The Fab Four

All my life I have been the type of person to get the job done. In high school I wan't really popular and never actually won (except once) my positions in an organization, but the teachers would always make something up so that I would still help. It is just my personality that I can't let something not get done and get it done right.

So this is my first semester not working at the alumni association with the student membership program since my freshmen year. It has become my second family and the program has had such a big part in my life for three years. There are four student that work for the program and the last group of us were the Fab Four (pictured). We had many, many memorable moments both at work and out our many adventures. Though it hasn't always been easy, I wouldn't trade that time.

The first event of the year is Cool Off Carolina, and unlike the events throughout the rest of the year, it is open to all Carolina students and for the past two years has been at the Strom pool. In the past it was in the center of campus, but it didn't offer the refreshing pool and atmosphere that the Strom has. I volunteered to help because, well I wouldn't miss it, and when I got there about 20 minutes before it was supposed to start, it wasn't near ready. It is weird because three of the four new officers have never worked this event before along with the graduate assistant. The last events office put the event from 11-2 instead of 1-3, so when I left there wasn't a huge crowd. The set up was a little off and none of the ad board really knew what they were doing. It is hard to let it go because it was so much a part of my life for so long, but at the same time it isn't my problem any more either. Ahhh!

On a more exciting note, I am beginning an internship at the SC Arts Commission tomorrow and it is the first day for my University 101 class.
