First Month of College = Complete!

It's been a month since I moved into MU and I'm surprised at how much I've already accomplished! One thing that I really love about being here is that I'm never bored. My hall has so many activities throughout the week that I really can't ever sit still long enough to feel bored. Well, I guess I get bored while doing homework, but it's good to know I can always take a break and go do something fun for a bit before returning to my work. Here are a few examples of some fun activities my hall has had lately...

 

Thursday night we decorated coffee mugs with Sharpies! But instead of baking them, the RA is going to use spray Mod Podge. I'm really curious as to how they will turn out. She told us we would have to hand wash them, which makes sense, but I'm not sure if I would even drink out of a mug sprayed with Mod Podge. Is it safe? If not, it will be the perfect pencil cup!

 

 

Along with the coffee mugs, another RA hosted an activity at the same time where we made cute flower type balls out of tissue paper! After some pinterest searching, I found the exact directions we used on this blog. They were super easy and fun to make! I already have mine hanging around my bed. The purple really goes with my room!

 

 

Friday night my RA had a small activity where we wrote our dreams down on a big poster board labeled 'Hobbs Dreams' (Hobbs is the name of my hall, by the way). You could write down any dream or goal that you had. I chose to stick with my main goal in life, which is to impact the lives of children when I am a teacher. It was a small activity, but there was pizza! Almost every activity in the hall has food so we never go hungry!

 

So far everything about MU is great! I'll be sure to continue updating on here about my college life, especially the fun activities I participate in that allows me to show my creativity and crafty-ness!
