State

This weekend, I'll be making memories at a high school in Woodbury.  It's the annual MN State Convention for Student Councils, where some very important decisions are made, and we get to meet kids from other schools.  A long car ride is involved sure, but the experience I'll get for when I take over as NED President and the time I'll spend with many people including those from NED will far outweigh the drive.

There's actually a semi-formal banquet and dance on Sunday night, and that's going to be a good time as well. Being a DJ, any chances I have to not be stuck behind the booth and actually get out and dance in groups are welcomed with open arms.  I hope this part of the convention goes smoothly.

That being said, I hope the conference goes great, and I know I'll have a good time.

I didn't make any progress with the story this week, and I apologize again.

Next update is April 11th.  I leave you today with some stories from around my area done in the style of Weekend Update.

Miller Hill Mall announced this week that for the first time in 41 years, a couple would be getting married at the mall.  For the reception, each guest gets a $5 coupon for the food court.

Chipotle delayed its opening by two and a half months to mid-June, before playing an audio tape of the construction workers cackling maniacally in the background.

A man in Wisconsin celebrated his birthday with an eating contest, finally making him obese.

Here's what you do in your college public speaking class.  These videos are me when I gave the speeches.  We were asked to pick a community issue, from which I chose the EBT Program and how it needs reform, and then I later collaborated with Andrew Olfelt to give a speech on education reform here in America.  I hope you enjoy the speeches :) Speech of Introduction - Given 9/9/2016 Informative Speech - Given 10/7/2016 Team Persuasive Speech - Given 11/18/2016

A Post About Snow

Image
Snow is something many of us seem to be bi-polar about, myself included.  We love it when the first snowfall of the year graces it's way through our area, but by March we're sick of it and ready for Spring.  It coats the roads, causes car accidents, and sends people to supermarkets in droves, because everyone's worried that this will be the last time they ever make it out of their house for the next few days, which never really seems to be the case thankfully. Regardless of that though, lots of us love a good snow.  Think of the things we have to be thankful for when the snow flies.  We are now able to go (if there's enough snow), sledding, skiing, have snowball fights, and build snowmen. There are tons of things to do when that first winter storm hits, and we should enjoy it while we can.  I've been regretting not being able to take part in Winter activities these past few years due to my numerous prior commitments, but maybe this will be the year

TikTok: Why.... Just Why?

It's a day off and I'm sitting at home scrolling through the Snapchat stories of my friends and co-workers.  I'm just leaving one person's story and moving onto the next, but first I have to watch an advertisement, because Snapchat needs to make money somehow doesn't it? I look at the screen, and for some reason a teenaged dude is just chilling there in a white suit and clown makeup lip syncing to some song I've never heard of before.  The screen is split though, so you know someone else must be coming to join him, right?  Well low and behold not even five seconds later another teenager in a black suit with his hair groomed to resemble a sheep and blue/black skin steps in and starts lip syncing to another part of the song where a different person seems to sing.  The ad cuts out not long after that, and I'm back with my Snapchat stories. If you haven't guessed already, the ad is for smartphone app TikTok , which allows it's users to video rec
