Thanksgiving Break is Here

Dear readers,

I really must say that I am excited to be on break! I had an astronomy test yesterday that i think went well so I am happy about that. Other then that i have just been trying to relax this past week as much as possible.

Now that break is here I need to make sure I go see all my friends from back home. I got a lot of stuff I plan to get done in good old Michigan but we will find out next week if I get it all done.

I hope everyone has a great break and be prepared to hear all about my break and some of the sweet stuff i did on Sunday!

Thank-you for listening,

What a Week

Dear Readers,

This week has been pretty fun filled. I spent a lot of time in the KCOE RADIO studio installing some new equipment, I also spent a little bit of time studying. Before I forget I would like to let you all know I spent a bus load of time playing the new call of duty game for xbox. I stayed up until 7am on the day it came out, guess that is one of the benefits to college and freedom.

However staying up so late was probably the stupidest thing I have done in awhile because it left me extremely sleepy for the duration of the day. Regardless the game is sweet and was well worth it. Other than that I spent sometime working on a research paper and preparing for a exam on Friday. Both of those thing went pretty well and my research paper is due this Wednesday.

Looking at my Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings I hosted my show on KCOE RADIO www.kcoe48.com from 10pm until 11pm. This Thursday we brought in a special guest D.C. who is a local musician who just released his album last week.


Once I finally made it to Friday all I could think about was the big event that KCOE Radio was hosting in Armstrong and Douglas Hall lobby. We held a big mixtape release party from some local Coe College musicians and it was a great turn out. There were tons of people, free CDs, free food and live performances. Overall it was a great time. I also spent that Friday evening on duty with one of my Resident Assistants and we decided it was a good night to cook an entire pack of bacon.


Saturday was not anything to special. I was feeling a little sick due to weather changes so I just stayed to myself a little bit and played some video games.

Sunday was a very busy day. From the moment I woke up I had to go to fraternity meetings that would take place from 10 am until 6pm. We had to take care of elections stuff and it was overall a very enjoyable experience.

Below are 2 photos from the week the first being the fortune cookie I got from Hyvee that came true and the other being a buddy's messy couch

Thank you for your time,

Wild and Wonderful Adventures

Dear Readers,

I have had a pretty great week. I have been getting a lot of stuff done for my classes, which is always a good thing. I also started selecting my classes for next semester which I am pretty excited for. Other than that my week was not to special. I gave a lot of tours this week which is always a good way to meet/ get to know about new people. I really enjoy that aspect of working in the admission department.

This week seemed to fly by and I do not know if it was because I was busy or if it had anything to do with the fact I planned on road tripping this weekend, either way the week moved to fast for me to even keep up with. I headed out to Des Moines this weekend with a few buddies to visit a buddy. It was only about a hour and forty five minute drive so not bad at all. It was kind of like a going away party/ weekend for a good friend of ours who is heading back to Nepal after winter break.

I must say we had a good time this weekend late night pizza runs, random adventures on the town and we also played the game of Life which was a lot more fun then I expected. Other than that we were all counting down until the release of the video game modern warfare 3 which came out last night, I spent a lot of hours playing it and enjoyed every second of it.

As far as the rest of my week goes, I have a test Friday to prepare for in my Jazz History class, and I also have to get a few things done for my seminar course. Other than that I am not to busy with school stuff so I plan on a possible movie night with a group of friends sometime this week.

Hope you all got to check out the Coe College online radio show, if not feel free to by just going to www.kcoe48.com
