Deals of the Day

I'm definitely a broke college kid, so when I find a deal - I'm as happy as a sea monkey.

Here's a few super e-commerce sites I bookmark and check daily. Sometimes if you're lucky, you can find some awesomeee dealios.

GREAT NEWS!

#1. We met our Kaplan goal! Kaplan was very impressed with our turnout at this Saturday's practice test -- thank you to everyone who helped spread the word! We have earned a free Kaplan test certificate, which will be a great fundraiser. (Let me know if you or a friend are interested in a Kaplan test prep course.)

#2. We've officially filled all of our senior portraits appointments! Our photo studio has even opened up April dates, but seniors are still welcome to walk-in this week (they just might have to wait for an appointment -- mornings and late afternoons are the least busy).

YAY.

awkward!

So, I found a shopping basket in our new fourth floor office. I immediately thought of its usefulness, how we could use it for early-morning flyering (plug: Wednesday, 7:30-9am!). I asked Ann Marie if she needed it, and she said we were welcome to take it.

Fast forward to Saturday morning, when I filled it with flyers, staplers and chalk to do some light flyering... I took the elevator to the second floor of MLK to cut through the Student Store, like I always do... except as soon as I walked in, I realized the basket is from the Student Store!!! Needless to say, the employees all stared at me like I was crazy as I entered, then exited, with one of their baskets... Maybe I'll anonymously return it?!? Or just avoid the store, haha.

spring.social.silliness.

Thanks for a great staff social, everyone! We had pizza, candy, photos wars and a competitive game of Time's Up (actually, Lydia & Amy clobbered us). I'm glad y'all made it :D

Since there is that upcoming social...

I think I'll post a photo from our social in the fall...when it was cloudy and kind of cold, but fun nonetheless. =)
