samuel and Omar Herrera is getting heated. Both of them were in the Student Center this morning planning last minute advertisement with sandwich boards, posters, banners, and more. For the past two years [...] Read more:Elections

Halloween Bash 2008-10-26 23:57:01 I never realized how challenging it is to eat a donut off a string. The donut keeps moving and tends to hit you in the face from every direction. Our entire RA staff in EML did a Halloween
Bash tonight in the lobby for all of our residents to come check out. Ivana and I [...]
SGA Academic Forum 2008-10-23 16:07:47 With the second ever AcademicForum
sponsored by SGA coming up this evening, we were psyched!!! There was a huge hype across campus for the release of the January Term Courses. VP of Academic Affairs, Cynthia Paterson, answered ANY question that students had concerning the academics at the university and in particular, the J Term. [...]

Poetry Coffee House 2008-10-17 16:01:06 This was my first ever PoetryCoffeeHouse
tonight. I had always walked through on various occasions to check it out. There is usually a large crowd and very talented individuals who express their feelings, opinions, and thoughts through poems, statements, short stories, and personal reflections. This month’s Poetry Coffee House was focused on cancer [...]
Red Sox Are Not Done 2008-10-17 15:46:28 Tampa Bay fans demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm and excitement as the game last night rolled into the seventh inning and Red Sox
fans were down 7-0. As a member of Red Sox Nation, you know the game isn’t over until the umpire says it’s over. The determination and high spirits of the players and [...]
Candy Apple Bar 2008-10-17 15:33:47 For almost every KOR Coffee in the Courtyard I am usually in charge of the food. Being a hospitality major they usually think I can accomplish that task. If we were in New England I could come up with some many ideas centered around warm apple pie, apple crisp, apple cider, and other scrumptious fall [...] Read more:Candy

Those are just some of the words to describe the RHA and Residence Life MessyGames
event. It was popular among 24 Resident Assistants during training so we thought we would bring it to campus. Eleven teams partcipated in a series of events
Tapping a Keg 2008-11-12 20:10:10 The name of this blog entry may spark some interest by itself, but it clearly defines the issues that happened tonight at the Relay For Life Kick Off. We wanted to have something new and different at our kick off. With so many events occurring on campus a lot of the refreshments get repeated. Ice [...]
Sleeping with the President 2008-11-06 01:18:05 Unbelievable attendance tonight in the Knights’ Court. I never expected to see over 70 students come up to the Knights’ Court for the SGA Election Party. It was outstanding attendance and everyone had a blast. We went through ten pizzas, chips, novelty ice cream, sodas, and more within seconds that we had to go back [...] Read more:Sleeping

SAACURH 2008 2008-11-01 16:30:19 So I had these high hopes of being able to live feed what I video taped at opening ceremonies, but I am not sure how to convert the video file yet. Opening ceremonies at SAACURH 2008 at Clemson University kicked off tremendously with a step show followed by some awesome roll call videos. Each state [...]
