Friday night, I sat in my room contemplating whether or not I was going to attend the homecoming dace. In the back of my mind I just simply wanted to sleep, until my friends called my phone. I answered, and one of my friends said, “Kendra, I promise I will come and drag you out of the bed. You have to go to the dance, everyone will be there.” So at the knock of my door I jumped up out of the bed only to find out it was my wonderful friends. So I got dressed, and began to grow excited about what the night had to bring.

Once my friends and I arrived at the dance, it was live and hype. The music was bumping and everyone wasted no time out on the dance floor–well, Dunkle Gym that is. I had to get a piece of this fun that everyone else seemed to be having. So with the night being young, my friends and I danced the night away having too much fun. The homecoming dance turned out to be a success. I was so glad that I did not miss a moment of it. I absolutely, without a doubt enjoyed my night.

This past weekend was one of the best weeks ever. Not only did the campus host Relay for Life, but there was also a Switchfoot concert being held at the field house. There was also the admissions event for high school juniors, Junior Exploration. There were so many people on campus. It was so exciting to see everyone involved in the events taking place. I did not attend the Switchfoot concert but I know it was awesome. I got the opportunity to assist some of my teammates in working the hot dog stand for the concert. That day it was raining and really cold. Despite the weather, everyone lined up ready for a great night. I had to be at the gym early because of Relay for Life. I arrived at 3:30 only to see people already lined up for the concert. The doors opened at 7 and the concert started at 8. A lot of my friends went and they had a great time. I know some of the juniors who were visiting went as well. The gym was packed full this past weekend. The parking for both events was well organized but it was obvious how many people came out and were on campus. So, moreover, it was a great weekend for everyone!

One of the many things I love about Spring Arbor University is when karaoke nights are held on campus. It continues to be one of many nights where students are able to take a quick break from their busy schedule and enjoy fellowship, laughs and fun.There was a karaoke and open mic night held this past week.

The Student Government Association and Catalyst Student Events always do a great job at putting such an event together. There are many other events that are held on campus just as enjoyable as this one. Another exciting one that will happen soon is Porchfest. That is an event that is sure to bring you lots of laughs and there are always many games, food, and other exciting surprises. During last year’s Porchfest I won a gold fish and ate so many of the  tasty treats that were available there. Also, the Spring Arbor University Spring Fling is coming up quickly. It will be a semi-formal dance where students can come out and again enjoy themselves with music, snacks, and their friends. I always look forward to the events on campus. They allow you to get involved and there is always the opportunity to meet and form new friendships.

LAMROF! Its FORMAL spelled backwards. Over the weekend the ladies of Gainey Hall dressed as wacky as they could, brought out their best dance moves, and had some fun. It was held on Friday night in the Lobby on the second floor of Gainey. The festivities that night were really alive. There was food, food, and more food along with a DJ to keep the party hyped. The cupid shuffle and electric slide- YES! There was all that and more. The Resident Director and Resident Assistant did a wonderful job decorating and making sure that everyone was having fun. There were different contests and prizes for the winners including best lip sync and best moves on the dance floor.  No one was shy; everyone just enjoyed fellowship and dancing after a long day of classes. Talk about fun times…That surely was a fun and exciting night to remember.

Last night was the Puerto Rico Missions Trip Thrift Store. Everything there was only a dollar. How many times do you get a change to rummage through your neighbors clothes and save money and purchase nice things for a cheap price? There were tables with a variety of shirts, sweaters, shoes, and much more. It was very nice to go out and look though some of the things. A lot of my friends walked out with bags of different things that they were able to find there. I believe it began at 9:00, It was sure to be a great turn out especially with all those who would be coming through for meal exchange. I’m sure the Puerto Rico missions trip were able to make out fairly well. It was good to see that everyone was so supportive with coming out and purchasing the items that were there. I think this happens every year. One of my friends in my New Testament class came in and I commented on her nice sweater. She was so excited and told me that she bought it at the thrift store in the DC last night. Hopefully next year we’ll be able to do this again because I love the whole idea and I greatly support the cause behind it.
