Internship Panel

The Internship Panel was a great source of information. The lady that spoke at this panel helped me so much on how to search and find internships. She told us students that she is willing to help us if we ever want to find a job or an internship and she will look for us or give us reliable sources to search ourselves. I plan to have an internship next year so that is why I chose this panel, because I need to know the aspects of how to find an internship. She showed us some websites to visit that will help us find internships that are related to our majors and that are also around the Waverly area. For the past week or so, I have been trying to find an off campus job or internship that is related to my major because I want to have more experience with my major outside of the classroom. I am super excited to find an internship for next year and can't wait to start!

Financial Literacy Panel

On Wednesday October 23, I attended the Financial Literacy Panel in the W. The lady that spoke gave out a bunch of useful information. She talked to us students about Financial Planning, Creating a Budget, and Avoiding Identity Theft, and a ton more modules. She gave us tips on what to do and what not to do. She also gave us a website to visit if we ever need help. I have not checked out the website yet but I plan on checking it out sometime! I know for a fact the all of the information she gave out will help me in the future. While being in college and starting a new life is hard work, I need to be aware of my financial concerns. This website will help me improve my financial needs and also inform me more on my upcoming life after I graduate from college.

Birthday with the Boyfriend

Yesterday, October 25, was my boyfriends birthday. He turned 23 years old and I got to spend the whole day with him. I have missed him so much and we were so happy to see each other. He loved his presents I gave him. I got him a bears beanie, a bears t-shirt, a bears bag, his favorite candy bar, a bag of hugs and a bag of kisses, and a new wallet with a picture of me in it. His favorite football team is the bears if you couldn't tell. I made him breakfast in bed and for lunch I took him out to Buffalo Wild Wings and then we walked around the River Hills Mall in Mankato, Minnesota. After shopping and walking around, we decided to go see a movie. We watched the new movie called "Bad Grandpa" in the theater at the mall. It was a hilarious movie and we loved every minute of it. After the movie was over, we went out to eat at Chipotle. I have never eaten at this place before but Edward was craving Mexican food so I thought I would try it. It was pretty good considering I didn't know what to order for my first time! Once we got done eating supper, we noticed a new little shop in the college town called "Insomnia Cookies". We looked at each other and thought the same exact thing: "YUM!". So we went inside and they had so many cookies to choose from! We were so excited and couldn't choose on which ones we wanted so we bought one of each! They were fresh out of the oven too! They were so delicious, I want more! After eating some of our amazingly delicious cookies, we left Mankato to come back home to Fairmont so Edward could meet my grandparents, my aunt, my uncle, and my cousins. He seems pretty nervous but still excited to meet more of my family. Everyone is coming out to my house tonight for pizza and cookies and to see me and meet Edward. I am pretty excited for my family to meet Edward. We have been dating for a month and 11 days now.
