Its been a while...

Okay, Now after a few week break I am back at it blogging away. I will try to do a few entries this week to catch up since the end of the school year.

The last weekend of school as part of my job with the office of Residence Life I helped to close up the Residence Halls. It is always crazy to see how fast the campus can get so quiet. I have to admit it is kind of fun for a day being on a quiet campus. All the busyness died down and all the stuff had stuff to do just no one was in a rush which was so nice and peaceful. While I was around I helped out at the Mass that is always held on the friday before graduation and then I helped out at graduation that Saturday. One of the secondary reasons I helped out with graduation was that then I got to see how it all works for next year and tell my parents what to expect. Being the oldest I have always experience events like graduations first in our family. On the Sunday after graduation I helped to move all the senior out of the on campus housing and then in the evening the office of Residence Life takes the staff out for dinner to celebrate a year of hard week. In a way it was a little sad this was my second and last year working for Residence Life. In a way it will be nice because I do have my internship at Nonprofit Leadership Alliance planning their annual conference to take place in January 2014 in Chicago!

After the weekend moving others out it came time to move out my self. On monday I had dinner with one of my wonderful friends and headed back to Chicago. I took a different way back since I was going to stop and see my sister at Bradley University and help her pack up some of her larger objects. It was nice to get a change of scenery on the way back (speaking in relative terms that is the scenery of farm towns can only change so much). It was fun to see my sister and she even took me out for lunch/dinner. I am not sure if it was because I was hungry or if it was actually super good but I had a fresh fish sandwich which was super good. In a way I really don't mind the 8 hour drive that much it is nice to have some time to your self to just think and channel surf the radio and find interesting things like the reading of hog prices and some great country music stations :)


Anyway this is at least an update of the first part. A lot has happened since I shall write another entry tomorrow.  

Here is a cool pic/quote I found:
