AHHHHH! Pairings!
“It’s only when we can work with something that brings out our strengths that we’re of any real use.”
― Henning Mankell, The Fifth Woman
This week we finally found out our pairings for next fall and.....(drumroll please!) I am paired with Sir Tyler Main! The fall should be awesome and our mentees will for sure get a full perspective on journalism (we may start a newspaper out of our section, no big deal.) The puzzle for the reveal was really clever and cute! I think we're all matched up really well! The discussion on Facebook was also pretty grand!
Wednesday's class also featured the revealing of our final product for DST and it turned out great! Thanks everyone for all the hard work you put in!
The previous peer mentor panel was a really informative discussion. I learned a lot about what to expect (ANYTHING) and how I can prepare myself! It was great to have their perspective! It was great to be able to ask them questions and see how they all still connected with one another!
The retreat yesterday was awesome--thanks again to Allie for hosting all of us! P.s.--you have the most adorable dog ever! It was great to be able to relax outside with everyone in the beautiful weather! It was a really laid back retreat and we all got to relax and bond--that's really important going into the summer....plus, you know, the two truths and a lie game was kind of a bombshell...so yeah. :)
I'm excited for the details of the fall retreat to take shape and for the summer read!
See you all in class Wednesday (or tomorrow night at van training!)

If I'm Sir Tyler then it is only fitting if you are Madame Coreen. I can't wait for the fall, I can already tell it is going to be fun. I hope you are ready to win the overall competition at the Hixson retreat in the fall...because I play for keeps! haha
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence that our two journalism majors got paired together, I didn't even think about that! I definitely agree that the retreat on Sunday was awesome - hands down the best one of the semester! I just hope this beautiful weather sticks around... Mother Nature really needs to make up her mind!
ReplyDeleteOh and in response to Tyler's comment... BRING IT ON.
