Today, I visited the student organization fair. To be honest, it was a bit overwhelming. There was just soo much going on and soo much to see; but I managed to find my way over to some tables that I think may hold some good opportunities for me.
Since I am a poli sci major, I'd really like to get involved in some type of Student Government. So I'm thinking the Freshman Council seems like a good way to get involved. Also, today at the fair, I stopped by the College Republicans. I signed up for their email list. They had a meeting at 7:30 tonight, and I really wanted to go, but I had class until 8 tonight. So that was a bummer. But hopefully I can hit up the next one.
Also, I signed up for information about being an Orientation Leader. This summer, when I was going through orientation myself, I thought that it actually looked like something I might want to do. I was a freshman mentor in high school, so being an orientation leader wouldn't be too far of a stretch from that. The only hesitation I have about the whole thing is that I would have to spend summer here. And I really like Tennessee; I'm probably going to want to go home. So it might have to wait until next summer once I'm not so determined to go home.
As for hobbies, I don't actually have any skilled type hobbies. I mostly enjoy reading, shopping, watching movies, and being with my friends. I hate being by myself a majority of the time. I tend to surround myself with people throughout my day, intentionally or unintentionally. I constantly talk, so its nice to have someone around to listen. Otherwise, I'm just that crazy girl that talks to herself. Honestly though, that wouldn't really bother me all that much. I don't typically care much about that kind of stuff. Beside my basic girl hobbies, I LOVE politics. I am such a nerd about it, but I seriously could debate things for forever. I used to give my friends mini-lectures about each candidate during the presidential election. I'm pretty sure they hated me. But I didn't care. They would make me stop, but I kept lecturing anyway. I'm resilient.
I'm excited to see what other opportunities USC holds for me and determined to discover the secrets I haven't uncovered just yet :)
