least favorite thing

Scheduling classes and getting into classes is always a huge problem at Wittenberg, especially for communication classes, although i'm sure others are equally as tough. It always seems the classes I want to get into fill up right about the professors aren't allowed to let anymore students in becauase there's a limit at 13 or 15 students. If they would just open it up to 20 or another class everything would work out. I don't want to take pointless classes because I need the credits when I can't get into other class. Hopefully, signing up for classes next semester won't be a problem since I'll be a senior. My fingers are crossed!

spring break

I kept getting asked by people why I would want to spend spring break with my parents when I'm a 21 year old college student. Honestly, a week in the caribbean relaxing, getting tan, and eating good food sounds a pretty damn good vacation to me. However, this year's spring break turned out to be much more than what I expected.

My parents are a very fun set of people and like to have their share of fun. While most college students were spending their breaks drinking 24/7, I was doing the same. Just more casually. Starting the morning off with some bloody mary's sounded great to me.

The last time I went to St. Marteen my freshmen year of high school, my best friend and I were stalked and harrassed quite a bit. We were told islanders were into blonde haired girls. Well, I thought it wouldn't be so much of an issue this year, which it wasn't, but instead it was the older American men. And by old I mean 28 and 35. Which is old compared to a 21 year old. So, I just went on with my break and had as much fun as I could!

my favorite thing about witt

When I first came to Wittenberg I absolutely loved it because everyone was nice to everyone and people seemed to fit in no matter what. The people on this campus seemed to be care free and not care about what grade or age you were. It may also seem different now since I am older and made my group of friends and don't really run into a lot of people that I don't know. I thought I would love coming to a small school, but some of the time I wonder what it would be like at a bigger school.

Witt definitely offers the close feeling of family since we are such a small school. It may be bad sometimes that everyone hears everything, but I think it just makes you closer as a community to the people you are closer with. At times I always say I hate Wittenberg, but in the end I think it's a great school and has a lot to offer.

big story

For my semester long story, I've decided to write about what exactly goes on in the hollow. We know that it's a tradition to go streaking sometime throughout your 4 years at witt, but I'm sure there's more nudity than that. Along with that there's smoking, studying, laying out with then weather's nice, sex, activities such as frisbee golf. All sorts of different activities that are know and not known about. I will interview students who have done or know of other's who have participated in these activities. So if anybody knows anything else they know about what goes on in the hollow or has done so themsleves feel free to let me know!

where i'm going for spring break

Most student's are spending their spring breaks (if possible) going somewhere to party. However, since my freshman year of high school, I have been traveling with my parents. A lot of people would think this would be boring, but I enjoy relaxing on my spring break. I wouldn't be able to handle a week in panama let alone all day drinking during wittfest.

Usually, we travel to Barbados (where is Rhianna is from), but this year we are changing it up and going to St. Martin. My mom loves the caribbean so we spend our spring break where we know will have great weather, food, and people. I went to St. Martin my freshman year of high school with my mom and my best friend and I'm very excited to go back this year. Barbados is my favorite island out of them all, but I think it's time for a change. I'm counting down the days until we leave and I'll be in the warm sun and eating tons of seafood!

when enough is enough

I've come to learn lately that people love to get into other people's business when it's not necessary. Who are people to tell another person how to run and live their lives. People have to make mistakes and live and learn on their own. In a recent "misunderstanding," an anonymous person was trying to tell me who I can and can't hang out with. By threatening to damagae another person's property, the anonymous thought I would give in. Instead a drunken yelling spree came out of it not to say embarrassing moments with other people. Needless to say, stay out of people's lives and let them make their own decisions.

Ice Day's Galore!

Who would of thought Wittenberg would give us three days off of school? It's been said in the past, that Witt was horrible with canceling classes. However, the ice that covered our entire campus may have been annoying and dangerous, but many students were happy with the days off. Our third day of canceled classes came to a shock for a lot of students, but it said that a male student had fallen and cracked his head open. So, with the danger of other students falling, Witt made the right choice in giving us another day off. There's still plenty of ice around the campus and students are continuing to fall, but I do have to say Witt has been better at trying to get rid of it. So thanks to the ice storm, students had a nice relaxing three days off. Maybe more to come?
