Collegiate 100 6th Annual Pre Derby Gala

Hello beautiful people! Hope your week is going well, and you had a great weekend. This week I’m going to talk about my RSO, Collegiate 100, 6th annual Pre Derby Gala. This year the event is taking place at the PNC Club in Papa Johns Stadium at 8pm. It’s only one week left of classes, so I’m sure this Gala will be filled with energetic people. Collegiate 100 has brought exquisite and over the top Galas to the Univeristy of Louisville campus for the past six years. Collegiate 100 has had Frankie Beverly and maze, 112, J. Holiday to name a few performers in the past. I’m really excited this year because I’m ahead of the Gala committee and been planning this event for over two months. I think everything will fall in place and will be one of the most successful Galas we ever had. Also at our Pre Derby Gala we announce the next Miss Collegiate and reward her with a crown, sash, bouquet of roses, and a scholarship of $300. Miss Collegiate will serve the next school year and help out with events, community service, programming and more. If your interested in attending our Gala this year, tickets are only ten dollars and we’ll be in the SAC all week selling them. It will definitely be a night to remember!

Tamale, Ghana

Hello fellow bloggers and friends! I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready for a productive and great week ahead. Well I received a phone call from Sister Cities of Louisville today to set up a interview for a study aboard trip I applied for a month ago. Tamale, Ghana is the location I choose and I could not be anymore happier. I have always dreamed of going to Africa and hopefully it can become reality. Sister Cities of Louisville mission is to create opportunities for Louisville citizens and citizens of Sister Cities to work together in creating international community partnerships. Also to stimulate exchanges and projects in the areas of professional economic development, education, community initiatives, arts and culture, medicine, tourism, and technology. I plan to serve my project in education and maybe teach English to young Ghanian males. Everything is pretty much still up in the air and still need to make it past my interview stage, so I will keep you all posted on the details. Keep me in your prayers! Peace. ✌

Spring Break is Approaching!!!

Hello beautiful people!!! I hope everyone had a excellent weekend and week. This weeks topic will be on spring break. Here at the University of Louisville we are in week 8 which means spring break is vastly approaching. My partners Mike, Joey, and I made a video on spring break were weinterviewed peers on their plans for spring break 2012. We asked our interviewees how are they funding spring break, where are they going, past experiences on spring break, and what advice do they have for fellow spring breakers. We had great and positive feedback from everyone we interviewed and from fellow classmates when we aired our video. In my four years in college I only participated in one spring break sophomore year when I went on a cruise to the Bahamas. I went with some of my fellow RA co-workers and had a unbelievable great time. Now I want to hear from you, leave me a comment and let me know about some of your past experiences on spring break. Take care fellow blogggers and have a blessed and productive week. Peace. ✌

Collegiate 100 Week 2012

Hello again. I hope everyone had a great Super Bowl weekend, Go Giants! Well this weeks post will be dedicated to a recognized student organization I am apart of and what’s currently going on. Collegiate 100 is a community service organization which is predominantly for African American males focused on giving back to the community in various ways. We were founded on University of Louisville campus Spring 2004 by 17 collegiate men with four main principles: Mentoring, Education, Networking, and Economical Development. We volunteer at Brooklawn Child and Family center every other Saturday where we play physical activities with the kids as part of their therapy. We currently have over 40 members who are active leaders on campus and include former Mr. Cardinal, former SGA President, Homecoming Kings, SOSers, Resident Assistants, SGA representatives, Mentors, and the list can go on and on. We have a great reputation on campus, along with a great work ethic and successful programs/events. This week is Collegiate Week 2012 and we are hosting an abundance of events. Here’s a pic of the flyer for details. Please come out to any event this week on campus if you are available!
