FIVE TIMES AUGUST! March 29, 2009

Posted by Marina in : Fun Events , add a comment

Yes, I met Brad, the man behind the one man show,

Five Times August. 

And yes, he put on the most amazing acoustic show I have ever seen.  I feel so lucky just to have met him for the five seconds it took him to personally autograph my new album (thank you tylor for providing me with the Cd, I love you).  Although only a small intimate crowd was present at the show, Brad connected with us and turned into a small intimate rockin’ FUN show!  Needless to say, I am totally in love with his music.  So if you missed out, it is TOTALLY your loss!!  Thank you MAP for brining FTA to Stevenson!  You can still check him out on Itunes! :o )

So as many of you have already seen, the FACEBOOK page for Stevenson University Dining Servicees has terminated the use of boxes to display the weekly menus.  And I hate never knowing what they’re having in Rockland… SO… follow this website and you too can see the daily menu :o )

Would You Like Some… March 26, 2009

Posted by Marina in : General , add a comment

Chai? How about a delicious Smoothie? Or wait no – you’re a Mocha Blast kind of person?  MMM, but don’t rule out the Coffee!

(or the Hot Chocolate).

If you’re in the mood for any of the items mentioned above – Head over to Jazzman’s!  I know you’re probably wondering why I am writing this, but yesterday I had a new experience – I tried the hot chai.  AND WOW WAS IT GOOD!  It’s my new favorite :o ).  I think it’s good to experiment with different types of drinks.  Tea is better for you than coffee and hotter than a smoothie… just less fruity.  It’s a fabulous drink and I recommend it to ANYONE.  It’s awesome how people can go in and get these drinks from their meal plan!  I know I know, amazing.  They also have various food items for purchase (with flex dollars) just in case you can’t get to the store! :o )  A+ Jazzman’s!

 (ALSO, DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE MR. AND MS. SU CONTEST TOMORROW NIGHT! YOU COULD WALK AWAY WITH A LAPTOP!!!!)

The NEIGH-borhood!! March 24, 2009

WELCOME TO THE NEIGH-BORHOOD!

A place for incoming accepted students to connect with one another.

I think this is one of the coolest things SU has ever done concerning the internet (beside’s my FABULOUS blog)!  These accepted students have access to one another through means of having a personal profile where they can add information and even photos.  It’s like SU’s personal Myspace Community (only better).  So for all of you who were invited, let me know how it is!  Why couldn’t they have cool stuff like this when I was accepted? 

SU JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!

Meet Spot :o) March 23, 2009

Posted by Marina in : Fun Events, General , add a comment

This is my new fish, Spot :o )

Spot is the result of two spastic teenagers walking into a pet store.  You see, I really wanted a robohamster.  They are amazingly cute and fluffy but against dorm policies.  So Spot was the perfect addition to this big ol’ room to myself.  You ask, why is his name Spot?  Well although you can’t see it, he has a black spot on his right fin :o )  I love him.  Everyone thinks he is the most adorable goldfish ever.  However, he isn’t one of those 25 cent goldfishes, he’s a special breed.  Yeah, awesome, I know.

In his .5 gallon glass bowl, he has greenish blue marbled rocks and has a little house built like a mushy sand castle with flip-flop decor’.  It’s kind of sad that I spoil a fish – I refused to buy him pellets because he is so small, so I bought him GOURMET food flakes.  :o )  Yes, I’m serious.  But I felt like it was important to give him the best because I did take him out of his home, which makes me sad.

If you plan on buying your own fish for your dorm, remember that you cannot have a tank exceeding 10 gallons.  Also, make sure to properly take care of your fish.  Water conditioner is necessary to keep your new friend alive, and of course food!  A loving nurturing home doesn’t hurt either.  Buying little things to put in the bowl helps the fish have a little excitement.  So go on and get your own!

 

WOW Career Fair! March 18, 2009

Posted by Marina in : Informational Events , add a comment

Tonight, Career HQ held the World of Work Career Fair.

Over 30 different employers were represented here at Stevenson University from 4:00 – 6:00 upstairs in the Rockland Banquet Room.  Numerous hard working students, part of the Career Ambassadors, were also at this event; trying to make it special and set it apart from the rest. 

The purpose of the career fair was to provide an opportunity for current students to get that first hand experience of meeting various employers while trying to find that first real job for after college.  My hopes are that everyone came out getting exactly what they needed :O)

Mark STEVENS at STEVENSon! March 17, 2009

Posted by Marina in : Fun Events , add a comment

Every one loves a little bit of free music!!!  Missed it?  YouTube has everything!

Soultry and soothing, Mark Stevens wooed the crowd last night at Pandini’s with his light style.  It is always so much fun watching people perform here at Stevenson.  I remember my first performance was outside of Pandinis and I LOVED IT!!

So – you’ve got nothing to do?  Or wait, you’re sick of studying?  Go do something on campus!  It’s such a shame when people complain there’s nothing to do – read your email! :o )
