What it's like to be involved?

Busy, yes, but I LOVE IT!

What it's like to be involved?
estrattonbailey & wearesculpt

So this week I was asked why I am so involved. At first I didn't know how to respond and then I didn't know how to get them to understand what I meant.

I love being involved. I love how much I get to do. I, like anyone, can get overwhelmed and it happens often, but I love being involved.

Here is my week...

Monday, Wednesday, and Friday: I'm in class back to back from 11:15 to 2:20

Tuesday and Thursday: I'm in class from 9:20 to 12:35

And rehearsal every school night from 6-9.

On top of this I'm trying to get a job, keep up here on Odyssey and get my life in order for auditions.

Like I said I love being involved.

I'm trying to start a film club which is stressful when everyone in it has work or they are in rehearsal with you and barely have time to eat too.

At the beginning of the year I was an RA here and a lot of my coworkers said they applied to feel more involved. For me that wasn't why I applied. I applied to help other students feel more involved. And now one of my former residents is a hall council member and all of them are very active in school. Which makes me very proud.

From the very first week I feel as if I've been going non-stop. Which in a way is great and in another isn't. I get tired easily and running every minute makes life a little crazy.

But grab on because this year isn't even half over yet!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
