Hey everyone! I haven’t been able to write much. But, I’m taking time off from studying for my econ101 mid term to write this! We all need our study breaks! They’re important!
Well, let’s see what’s been going on…
Co-Op
I’ve just begun the co-op process. I’ve began my PD1 and applying to jobs on Jobmine. So far, so good. Nothing overly difficult and it seems that everything is in good order. I’ll write more as time goes on.
DECA
This past weekend I was in Toronto for the DECA U provincials. It was a lot of fun. Queens and Western basically won the competition in almost every category, but Waterloo did win some things! Yay! We arrived on the friday, checked into the hotel, went to the opening ceremonies, wrote the written part of the competition, and then UW DECA went out to eat! On the Saturday, there was the case competition. I was in Apparal and Accessories, as well as Human Resource Management. On the Saturday night, we had our DECA social at a night club in Toronto. It was a lot of fun. On the Sunday, we woke up, checked out of the hotel, and I waited for my parents to pick me up and drive me back to Waterloo. Over all, I met new people and made some new friends (we now talk via Facebook/MSN).
2nd Term
Well, second term has begun, and it’s not as scary as last term. I mean, at least this term I can breathe… okay, not really! haha But still. I’m familiar with the University and the people and I now know how serious I have to take school. So when you get here, work hard right away!
I’ll be around on Campus Day (March 13th) if any of you need me, just find me! I wish all of you in highschool good luck on your exams and have a great 2nd semester!
