Chilly times in the zoo

Summer is slowly slipping away. With the high being a chilling 45 degrees, this is something that takes me awhile to get used to each year. Fall in Michigan is beautiful don’t get me wrong, however the sorts of activities I like are much more enjoyable in the warm weather.
At Western a good portion of students go home for the summer. However if you want to stay through out the year there are options both on and off campus. I stayed in French hall last year on the tenzing floor for transfer students. The lease for my room was up after spring classes, so I subleased an apartment off campus for the summer.

How did I spend my beautiful summer days?

Have you ever been to this magical place called Disney? I was lucky enough to go to Walt Disney World with my family right after spring classes were released. That was the first time returning to Florida in years. This was such a great experience to be able to share with my six younger siblings. While at Disney I learned about a college programs & paid internships that they offer to students. This is something I’ve been considering for the fall of 2013.
However after all that craziness I returned to Kalamazoo for the summer. I was working two jobs, and opted out of taking classes. Though working as a student ambassador, and peer leader for the Seita program I still had time to attend some pretty awesome festivals. Some shows I went to include: This world is ours tour, spring awakening music festival, mayhem, electric forest, and mad decent block party. How did you spend your summer?
