The first actual Indy day

Now as I've expressed before, the first day of classes is one of my favorite and also one of my most stressful.
But for me, the first day of the Indy is my favorite.
So Indy practicum and KDUR are part of the communications major requirements, so eventually everyone has to take some Indy and some KDUR. And I love that because i get to meet everyone in the department even if they like it or not.

But on Tuesday class was canceled and so we missed our first day, which made me sad because long story short, I made a prezi, and ALL the editors collaborated. And then we couldn't use it because were on a very tight schedule and today we jumped straight into production. Which I understand why, but i'm still bummed we couldn't use it how I had hoped.

 But anyways, the first day of Indy!
That's the first day we get to see and meet all the bright and shiny new faces. Everyone is excited and ready to go. And all the editors hope we have good staffers. Which from my point of view it seems like we have a good team this semester. Everyone seems eager to learn and improve. And like before I get to meet new people, which i find to be extremely exciting. Plus I love what I do for the Indy and all the people in it I would consider friends. So really its a great class to not only get work done for and make something we are proud of, but as well as an area to make great friends.

I also have a mountain sports writing class with a very eccentric teacher. I'm excited to see how it goes!

Went to the gym again, and died a little bit. But not as bad. I feel sore but its a good sore. A change sore. Its not painful its enlightening. I've been so numb for a while and so actually feeling something and doing something with my life besides sitting on the couch forever feels like its a step in the right direction. Plus I have two amazing work out buddies that I go with and cheer me on. I love it thus far and I can feel myself getting stronger already.

If you haven't noticed, I like to be busy. I'm happier when I have things to do and I get them done. It seems weird but when i'm productive and I get everything on my list done, its like one of the best days ever!

Also i'm trying to think up ideas to raise $1,600 for 8 of  our editors to go to LA for a journalism conference in March. If you have any ideas whatsoever please comment or let me know. Any and all ideas would be helpful however we are not doing a bikini carwash. Sorry guys!
