Though the adjustment has been slow, I am starting to get back into school mode. Luckily, I had some fun events to balance out my workload. The English Society had it's annual "meet and greet" on Tuesday. New and returning students got acquainted, and several professors came as well. Right now, I am trying to find a day that would work for monthly meetings. I also visited the workshop class (with whom I helped out over Orientation weekend) and talked about the writing center. Friday evening I went to a pizza party for FISH, the fellowship I just started attending. I enjoyed free food and good conversation. Saturday night I went out on a date with one of my guy friends. We went to a fish restaurant and came back to campus where we got gelato and hung out with his housemates.
Today I am interviewing to be a NUCL intern. For those of you who do not remember, NUCL (Northwest Undergraduate Conference on Literature) takes place in March and allows students from several Oregon universities to present their papers. Last year I was a panel chair, which means that I introduced the students presenting their papers and initiated discussion. While I applied to be an intern last year, I did not get the position (most likely due to being a sophomore and my lack of NUCL experience). Keep your fingers crossed for this year!
The year is just starting to get busier. Therefore, I must conclude and put those final touches on my literacy narrative.
