I Wanna Put on My Boogie Shoes!

   So remember how a couple of weeks ago I wrote about how I had found roommates to live with next fall? (Jan. 22)  Well, this is now a no-go.  We were planning to live on campus in the Village, which is apartment style housing and I didn't think it would be much of a big deal to get in.  I received an email last Friday saying that I did not get Village housing.  One of the planned roommates did (but she already lives there this year), and the other two will still be waiting to find out until April or May if they got in (since they live in apartments currently it's different for them) and since they want to be RA's they'll most likely live on campus regardless of if they get in the village or not.  Leigh Ellen knows a person that I can room with... and I'm so happy that she's doing that for me, but I really want to live close to campus but I guess if I can't find any other way to live closer I'll be living there (across the Walmart on College Street) .  And apartments are quickly being reserved for next year so I need to hurry up... but I just don't know.  It's a sticky situation and I wish it would go away.

     As for other news, I got a B on my first Organismal Biology exam!!!!!!!!!  Yippeee!!  I know it may seem silly to be so excited over a B, but seriously... this is a major improvement from last semester's biology class.  This class is not easy, but I actually understand the teacher!  Next time I'm aiming for that A+ ;)  I have also signed up to go through Group Fitness training to be an instructor.  But it will be a long time before I start teaching classes... because first I'll be doing training twice a week this semester, then I'll teach one class for free each week in the fall, and then if I'm approved, I'll teach classes next spring.  I've been going to this class called "Dance Jam" and I really would love to teach it!  It's like zumba but it's all hip-hop music.  Or Zumba... either one would be fun.  I'm still waiting to find out if I got my dream summer job.  I really doubt it, since I didn't do well on the interview, but we'll see!  

Boogie Shoes   I feel like this song is appropriate for the topic :)

     This past Saturday I participated in the AU Dance Marathon for the Children's Miracle Network. It was amazing!!!!  It started at 10 a.m. and ended at 10 p.m.  We played lots of super fun games such as "Are you Smarter than A Miracle Child?" "Dancing with The Stars" (they brought in Aubie, Miss Homecoming, Miss Auburn, etc. and each team learned a routine with them and danced) "The Singing Bee", a west side vs. east side version of Ships and Sailors, and so much more!  The AU singers, tiger paws and AU rhythm got to perform.  They even brought in a zumba teacher for about an hour and also a salsa instructor!  Plus when all of this wasn't going on, we were dancing.  They played all my favorite dance songs!  The purpose was to "Stand for those who can't" so we stood the entire 12 hours.  Literally, when we ate they had tables for bar stools but no bar stools so we stood while we ate!  The children that represented CMN came with their families and spoke to us about what all people donation's go towards and they also got to be the judges of some of the games we played!  There was never a dull moment- it was a  BLAST and I can't wait for next year!!  Some lady interviewed me but don't get all excited it's only one line ;) The Auburn Plainsmen- AUDM
