A week plus... yup I have been slacking with writing in this! You know how finals are... right? Well, happy Monday and happy first day of finals! Luckily, I have completed 3 and only have 4 left. 7 finals? That just doesn't seem okay with me. I guess teachers think we take on some superhuman form in the last two weeks of finals. Well, reality check, I am still me... no super powers to study for 7 tests! So much has happened in the past week! I didn't write about it on my last post, but I want to share my exciting news! So, about two weeks ago I attended the 15th Annual Student Leadership Awards Night. First of all, let me just say how honored I felt just to be there, be in SUCH GREAT company. The room was full of student leaders from all over campus. Second: I just want to say how PROUD I am of my SOAR family.
Third: Sending out a huge thank you to my boss for writing a nomination for me. After dinner, awards started, and I was blessed to receive the Southern Talon Award. Presented annually to students with above 60 credit hours who have exemplified a commitment to enhancing campus life at Georgia Southern. Students must demonstrate outstanding involvement at Georgia Southern. This is a one-time award. Its days like that one that make me feel all my hard work is for something.
This past week was also the Annual CRI End of the Year Banquet. Its always bittersweet attending this. It is one of the few times of the year that the whole CRI family gets together. But, it also signifies a large chunk the family saying goodbye. I have been with group fitness now for 2+ years, so I have been there through lots of hires/changes/etc. This year really holds a special place in my heart- I have worked with some of these graduating seniors since I was hired. Even though I hate to say goodbye, I know the future holds great things for each and every one.
Speaking of graduating seniors, Saturday marks the day for commencement. Yet again, I feel like I am repeating myself, but this is a bittersweet thing. With such a small major, we have built quite the system within. I am sad to see all of our seniors head out into the real world but I know they are off to an awesome places. That is the beautiful part of our profession: we will always be able to help someone. Congrats and good luck to all seniors. 
On that note, I can not believe where time has gone. IM GOING TO BE A SENIOR! ... not before this summer is done of course... but for real where did time go? I remember moving into Centennial like it was yesterday.
May training for SOAR starts next week. M-F, 10am-10pm. Also, the second week of that, I start one of my summer classes. I think its Environmental Sociology? Gotta love that minor. Then, making our way into SOAR sessions. Gonna be a great summer.
Off to study for my next final. I wish all of you the very best of luck.
I know it is hard, but try and sleep, it is the very best thing you can do... other than eating balanced meals :D Good luck and stay motivated. Hey... we are almost done!
