Life at Pittsburg State University is never that boring... Friends are always around and campus always has something going on. I love this campus and wouldn't change anything for the world!

Bored and in the U-Club. It's fun down here. Very much like a coffee shop but I think the music may be better. More up to date and less Indie. I love my coffee shops, don't get me wrong, it's great when you want calming music, but sometimes you have to be in the mood for it. The good part about this is that I get to smell the coffee being made (O, the song Big yellow Taxi by Counting Crows just came on! I LOVE this song!) and it's making me want coffee. A mocha does sound good right now...

**leaves to go get one**

Mmm. You guys should really come here to Jazzman's cafe down here. No, it doesn't only serve coffee (Although it's Seattle's Best... yummy) but it also has baked goods and right next to it (You order at one register) it has a Freshens which has pretzels, ice cream, and some AMAZING smoothies.

Anyways, this week has been dorm signups. Everyone here gets the chance to sign up for a room they want. The first night it was open door from like, 6-10 so people from other dorms could come and see what another was like. Personally I went to check out Willard. A friend of mine is going to be an RA there and I'm thinking about going there with her. It's me and possibly two other girls (Rockie and Sarah) that went. My other friend Megan is looking off campus now. As a soon-to-be senior, I think she should live off campus. As a soon-to-be senior myself, I'm content living in the dorms for right now. It's right across the street from the main buildings I'm in and it's handy.

A lot of people, when on tours, ask me which dorms I think are the best. I have a major bias. I've lived on the south campus for my entire time here. I love my dorms. HOWEVER, if you ask someone who has spent their entire time on north campus, they will probably say that the north side is better. There's pros and cons to each side. South side (SOUTHSIDE!!! ...Sorry, I'm from Olathe South... it's a habit) is closer to Whitesitt, McCray, the FACS (Family and Consumer Sciences) building, and Russ. North side is closer to Grubbs, Heckert-Wells, the student center (so I think), McPherson (nursing), the Axe Library, and of course, the Weede (our Rec center till the new one opens next fall, not what the majority of you guys are thinking!!). I basically think that it's all about your major. If I were an English major, I'd be over on North campus because it'd be closer for me in the mornings. I also roll out of bed kinda late. Haha, I'm not going to lie, I got up at 10:50 today for my 11:00 class. It was amazing. not to mention not that uncommon for college students.

Student Ambassador selections are coming up. I'm actually on the selection committee so I'll be working with the people applying. I think that it'll be fun. I love ambassadors. Seriously? It's awesome to be able to put my wonderful ability of talking to use in a good way. I learn about the university and talk to prospective students at the same time!

The summer schedule comes out tomorrow. I have to take summer classes (figures) so I get to figure out when they are offered and HOPEFULLY will also be able to do CARES. Pitt CARES (Campus Advisement, Registration, and Enrollment Services) is during the summer where new incoming students start getting acclimated to the university. I love helping out because once again, I get to talk to people and also get to put on silly skits for people which usually end up not getting a laugh from anyone other than the other CARES leaders because we all have silly memories of practice or previous times performing. So, if you're reading this and you see us perform, laugh. it'll make us feel better. =)

Ok, well I'm off to check the major tool of procrastination for a college student, Facebook.

Later Loves!!
