At 8:00 a.m. my soothing alarm goes off and I hit snooze. It is an April Wednesday at Lasell University and I have an exciting day ahead. I wake up before it goes off again and roll out of bed. I take a shower and start my morning routine. I have a very specific morning routine that I follow every day. I eat breakfast, do my skincare routine, and drink lots of water. This morning I also called my mom!
I’m out the door by 9:10 a.m. to pick up program supplies for Lasell’s Habitat for Humanity Club. I am the president of the club and love being a part of the organization. Tomorrow, we are hosting a meal-making event to donate bagged lunches to a local homeless shelter!
By 9:30 a.m. I have found my way to my first class of the day! The class is PHIL302, otherwise known as Ethics. After sitting through that class, I order a drink at the STC on-campus Starbucks.
Next class is ED206, an early literacy class. The class begins at 11 a.m. and runs until 12:15 p.m. I am an elementary education major, so this is a class needed for my major. I also find it very interesting! Today, we have a quiz about phonological awareness.
After the class, it is time for lunch! I grab lunch with some people from my ED206 class at the dining hall. We stay there until my next class begins.
At 2 p.m., it is time for ED337. The class is Teaching and Applying Math. We are working on developing our classroom policies for when we enter the classroom.
After the class, I get back to my dorm around 3:30 p.m. I have an hour to get some homework done before my evening activities begin. Today, that does not happen! I ended up taking a nap until my weekly yoga class began at 5 p.m. Yoga was super relaxing and such a great practice.
After yoga, I eat a quick dinner in my dorm. Then at 7 p.m., I head off to an Empty Bowls meeting. The club just organized a successful event in March, raising money for the Centre Street Food Pantry. Tonight, we are celebrating raising over $4,000! All the money will go towards fighting food insecurity in Newton and surrounding communities. We have a fun potluck filled with yummy food. Plus, a Kahoot game and t-shirt decorating.
I leave the ceramics studio around 9:30 p.m. to head back to my dorm for the night. I get into my pajamas within seconds of returning. I am currently watching Daisy Jones & The Six with my roommate, so we watch 2 episodes before I go to bed. After the show, I do my skincare routine, journal, and go to sleep! Thanks for reading along throughout my day!
