Go Blue, Go PINK!

The Victoria's Secret PINK Active Launch Party Rocked!

Oct 07, 2016

The saying, "On Wednesdays we wear PINK" took on a whole new meaning this past Wednesday night. From 7-9 pm at the Gamma Phi Beta house at the University of Michigan Campus Reps for Victoria's Secret PINK, Taylor Bradburn and Caitlin LeRoux, hosted the PINK Active Launch party.

The night was filled with yoga, fun, and lots of giveaways. Three Yoga instructors from the Michigan Yoga Club, Noelle Polakowski, Mariah Silverstein, and Carly Noah,kept the girls sweating as they twisted and stretched into some intense positions. The University of Michigan Her Campus team was also at the event promoting their own organization and giving away some awesome prizes.

Almost every girl that attended the event left with some sort of freebie. Senior Kerri Clifford attended the event and was one of those lucky winners! When asked about her time at the event she stated, "I had an exam that night right after my session of yoga. It was so nice finding my zen before I went and took my Econ Exam. For anyone who has every taken Econ you know that the exams are anything but tranquil." She continued, "I was psyched to find out that I won a sports bra. I received a text right when I got out of the exam letting me know I had won. So I may not have taken the W on the exam but I definitely took a W at PINK."

The event also had a student from the Screen, Arts, and Culture department, Marie Monark, filming all the action. She explained, "The turn out for this event was so great! I came in to help film but left hoping I would end up with a few PINK items myself! It was all so cool."

The energy in the room was contagious and empowering. The women in attendance were all such confident and determined people that it would be hard to leave without a smile on ones face.

Junior Lauren Siegel joined in on the fun as well stating, " I think the environment was super fun and had a nice balance of activity and just hanging out. The yoga was a nice touch for a break during our hectic schedule and gave a nice reminder of what pink stands for." Siegel and her friend, Natalie Zimmerman, were the winners of the Grand Prize and took home a full outfit, gym bag, water bottle, headband, and VS Gift card!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
