For the second year, I have had the opportunity to be an honor marshal at the Lakeland College commencement. With this title comes the responsibility of assisting with the graduation ceremony in whatever capacity needed. These responsibilities include prepping graduates, assisting at baccalaureate, and handing...

The most awaited week of the semester (?!) Nah.... But the thing is I have mixed feelings towards finals. On one hand, finals mean that you are done with one semester of work, just in time when you are getting sick and tired of going to the same classes. On the other hand, you have 5 finals to take and you have made new friends in these classes and don't want to start over...

I don't actually have any exams, but I do have several papers and projects to turn in. On Friday, we held the End of the Year Bash, which was supposed to be outside. The weather had different plans. However, torrential downpours and myriads of lightning strikes were unable to thwart the plans of the...

All I've been doing lately is writing...for EVERYTHING! Don't get me wrong, I love writing, but sometimes I just want a little break. I know that as an English major it's the nature of the beast, but I'm ready for a vacation. I've been writing about Harry Potter, The Great Gatsby, Walt Whitman, educational psychology, a 600...

The event, a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, was hosted by a new student organization on LC's campus- Colleges Against Cancer. To participate in Relay, students could sign up as a team or as individuals. Most students entered as teams. The goal of the event is for each team to have at...

It was one of those first weekends in Spring when we had not seen rain (or snow!). Also, it was the weekend of Lakeland's first Relay For Life. You know how you always have that feeling of something not going right when you are planning such a big event for the first time? The entire event was...

For me I will be done by tomorrow because if you are a senior you get to take your finals early so they can get your grades in by graduation. So I am excited to not have anything to do for a whole week and half before graduation. This weekend is the end of the year bash it should be a lot of fun also we...

Projects are due, there are finals to study for and summer jobs to look for. For the seniors that are graduating I wish them the best and hope that Lakeland and prepared them for life in the "real world". People always use that phrase the real world. When to be honest most colleges...

It seems like only yesterday it happened and it doesn't seem like a whole year ago. It just shows how fast time flies and the things that happen one day will be forgotten or barely remembered years later. My prayers still go out to the families of those who lost loved...

When something major happens, the fact that life goes on as usual for everyone around you is very frustrating. Everytime I heard someone complain about something petty, I had to fight the urge to grab them by the shoulders and give them a shake. Every smile I saw and each laugh I heard made me more saddened... I... Tue, 15 Apr 2008 21:35:34 CST http://www.lakeland.edu/blog/home.asp?view=662&blogid=53
