So this is a little late but I need to fill you guys in on whats all been happening. Senior year has been crazy so far and none of the projects have even begun yet! Basically what has really been driving me nuts is my schedule. I have 2 night classes, Monday and Tuesday night and they feel so long. Because of the Tuesday night class I had to drop my ballet class with the older kids and now I take it on Wednesday with the under 10 crowd. Its a little awkward. I also have Hula and I have to come up with a bunch of songs to choreograph, teach, and then dance for Luau in April. On top of all that plus school I have to start my career search. I had to re-do my resume which was fun but now it needs to be refined so I can send it out and get this internship my friend is doing. It has to deal with social media/marketing, which is really interesting. If I get that then I have to quite ballet which will be okay but I will be a little sad :(.
On Friday I got an interesting call. Apparently another area of campus wants to see if I fit the image of their new campaign. I have a phone interview on Wednesday so I will let you know what happens! Sorry no pictures this time. I will try find something cool to share later this week :D

And so it begins...
Hi Guys! School started this week...YAY! Sunday night, well Monday morning really, I had the hardest time getting to sleep because all I could think about was the fact that this was going to be my FINAL semester of school. It was SO weird! Anyway, once I got to school something pretty funny happened, I am pretty stoked about it actually.
My feet (yes my actual feet, covered in shoes) appeared on a POSTER! HAHAHAH a POSTER! for some this UNC new branding event on Thursday. Here is a picture...they are in the top left corner :D
Well what happeend was last semester I went to a model call for UNC and I had my funky shoes on (not the ones pictured) but these other ones much funkier ones. The photographers thought they were pretty radtacular...I can't blame them really...and so they took a pic with me and my shoes and then I got picked to take some more pictures. It was a really cool experience. They asked me to bring a bunch of my shoes and so there are now a bunch of pics of my feet teehee. They also somehow got a picture of me jumping, I was amazed that this photographer could just click and boom it was perfect. How long does it take before you perfect timing like that? I think I am going to experiment with this later...yup...I am.
Besides all that classes are pretty cool. I got into this awesome Ad Campaigns class where we are going to do this HUGE contest. My classmates are also super excited about that. I have another class with Professor McCorkle, who is awesome I might add...take is e-marketing class if you get the chance...anyway it got me thinking. A popular new trend in marketing is the whole Flash mob idea, here is my favorite.
Since UNC is doing this new branding effort...what if we did a flash mob...either around campus or like McCorkle suggested to us last semester, at Graduation. How SICK would that be?! I wonder who I should send this idea to. We could show the different cultures on campus, the dance alliance could teach an easy dance, the steppers could do a quick thing, the Hawaiians could hula or do a tahitian number, etc. It would be awesome! All I am saying is BOOM youtube=free publicity. McCorkle's a genious I tell you.
Speaking of Hula, practice starts this Thursday the 14th at 8pm in the lower fitness room at the rec. Come join us if you like :)

Its comin and its comin fast!!
Wellllll I was gonna write sooner but got so distracted by everything else going on haha so here goes...
About the Taro...well we never really got around to it, what we did learn is that the root is covered in tiny little hairs that get stuck in your skin when you clean it and makes your hands super itchy! After that I lost interest :D sorry...I would share a picture but it pretty much looks like a giant turd haha no joke leave me a comment and maybe I will post a picture later!
So Christmas came and went, we went to our usual Christmas Eve Party at my best friend's house (our parents are really good friends). Here is a pic of my Mom and me from the party.
and we made Crab Cheese Wontons! :D YUMMY!
For New Years I went to stay with my boyfriend in Phoenix and we played with remote control helicopters :D it was fun stuff
But now its back to school time. We are at the last weekend before the semester starts and I really don't think I'm ready...of course that could be the snow talkin...I did finish up my Oceanography class. I really wish that I knew how these online classes were before my last interim session in college. They are so awesome! Take an online class if you need any extra credits...they are way easy...well it might also be that you only have one class but still...anyways now its book buying time and I HATE it...so far I am up to $300 and that's 2 books UGHH! Buy used and buy online guys! Talk to you soon!
