What's happened since we last spoke:
1. I went on my first high school visit. Another counselor ran the visit, but I added my info here and there.
2. I went to Articulation (guidance and admission counselors meet and get information) at BGSU. It was interesting to hear representatives talk about private and public colleges.
3. I went to my first college fair with a counselor and another one by myself. I honestly thought I would be more nervous on the road with these visits, but so far I've been fine. I guess Public Speaking with Linda Davis really paid off. Blue is for you! The college fair by myself went fabulous. I had lots of students asking about Otterbein. And we all know what that means, more PNMs (potential new members)! YAY!
Okay, yes. I do have an unhealthy obsession with finding new members for owls. But can you blame me? It's probably the most fun I've ever continuously had! Obviously I love Sigma Alpha Tau and owls, but mainly I want to throw out to GO GREEK! I love Owls and I rep it hard! But Greek Life is honesly one of the best things you can do to easily get involved on campus. It's a great way to meet new people, network, do community service, and receive scholarships. Okay, well that's my schpeel. But really GOOOO GREEEEK! DO IT!
So back to my life and the real world. Well, speak of The Real World...the season finale was on last night...ugh. I wish it was on continuously because I love it, love it, love it. And I really really really really really want to be on it. Like really bad. It would probably help if I made a submission tape. : )
Okay...real life. Well, I'm living the admission field. It has been pretty amazing helping students. It's the first time in my life I feel like I could make a career out of this and feel like I'm legitimately helping others. Best feeling in the world. I could do without the driving and early mornings, but that's nothing compared to the end result. Also, I'm missing my owl girls. I hate missing meetings, but I'll be at the next two...no worries. I am just trying to be a sponge and absorb any and all knowledge about the admission process.
