I can hardly believe the summer has almost passed. Welcome the new incoming Blog Squad members by the way i’m looking forward to meeting all of you!
It was only yesterday when I remember coming back from Whitewater Rafting on May 2nd and starting my first day as a Chapman Learning Commons Assistant. A month went by and so did two courses, COMM 391 and COMM 392, which are Management Information Systems and Human Resources Management respectively.
Now, two more months of summer have passed and it’s home stretch before school starts. What I did over the summer was make a list on Google Docs of things to do, both personal and work related, and kept working on new things whenever I have time. Here’s a taste of what I did over the summer.
- Revamped Room
- Looked up how to start a sponsorship in my name (It’s really expensive and can get complicated fast so avoid it until you’re rich)!
- Started my website (http://andrewli.ca). Shameless Promotion I know. It doesn’t have too much on it yet.
- Checked up on a lot of my friends from high school and my dragonboat team manager who I haven’t seen in along time.
- Began borrowing DVDs from the Library (i’m talking about the Matrix, A Cinderella Story, Life Free or Die Hard)
- Came in 2nd for U19 Mixed Baddiboomers at Badmintology’s Midsummer Legacy Tournament and won a trophy and a mousepad.
I challenge everyone to keep a list like this all the time. This whole summer was a learning experience for me not just about work but about myself. It’s nice to take some time when you have a break and do some activities that jump and interest you personally.
Question of the Week: What are you most excited about for the first month of school?
