My life has consisted of numerous hours of studying with mid-terms just around the corner. On top of that one of my communication teachers is the newspaper adviser, so whenever she needs help with stories assignments she offers them to students in my class. I've taken on 3. Last weeks was on Diversity Week and made the front page, this coming week was on peoples prospective of christmas and skipping over Thanksgiving, an opinion piece, and next week I will have a story on students favorite holiday treats and traditions. So I've been busy with the newspaper as well as classes.
That same teacher is offering scholarships for next semester for the newspaper staff. So I'm currently putting together a resume and portfolio of my photography hoping for a position as a staff photographer preferably sports photographer. I believe its pretty strong right now with letters of recommendations from both my intership with the standard examiner and my old photo teacher as well as my NCAA basketball pictures I took for the standard. Hopefully I'll get the scholarship.. CROSS YOUR FINGERS!
Being a part of; Polynesian Club, Service Club, The Crew, and the L.D.S.S.A (Latter Day Saint Student Association) I was able to be a part of Dixie State's biggest service project of the year. We went to Tuachan to pick up trash and decorate it with thousands of christmas lights. It was one of the funnest service projects at the coolest place... even though it was freezing.
I also last night went on one of the funnest double dates with Shannon. She got asked by this cutie she's been checking out, Zant, and gave me thirty minutes to find a date so I took my good friend Andy. We went to Vegas and rode the rollercoaster on top of the Stratosphere... so scary! Then went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and got to drive a Hummer H3!!
And that's pretty much how my life has been this last week. So enjoy the pictures. Oh ya and i forgot to put up halloween pictures so i included one of those as well. As well as a picture I took from the dorms of the amazing sunset.... and a picture of me voting for mom.
HIGH FIVES FOR SERVICE!
VEGAS... THE VIEW FROM THE VIEWING DOCK.. THEN YOU GO UP TEN MORE FLOORS TO THE ROLLERCOASTER THEN YOU GO UP 12 STORIES TO THE VERY VERY TOP!!!
