      <![CDATA[All HBU fresman are required to take a course called Freshman Year Seminar (FYS) which aids in the transition from high school to college.  This is my second year teaching FYS and it is so much fun!  I co-teach with Bob and we have a great class.

Part of the course requires a service project - this year our class went to Kolter Elementary to help with their International Festival. Kolter is a unique elementary school in that it requires their students to choose a language to specialize in starting in kindergarten - they can choose from French, Spanish, Japanese, or Chinese.  

Our entire class before the start of the festival:

Setting up:

Passing out flags:

Kiddos all dressed up!

Kayla is loving her job with the flags!
<img alt="IMG_2433%281%29.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/IMG_2433%281%29.jpg" width="448" height="336" />

Practicing their flag waving skills:
<img alt="IMG_2437%281%29.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/IMG_2437%281%29.jpg" width="448" height="336" />

Overall, I think our class enjoyed our service project!  I am so blessed to be able to teach such a great group of kids!

      <![CDATA[My favorite thing about October is that is means Fall is here; well for the most part.  It is has been extra humid this year the early part of October and has finally cooled off a little.  I love the cooler weather and being able to eat outside or just open the windows at home.  Its so nice and fun!

However, my most favorite part of Fall is when the leaves change color.
<img alt="fall-leaves.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/fall-leaves.jpg" width="640" height="426" />

<img alt="driving%20leaves.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/driving%20leaves.jpg" width="650" height="448" />


Those are two neat pictures I found that could explain to you what I mean.  In Houston we get leaves that change colors but what I love is when I am driving through East Texas on different roads seeing all the beautiful leaves and trees.  Fall is such a great time of year and I hope you all are enjoying it just as much as I am.  The holiday season is upon us and this is the start to beauty within nature and wonderful weather! 

Enjoy and blessings~

      <![CDATA[So I know it's football season right now but since I'm not a fan I'm super excited about basketball season starting. With basketball season about to begin that means homecoming (which we center around basketball) is also right around the corner. This year's events take place November 4th-9th and we have a lot of fun activities planned like a pep rally, dance, chilli cookoff and of course the big game vs University of the Ozarks. I look forward to homecoming because I get to see a lot of friends come back and see all the new and exciting changes here at HBU-from the new soccer field to the new pipe organ. There's always something new going on on HBU but you can keep up with all the HBU news at hbucollegian.com or through HBU's twitter.

So if you know any HBU alums-friends, family or neighbors please remind them about HBU homecoming. You can also come and check it out-it's a lot of fun! Go to hbu.edu/homecoming to see the schedule.

Kiza, our mascot will be there cheering her team on...will you?

      <![CDATA[As a part of Freshman Year Seminar (which every Freshman takes), each class holds a movie night.  We choose from a list of approved movies and then the entire class gathers somewhere to watch the movie together.  Since I teach a class, tonight my class is coming over to my house!  I'm cooking dinner - various types of pastas and sauces, complete with brownie hot fudge sundaes - and we're watching Last Holiday with Queen Latifah.  
<a href="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/last%20holiday.jpg"><img alt="last%20holiday.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/last%20holiday-thumb.jpg" width="500" height="500" /></a>


It's always fun to get to know my students better in an environment other than the classroom.  Many of our professors open their homes to their students, through this movie night, Bible studies and other events that they host at their house.  It's something that I think is fairly unique to HBU and one of the things I love about our university community.

Friday night after ComedySportz, we had karaoke at the "Blue Dog Lounge" on the Lake House Terrace. Our Husky Ambassadors took on an old Britney Spears tune that really got the crowd going:

While I was on the road, I have been listening to some old school music and it has made me think about old movies!  I love to watch old movies!!  We don't have people to entertain us like that anymore.  Below I put some pictures of some old school actors, actresses, singers, performers. See how many you know!!!  Watch out....some of them are really good looking!! Enjoy!

      <![CDATA[As you all know if you read this blog regularly, I am a huge animal lover...of all kinds!  Last week I found a really cool spider outside of our building at work.  I had never seen a bright green spider before.  With the help of Bob (HBU's Assistant Director of Admissions) we caught the spider so we could show everyone in the office and look up what kind of spider he was.  

<img alt="Sept09%20042.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/Sept09%20042.jpg" width="448" height="336" />


We discovered he is a Green Lynx.  Pretty cool, right?  Just another day at the office at HBU!

I met a lot of interested students though and ate a lot of good food which was my problem my first year here at HBU. I gained like 20 pounds from all the food I ate-it's hard to say "no" but I've learned my lesson and I'm trying to be good. This was also my first year to be on the road during my birthday-which was a little hard. I did enjoy it though because my best friend lives in south Texas and she made me cupcakes for my bday. I actually met her at HBU and we've been friends since our freshman year. We were tour guides together (ambassadors) so she helped me at some of the fairs too. Here's an old pic:

You make friends for life in college-something to look forward to while you're here!

Go Huskies!

      <![CDATA[Hey everyone! These past two weeks in Dallas have flown by! I had a great time meeting new students and school counselors. 
You may not know this about me, but I am terrible with directions. I could be holding the map in my hand and still get completely lost. I still get lost in Houston here and there. Sad, but true. So of course I got lost in Dallas, but not nearly as much as I expected. On multiple occasions I was confused by signs like this:

 <img alt="confusing_signs.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/confusing_signs.jpg" width="336" height="373" />

Just kidding. Although, I absolutely felt that way sometimes. 

If you have not come to check out campus yet, you are in luck! Preview weekend is coming up on October 2-3. It is a great time to meet other prospective students and see what HBU is all about. Visit our website at <a href="http://www.hbu.edu/visit">www.hbu.edu/visit</a>

Hope to see you then!

      <![CDATA[Well it is that time again!  Travel season!! A few of our counselors have already left for their travel weeks..John, Page, & Dianne.......I miss you!!  I headed out this Monday for Tyler,TX.  I went to pick up my rent-a-car and the SUV they had for me, they sold that morning!!!  So I had to take what they had left......a Chrysler Town & Country.....a mini van.....I'm a soccer mom now!! HA HA!
<img alt="mini%20van%20blog.JPG" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/mini%20van%20blog.JPG" width="448" height="336" />
Me and the mini van! Soccer Moms Unite!!

While I am out here in Tyler & Ft. Worth, and between fairs, I am stopping by some key churches and talking with Youth Ministers about getting FOCUS & Refuge booked!  I think I have told you all about them before; but to recap: FOCUS & Refuge are two music ministry groups.  FOCUS this year is an all girl performance group, while Refuge is a full worship band!!  They are both amazing!!!  I am so blessed with the students the Lord placed in the groups this year.

<img alt="Refuge%20blog.jpg" src="http://blogs.targetx.com/hbu/DawgTracks/Refuge%20blog.jpg" width="448" height="299" />

 If you know of a church service, youth service, Disciple Now, banquet, school chapel service, or event that needs a music ministry.....Let me know!!  Check the groups out at: www.hbu.edu/focus 

Well I guess that is all I have for you today.  Nice talking with you!  I will leave you with a funny picture of me and an HBU student, Sam Smith.  Her face is priceless!!

      <![CDATA[Hey Guys:

It's me Page, coming to you from Dallas, TX! As Ashley mentioned earlier travel season is upon us and HBU has hit the road traveling.  I have been in Dallas for a week now and its been raining everyday.  The sun did peek out this weekend so that was good.  My time in Dallas as been spent traveling to different high schools and cities sharing my love for HBU.  It so much fun to meet different students and their families while at college fairs.  I also love getting to see my friends from other universites.

Something important coming up for most colleges and universities is preview weekend.  This is a time for you to come and visit campus and get more insight to the university you are visiting.  Here at HBU our first preview weekend for the year is October 2nd and 3rd.  Make sure you check out this link and get registered. <a href="http://www.hbu.edu/visit">http://www.hbu.edu/visit</a>

Hope to see you soon! Have a great rest of the week.

Over the summer, I was asked to oversee the sororities here at HBU!  Can I tell you how excited and honored I am!  There are several options for HBU women who would like to join a sorority.  The four sorority options are Alpha Chi Omega, Phi Mu, Sigma Phi Lambda, and Sigma Lambda Gamma.  

Whatever option you choose, I know you will be happy that you went Greek!  All of the sororities at HBU focus on sisterhood, community service and scholarship.  Let me know if you have any questions regarding being in a sorority at HBU.  You can also follow our twitter updates at <a href="http://twitter.com/HBUGreek">http://twitter.com/HBUGreek</a>

For more information on going Greek at HBU, email me or click <a href="http://hbu.edu/greeklife">HERE</a>.  

Go Huskies and Go Greek,
