Hello readers, within the past two weeks I have experienced a lot in England. I went on a ship cruise, traveled to Cambridge and Scotland, and attended a mindfulness workshop that was led by Buddhist monks. The ship cruise was a fascinating educational experience and a great way to see the buildings of London. During […]

I have always enjoyed food, travel and learning. You can probably only imagine my excitement when I was able to attend the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Food and Nutrition Conference and Exposition (FNCE) in Philadelphia this year with nine other UW-Stevens Point students. I was fortunate enough to attend last year’s conference in San […]

When I first started attending UW-Stevens Point a year ago, I mentioned some of the things that were different compared to my last school. One of the first things I noticed when I got here was that people will actually hold the door open for others! When you walk into a building and there are […]

If I could have any super powers, I would want to be able to teleport. Just imagine the things I can accomplish with the time having to drive somewhere and find parking, not to mention avoiding those parking tickets. I also wouldn’t have to worry about leaving extra early to walk there. Well, since I […]

About two weeks ago, I wrote about my experiences from my wonderful internship at Evolve Wellness Center and my interesting classes in London. Near where I live, there is a wonderful and a large park called Regents Park. Henry VII appropriated the park to use it as a hunting ground. The park is an amazing […]

It was the best of times, it was the busiest of times. After completing the first four weeks of this semester at UW-Stevens Point, I have come to a few realizations. First, I love my classes, and second, this semester is not going to be as relaxing as I thought. With some of my first […]

Well, we just finished week three of classes. How’s your stress level? I am to the point where it will be a miracle to have a full head of hair for winter break. In college, we take on a lot of stressful situations once we get to the higher level classes in our majors. Some […]

Taking it easy…ish

 Comments Off on Taking it easy…ish Tags: , ,

Prior to the start of my hopefully last year, I ask myself if I’ll take it easy or work extra hard. This is probably my lightest semester considering I’m only taking 15 credits, working 16 hours a week in the dean’s office and six hours in the CPS Café, serving as co-president of the Student […]

Reaping What You Sew

Life has its way of letting us know that the time and energy we put into worth while endeavors (plus one for using a “big word”) don’t go to waste. If you’re big into gardening like I am, you know how much more sweet it is to bite into a big juicy tomato you’ve put […]
