Valentine's Day

Posted February 15th, 2010 at 08:27 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

Another day, another dollar. My friend utters that little phrase every now and then and, while I have no clue of the exact parameters of that phrase, it is somewhat catchy. Anyways, that’s about how I feel right now. Another week is about to ensue. Hold on tight and enjoy the ride…or at least make it through the ride.

Any fun Valentine’s Day stories to share? I ended up just hanging around, making Valentines like I was in third grade and watching “I Hate Valentine’s Day” with some...

First Date Ammo

Posted February 12th, 2010 at 10:18 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

So, who else never thought this day would come? My roommate is currently singing to herself in her room (It's 9:00 AM). haha Living on campus (or in an apartment of any kind where you have roomies) is really entertaining.
  • We have random people knock on our door in the middle of the night.
  • We play the game of "who will take out the kitchen trash" because we all think that the other people should do it... so noone does it. Guess who eventually quells her stubbornness and takes it out?

Too Many Snow Days?

Posted February 11th, 2010 at 08:34 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

I woke up this morning with a glimmer of hope for a snow day! I popped open the plastic-y cheap blinds that adorn my lovely dorm room and, low and behold, it was snowing like crazy. Score. Then again, it may be a thick coat of snow, but I'm not 100% sure school will be cancelled because...A] We just had a snow day about a week ago. B] That snow day was also on a Thursday. Wierd. C] It is supposed to stop at noon.

I love the look of snow. It's beatutiful. However, driving, walking...

Coffee & Cereal: The essentials

Posted February 10th, 2010 at 10:20 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

I just got back from a Food Micro test that was less than stellar, despite the 4 hours of sleep that I got last night trying to study for it. Don't you hate it when tests utilize applied knowledge, as opposed to just simple Q&A. Oh college, what will I do with you? As I stated before, I stayed up into the wee hours of the night. However, I had Mr. Coffee crankin' out drinks like there was no tomorrow and a box of cereal to give me just the sugar rush that I needed to keep truckin' along!...

It's scary. It's awesome.

We had someone come and talk to us about Strength’s Quest yesterday. I am usually not one for speakers because sometimes they can be a little bit monotone and boring or so caught up in the information that they feel so passionately about that they lose their audience. However, this perky and cute lady broke out of that stereotype and was right up my alley. She was young and “fresh”, shall I say.

Anyways, if you have not taken a Strength’s Quest assessment, then you are missing out....
