The Plan.

Ok, so I know this is far in advance however when you're an RA you have to think of the next year way in advance. Key reason: applications to return as an RA are due the first week of Spring Semester. Yeah, early right?

Well, I had an epiphany today on my way back from Cost Accounting. I had been thinking a lot about if I wanted to be an RA next year or not. I knew I wanted to be at ROTH next year because I like it a lot. So, my decision is to not be an RA next year. I will apply to live at ROTH and hopefully sweet talk Lisa into letting me have my own room (PLEASE!?!?!). Then, I will apply for a Desk Assistant position out there. I will continue to be involved in NRHH next year. I have submitted myself for nomination as Vice President of the UNI Accounting Club for 2009. I also plan to apply for SAA (Student Admissions Ambassador); they give the tours to new students and are a part of the Admissions office on campus. I also may have a little, non-constant job that I can't say right now due to the fact that I haven't been given permission to say it. (Confusing...I know!)

Surprisingly, I am really calm about this decision. I believe it will help with my stress level, I will be able to take a full load of classes and focus on them more. I will also be able to spend more time with Josh and not have to worry about "Oh, well I'm on call that night so...." I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as an RA. I will probably cry when I leave, however I believe it will be best. AND I'll be able to end it on a good note. If I wouldn't have returned for this year, I would have ended it on a sour note, but after this year...I will have some amazing memories to last my whole life and some amazing friends to remember them with!

Now, I register for classes tomorrow morning.
I am registering for:
Intermediate Accounting II (major class)
Accounting Information Systems (major class)
Organizational Management (business core class)
Operations Management (business core class)
Organizational Psychology (certificate class)

which reminds me to add that...I am adding a certificate to my major; Industrial and Organizational Psychology

As I continue to ramble, here is a link to one thing that I will be creating while I am here over Thanksgiving:

3D Paper Snowflake


I will also be making a blanket...for someone's birthday. but sshhhh!!! I haven't even hinted at it which is pretty incredible for me! Gators on one side and Hawkeyes on the other!

Ok, that's it for now! I'll leave you with some pictures Josh and I took for our 5 year anniversary.
