It's that time of year for everyone to dress up in whatever type of costume they would like! What were some of the costumes amongst our Berkeley Students this year? I will post a picture below, like I promised, to show what I did for this year! Here it is:
Yes, that is right, KISS!! I got the pleasure of being the cat, and the others in the picture are my boyfriend, his brother and his brothers wife. We threw a surprise birthday party for his father since his birthday is on the 30th, and decided what a great way to celebrate with getting the family together and dressing up! I felt famous last night, everyone wanted a picture with our group!
I hope everyone has a great Halloween weekend!
Aside from Halloween, some things happening with school. First off, tomorrow begins registration for the Winter 2011 quarter. Please be sure to check your Berkeley email for instructions on how to register for classes. There are a lot of new additions to self-service, so be sure to check them out.
I received some exciting news the other day that I have been accepted into the Honors Program, so I will be enrolling in the Introductory Honors class for this upcoming Winter Quarter. I am really looking forward to accomplishing another huge task in my college career! I get nervous because Honors programs are pretty intimidating, but as long as I keep my head up and continue to work hard, I'll be fine!
For my fellow online students, there will be an essay contest going on. Below is the information you need to participate:
