Still Settling in...

Can you believe I'm still getting settled into this school year? I think it's because I am working a lot now and it has been brutal down in the Moses Taylor ER. We are very short staffed. I also have taken this semester off from Rugby. I miss it a lot especially playing on Saturday. Fortunately though we still have a strong team and won against Muhlenberg last Saturday.
Classes have been going well, only a few quizzes and projects so far. We had to come up with a sustainable product and present it to the class for my Sustainable Marketing class. It was pretty interesting trying to find a product that doesn't already exist. There is really so much out there now that is sustainable or at least more eco-friendly than its normal version. I got to work with a girl from the Netherlands. She had a lot of ideas and it was fun talking about what she thought was different here in comparison to her home. It's kind of embarrassing to be an American in a class about sustainability with people from Europe. We are so behind here.
I find out who my business mentor is today! I'm so excited to talk to them. I've been sprucing up my resume with Career Services so that it looks more professional when they see it. I hope I gain as much as I can from this experience.
Habitat for Humanity also started up with our first meeting. I can't wait for my board-memberly duties to kick in. I love this club and really want to do more. We have seriously grown in numbers and our county affiliate has resurrected itself so we will be doing a lot more locally this year. We will be breaking ground soon for our first Scranton Habitat Home!
It's off to class for me!
