Get To Know Us: Caroline Eaker

Remember those teachers that make you stand up and say things about yourself on the first day of class? Everyone sits in their desk, sweat dripping down your face , and you can just feel your face turning bright red. Then all of a sudden, it is your turn and every single bit of knowledge you had is gone, even remembering your name is impossible. Well, that was never me. Actually I am the complete opposite, I have always enjoyed having all eyes on me. This love for being the center of attention helped me decide that I wanted to go into broadcasting that then led me to chose journalism as my major, which helped me find my love for writing. Now that everyone knows the most important thing about me, let me tell you 15 facts about myself that made me the diva I am today.

1) I was born and raised in Augusta Ga (yes, I have been to The Masters)

2) I am in my third year at Georgia Southern studying journalism and PR.

3) I was a competitive gymnast from the age of 7 to 16 and I spent more hours at the gym then my actual home

4) I was on the GSU all girl cheer leading team for two years and also won two national championships while on this team.

5) I am now on the GSU equestrian team

6) My favorite movie is "Gone With The Wind"

7) I was the 2015 GSU homecoming Duchess

8)I am a member of Zeta Tau Alpha

9) I have a weird obsession with investigative podcasts. If you have not listened to Serial, you are seriously missing out.

10) I once competed in a bikini competition

11) My favorite book is anything written by Jodi Picoult or South Of Broad by Pat Conroy

12) I have a legit fear of bananas.

13) I am convinced I am adopted (i'm not) because I look absolutely nothing like anyone in my family.


14) I am friends with some of the greatest ( and best dressed) people in the world.


15) One time I was Tricia Miller from Orange is the New Black for Halloween.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
