HEY!!!!

Hey there everyone!
My name is Katie Olson and I am a junior here at Bethany College. I am a Biology/Pre-med major and also participated in softball my freshman and sophomore years. This year I am helping as a student coach.
Things are really coming together around campus right now. The apartments were finished about a month ago and upperclassmen, including myself, got to move in. I am enjoying the apartments thoroughly! They are also rebuilding and making advances on Nelson Science Building, which is awesome for us science geeks because we are getting all new labs.
Also starting on campus is basketball season. This is an exciting time of year because we are all still supporting the fall sports but also get to enjoy going to winter sports games. The men's basketball team started on Monday night with a scrimmage against Pratt Community College and won. Good start for a good season. The women played on Tuesday night and showed very good potential for this season as well.
Well, thats all I have for now but I will be chatting with you all again soon!
Later!!

JigSaw Puzzle.

Have you ever found yourself close to completing a puzzle just to find out that you are missing a piece?

As you know last week was spirit week here on campus. We kicked off the week with crazy hair/sock day followed by cowboy/Indian day then twin day followed by PJ day and finally neon day.

It seemed as if many people forgot the crazy hair/sock day, including myself.

The next day was cowboy/Indian day. I found myself wearing my cowgirl attire along with a seldom few.

Wednesday was twin day. I had this day all figured out. Me and my friend were going to be twins, all decked out in crazy stuff. But, needless to say that missing puzzle piece would have me in a blunder....She didn't dress accordingly. My twin ditched me!

Following twin day was PJ day. Campus wasn't afraid to show their spirit on this day. Everyone dressed for the occasion.

Finally there was NEON day. Surprisingly campus was full of many bright colors, myself included.

Even though I faced that frustrating feeling of that missing puzzle piece on Wednesday, spirit week was still a blast. I believe that our true colors were shown on Saturday's game when our football boys WON!!!!

Congradualtions boys!!!!

Have a great week! I'll be writing again soon.

SHARLA!

It's Already October!!

Soo..I can't believe that October is already here! It's amazing how time flies by!
October to me means the official start of basketball practice. We have been doing our pre-season workouts since August and I am definately ready to get to start actual practice on the 15th!! Our first game is towards the beginning of November and I am super excited to get this year rolling!!

Classes are going pretty good! I'm an accounting/finance major..so the classes aren't the most inspirational ones to sit through..but they're still good ones!!

This week is a pretty busy and exciting week here at Bethany!! Homecoming is on Saturday so we have lots of fun festivities to participate in!! There are different dress up days and today is Crazy hair and sock day..so campus looks a little crazier than usual!! Also, Friday is our ANNUAL Talent show!! The talent show is an awesome time, and i'm really excited to see everyones "talents" this year!!

I hope everyones school year is going Fabulous!! Take care and talk to you soon!!
