Whoops–the busy life

Alright, I may have slacked off on posting lately.  I actually dreamt that I was keeping up with my posts, so I blame my overactive imagination for not posting in the last two weeks. But, as happens when you are a busy senior, things come up, and I have to prioritize. So a lot has […]

Playing Around with VR

During my tech bar hours, I was able to experience virtual reality.  I played in the Oasis of the book and now new movie called Ready Player One and a virtual reality game called Fantastical Imaginations.  I had a fun time while my senses were immersed in these virtual worlds. I have had one other experience […]

Sigma Tau Delta Convention–Day 4

Today was the last official day of convention and our more chill day. Once again just to mess with my sleep schedule, we woke up at 7 a.m. to make it to one of our group member’s presentation.  We all fought off our grogginess to listen to her panel of freedom in flight, which did […]

Sigma Tau Delta Convention–Day 3

Friday entailed getting up early, attending a longer than necessary business meeting, and a whole lot of sightseeing. I am not a morning person.  If I do not have to be up before 9:30 a.m., I am not going to wake up.  I can if need be, but I’d rather sleep in.  Today, one of […]

Sigma Tau Delta Convention–Day 2

Day 2: We survived another day of presenting, sight-seeing, and learning. As co-president of St. Norbert’s Sigma Tau Delta, it’s my job to figure out where the heck we are going each day, especially for food.  Today, I looked up nearby cafes and found Bakes Place.  The reviews were positive, and it was within walking distance, so […]

Sigma Tau Delta Convention–Day 1

I am currently in Cincinnati, Ohio for the Sigma Tau Delta 2018 Convention.  In case you don’t know, Sigma Tau Delta is the International English Honor Society.  Every year, they hold a convention where students and alumni of Sigma Tau Delta present critical essays, poetry, and short fiction in a four day event.  It’s really […]

Spring Break Feels

Spring Break occurred from March 10th to March 18th.  I packed my homework, telling myself I would get ahead and be productive.  I am missing school from March 21st to the 25th, so I planned to be ahead so I wouldn’t fall behind.  Despite good intentions, my break was not as productive as I had […]

Navigating the Word Press Dashboard

    When looking over your site, you decide to change things up–but lo and behold, you’re not logged in.  As soon as you log in and type in your information, you are taken to the wonderful world of your dashboard. What is your dashboard? Well, if you’re like me, you may at first completely […]

Searching for Internships, Click Here

Hunting for internships sucks. College students look forward and dread the search.  I have been looking off and on again for the past year.  Owning accounts on Linkedin, internships.com (through Chegg), Indeed.com, and Hire a Knight, I try to keep my options open. Currently, I have a pretty lax proofreading internship with Shadoe Publishing, which […]

Tech Bar Beginnings

Working for the Tech Bar is interesting and is teaching me new technologies, like WeVideo and Domains.  I am new to my school’s Tech Bar staff and so far am liking it.  Many fun, eclectic people work here, which is my kind of crowd. WeVideo My first Tech Bar task was to make a WeVideo […]
