I know I have not been very diligent with my posts lately... so still waiting for my acceptance letter to come in but I have made head way in other things. I am finally caught up on all my courses and requirements before I leave, that way when I get back I don't have to take any more courses ( hopefully).
I am taking an art history class for the intercession session and a labour studies course for the summer. It feels good to go back to school for a bit, and exercise my mind. Other than this I have been working, seeing my friends, and and of course trying to get all my business in order before I leave.
I do have to mention that I have been watching all the World Cup Fifa 2010 soccer games haha. We shall see who wins.

The importance of volunteering
So after a few works of working I finally found some time to do some volunteering. At the University we have our head start program which offers an easy transition to high school students entering the university world.
I have been volunteering with the SOS ( students orienting students) program for the last two years and this year marked my third and possibly last year of the head start program since I will still be in the UK while the program is running but I will try to make an appearance.
I actually forgot what a warm feeling you get when you volunteer and help not just parents but students as well. It is such a great opportunity and you get to meet so many new people. Volunteering has helped shaped me so much as a person and I can't stress enough how important it is to volunteer. Well heres to another week!
