Gratitude Blog: Day 4 By: Helen Ruiz It’s finally Friday, and although I didn’t realize this fact until around noon, during my accounting class, I am very grateful that we are done through week 12! Only one more month left of this semester- yay!! Today, we got our exam scores back in my Principles of Marketing class, and I was very grateful that my 6+ hours of studying paid off to get me the score I deserved. What I don’t think I deserved very much was walking out of the business building into very icy snow hitting my face. I’m not a big fan of the cold, so this was a not-so-great characteristic of today. Nevertheless, it was something I could deal with. As a first-year mentor, I have to spend a certain amount of money for students in my class. Another FYM and I created an event together. For our get-together, we decided to have Bundtinis from Nothing Bundt Cakes. When we went to pick them up, we ended up treating ourselves to our own mini-Bundt . I am so grateful we...
Gratitude Blog: Thanksgiving Break By: Helen Ruiz Thanksgiving break is the time of year in which everyone expresses their gratitude towards a variety of people, places, and things in their lives.

My bank account hurt a bit but that’s okay. Consequently, I am also very thankful for my job. Above all, I am grateful we got amazing food for lunch on Friday. We had a full b...
My experience playing Chip in Beauty and The Beast By Erin The third show I ever did was Beauty and The Beast. I played Chip, the teacup, and I alternated with another person playing the same role. When I wasn’t Chip, I played an ensemble member and had a costume where I wore a white shirt, black cummerbund, a black skirt, and a fake cup that hung around my waist with straps on my shoulders. You would think that’s a good costume for Chip, but the Chip costume was much more elaborate. When I was Chip, I sat in a cart, and only my head looked like a teacup. There was a hole on the top of the cart for my head, and my face poked out of a soft a head-dress-like thing to make me look like a teacup. I got into the cart through a door on the back sat on some pillows on a slant. This cart had a mirror on the front, so it looked like there was nothing in the cart from far away. I got around the stage by someone dressed as a napkin pushing the cart. My neck did get a bit tired from trying to keep...
