Living in California is amazing….the breathtaking views that I can see out my window as I wake up are astonishing. What campus has apartments that overlook Mission Bay? Pretty hot huh? However as glamorous are our housing accommodations, it doesn’t help if you lock yourself out.
Not even a week on campus and I locked myself [...]

Doing the weekly schedule was a challenge because certain individuals on our staff couldn’t differentiate between “days the can’t work” and “days they didn’t want to work”.

Six hour drive to Tallahassee feels like 24 hours. I guess it didn’t help much that I was awake most of the evening. Last night I took Erica to the Miami airport. We left at 5:30pm and didn’t end up getting to Miami until 7:45pm. On the way home I didn’t think I would have [...]

Over Winter Break I was informed about an opportunity to participate in an internship during the summer. When I found out about it, the deadline had already past.

So my responsibility as Associate Director of Business Administration for SAACURH is to arrange all transportation for all the other board members.

Whitney was traveling from Atlanta to Fort [...]
