Student Government Association: The Quick and Dirty

 Comments Off on Student Government Association: The Quick and Dirty Tags: , , , , ,

I feel that it’s very fitting that I write my first post of the 2014-15 school year about the UW-Stevens Point Student Government Association, since it’s probably the only thing I seem like I care about. In all fairness, I did become a student blogger in great part to share what I experience in SGA. […]

Hola Chicos, Hey everyone! I hope all you UW-Stevens Point students are surviving midterms and the cold streak of weather we have been having. I know personally I have been crazy busy (I have two midterms and a project due next week … ugh), but also a lot of good things have been happening. Last […]

Hey, CPS! I’m just checking in to do what I like to do at least yearly, which is to introduce the students, staff, faculty and supporters of our college to their student representatives through the Student Government Association. Especially in the case of College of Professional Studies students, I’d really like to help build an […]

I suppose it has taken me so long to write my final blog because it saddens me that my New Zealand journey has come to an end. At least for now. Leaving New Zealand was so hard for me and I felt that I wasn’t ready to leave just yet. I had met so many […]

Packers Nation in Point and Afar

 Comments Off on Packers Nation in Point and Afar Tags: , , , ,

I wear my Packers shirt like a flag. A declaration of allegiance and loyalty. An unspoken understanding among the vast International community that is Packers Nation–a community stretching far and wide, infiltrating households in some of the most remote areas of the world, injecting passion and pride into each. We’re everywhere. You run into a […]

Hola Chicos, As summer is coming to a close and fall nears closer, most of us begin to think about returning to school. Classes here at UW-Stevens Point start up in less than a month and many high school seniors are getting ready to apply for colleges. Students already in college may be wondering if […]

1 Month Later…

 Comments Off on 1 Month Later… Tags: , , , , , ,

It is unbelievable to think that we arrived back from Namibia just over a month ago! Since “relaxation” doesn’t exist in my vocabulary, I have seen just shy of four days at home since arriving stateside. Work  has me doing what I love and traveling all over to dance, giving me little to no time […]

I’ve always been a die-hard Harry Potter fan, but when I came to New Zealand I figured it was finally time to read the Lord of the Rings series and watch all of the movies. I quickly became addicted to the story and not much longer after that I booked my first LOTR tour. Peter […]
