University Freebies

When I came back to get my degree, I loved going to all the events on campus and learning about new ideas and skills. However, once I graduated, I got caught up in the work world and left all of the events behind.

Fortunately, one of my good friends, took me to see a piano concert at the local university for my birthday.  I had forgotten what a great resource this was.  I picked up an upcoming schedule of events on my way out. WoW! I was amazed at all the happenings- lectures, recitals, concerts, movies...

It was wonderful.  I have already put several on my calendar.

ETSU

• Daily Events

Milligan

Tusculum

Don't put your head in the sand. Get out and try something new!!

Building Community

Well, now that I am not running around as much, I am taking advantages of other opportunities. I went to a knitting group meeting last night and met some wonderful people. One person even mentioned ETSU. I forgot about all the free things that universities offer to their students and community. I will have to look into that. Usually there is always I free movie or concert of some type. I need to "use what I have".
I am almost finished with my knitted socks and will need some help trying to put the toe part on. Also I have almost finished my aunt's birthday present. I am realizing that I see the benefits of the consistency premise. I also found a new motto for the year. I'd been trying to decide on something for 2009 and could only come up with Feeling Fine in 2009 which in my opinion is rather pitiful. But it finally hit me, 2009 is my year to shine!!! OK, Ipsen it isn't but at least it is something.
Well, gotta go.
