         <title>Alumni!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[This weekend was so much fun! It was Alumni Weekend here are Saint Leo and all of your old friends that graduated from Leo come back into town to visit! It was particularly fun because we had the first annual Alumni volleyball game! I am not an Alumni, yet I was allowed to play with the alumni girls against the current players! I missed them all so much! It was great to see everybody, and I am already sad that they are gone!

Before we started the night!

 After the game we all went out to Channelside to go dancing and have a good time. Channelside is a lot of fun because it has such a variety of venues to choose from. Dueling piano players, restaurants, line dancing you name it. We went to a place called AjA. It was really interesting to see the eclectic crowd that this place draws in. Their was a collection of young adults as well as older couples. To say the least it was a lot of fun!

         <title>Spring Break!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Any college student will tell you that Spring Break can not come soon enough! This year I went home to New York to see my new nephew Keagan! He is so cute! My sister had him on February 18 and also has another son Evan who is about a year and Â½. They were such a handful. Even with the help of my sister, her husband and myself, those boys still gave us a run for our money! It was never a dull moment. Evan is constantly getting into mischief, and Keagan needs developmental help like eating, getting his diaper changed ext. It was so nice to see them but it was terrible to leave.

I also was able to see my wonderful, yet crazy friends!  Saint Pattyâ€™s day was a blast! We went to a bar called MJs. To say the least we had a few drinks and enjoyed each others company.  Again it was really hard to leave everybody but the break was amazing.  Itâ€™s nice to get away for a week to see the family and friends that you normally would only see during Christmas or Thanksgiving.  Now itâ€™s back to work! Only a month left of school!

         <title>Focus on the Nation</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Every year Saint Leo, along with many other Universities, host an event called Focus on the Nation. Classes have alternate schedules so that students are able to partake in the presentations as well as watch other students and faculty present on issues regarding global warming, social issues etc.  My Mass Media in Society class decided to do our part and put together a presentation for the event. We worked on the project regarding concerns in the area of Rwanda. We had to do this presentation in front of faculty, staff and students! Talk about nerve racking. I thought that I would for sure pass out in front of everyone. However I got through it and we received a lot of positive feedback! Our class did a great job getting the message out their about Rwanda as well as worked on our public speaking fears!!!
It was really nice to see how much support we were given by our peers and others.

We made a food table for our guests!

         <title>ARRRR!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Each year my friends and my self wake up bright and early to go to down town Tampa to enjoy the Gasperilla day parade! Gasperilla is traditionally a celebration of when the pirates took over Tampa Bay! The parade consists of HUGE floats being steered by bead throwing pirates! Itâ€™s very similar to Mardi Gras with the exception of nudity and the addition of pirates! The pros. stated that the event attracts about half a million onlookers a year! One of the most fun parts about the parade is that many people dress up for it as well!

This year we actually decked out a shopping cart and made it into â€œThe Black Pearlâ€?! Yes it still was a shopping cart with plywood, but use your imagination! It was fantastic; we put everything we could possibly need in it and more. Plus, it was perfect to stand on when trying to get beads! I canâ€™t wait for the adventures of next year!
