I found this group (Bloganistas) on Flickr through a fellow blogger, here. I loved it, because I enjoy seeing all of the outfits and the scarfs. Oh, the scarfs! I see so many, and I love them. I’m not sure that I’ll be able to do it weekly, but I definitely use it for inspiration on what to wear. Here is what I was wearing for the job fair today before it was canceled due to the snow storm.
I normally don’t do resolutions, but I do always have goals for the year or things that I intend to complete. So here they are in all their glory, and I organized them by my most popular topics.
SCHOOL:
HOUSE:
BUSINESS:
OTHER GOALS:
Whew! That about covers it. I think all are reasonable, and they’re all things I was planning to do since about November.
I couldn’t be more relieved! Fall quarter always seems to drag a bit, but you have the entire Christmas break to look forward to! Winter is freezing outside, so being cooped inside doing schoolwork isn’t that bad. Then spring quarter rolls around. By the end of it flowers are blooming, and the weather is nice enough to sit outside. Clubs and organizations are having cookouts to raise money, and it’s not the easiest environment to keep on studying.
It’s finished though! Here’s to a weekend of semi-relaxing because on Monday I open up shop!
One of the fantastic opportunities available to female students (males are included, too, though!) is the Society of Women Engineers. This organization is a national organization with chapters available in most all universities. From the chapter I’m with:
SWE is a non-profit educational service organization dedicated to making known the need for women engineers and encouraging young women to consider an engineering education.
One of the great things that many chapters do is try to inform and recruit younger girls (usually starting from 3rd grade) on up to take math classes and motivate them to pursue a career in engineering.
Engineering is not for everyone, but if you notice your child does have a strong background in the math in sciences, please help to nurture that. If there’s a university nearby, see what programs (many of them free!) they offer children. If only I had known when I was younger, but at least now I know for my future children.
