2nd Programming on July 11

This past Monday I had programming yet again, although before programming I got to attend a workshop called True Colors. It was a personality based test, to show you what color (out of four) you were and how you interact with people because of it. The four colors were orange, gold, blue and green. A little blurb about each - orange is an free thinker can do the work but is not stressed about deadlines and likes to be around people - gold is an organized thinker one who plans and lists just about everything and is very concerned with deadlines although does not care much for other people - blue is the very social one who will do the work, but only as long as the group dynamic is okay first - green is the analytical one preferring to work alone and analyze each piece of information as it comes along. After I took the assessment I found out that my two highest scores were gold and orange, only separated by one point. As I told the group this the woman running it was surprised because apparently orange and gold are opposites.

After that I headed to the Career Bootcamp, and got some business cards, so I'm super professional. Although they don't have my cell phone number on them. Strange. Anyways then we had to listen to a woman speak about volunteerism, it was kind of boring. Then we were told to choose from a list two events we would be interested in attending. The first one I went to was called "Negotiating Your First Salary" it was pretty informative and it was cool because the man who headed the discussion up is actually my professor for my leadership class. The second one I went to was called "A Different Bottom Line: Careers in the Non-Profit Sector" which was also informative, and something I found surprising was the best undergraduate degree to have to do work within the non-profit sector.....it was history. Haha, so I've got another option to consider. After that I just headed back with everyone else to the RAF and wrote a couple blog posts before heading to bed.


In not so happy news I also recieved a phone call from my mother saying that our dog Dutchess, had passed away. It was and still is very sad for me. But she was a wonderful dog and I loved her very much.
