Thanksgiving Break!!!!

I finally arrived home yesterday. I am ecstatic to be home. I get to see my friends from other colleges and my family that is back home for once. I got to sleep in my OWN bed yesterday that was great. It will be nice to go to our city's annual Christmas/Thanksgiving parade today. And Tommorow, the best day of all THANKSGIVING! It has been far too long since I have gotten the chance to taste my favorite dessert, sweet potato pie. At least I have came home and left Durham with the satisfaction that I have helped to successfully make a difference in a few families' life's for Thanksgiving. Along with the Freshman Class Council we collected 622 pounds of food to be donated to different families throughout the holiday season. We also collected funds to help feed a family for Thanksgiving. Not only was I apart of that can food drive, but in the Centennial Scholar's Program we also collected can foods for families throughout Durham with the help of the Durham Alumni Chapter of North Carolina Central University. Although it is Thanksgiving Break, It really isn't a true break. Even here at home during my relaxation period I'm finding that I still have to exercise time management, because I have loads of homework and studying to do for exams and I wish to enjoy some quality time with my friends and family.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Centennial Homecoming and Beyond

Homecoming was great! We won the actual Homecoming game 53-22. It was nice to see so many alumni. I attended the majority of the Homecoming events, I think I will begin a scrap book soon and place all of my ticket stubs in it. Today is "Chat With The Chancellor" so I will most definitely be there to voice my few concerns. My time in the Student Government Association has been great. I encourage everyone to get involved! Also I have been invited to participate in the Centennial Scholar's Program. I have accepted the invitation and it is a very good program. I am glad that I was selected to participate in it. Next week I'm participating in a talent show to recite a poem that I wrote Other than that the majority of my time is dedicated to studying for my final exams.
