Week 1

It is always nice to get the semester off to a running start. I am feeling a little bit overwhelmed with the many projects and general homework that I am going to have this semester. I need to continue to practice good organization skills and keep myself motivated throughout this semester. I am excited for the challenge of this semester because it will force me to set my goals high. I always look forward to all the great things a new semester has to offer.

I am also excited about getting to know a new group of Hixson Peer Mentors. I find that I learn so much from other people and hearing about their experiences. It is always interesting to listen to different point of views from mentors with different backgrounds. I am also enjoying the fact that we got a new text book for the class. I am looking forward to obtaining new ideas about being a peer mentor.

An experience I look ahead to every year is ISCORE. It is one of my favorite events at Iowa State. I always learn new facts about a culture and I find it very interesting. I feel privileged that Iowa State has such an outstanding event. I also really like that students give a lot of the presentations. It shows there dedication to wanting to be educated and to edcuate others on various sensitive subjects.

I am very excited about this semester and getting to know all of the other peer mentors. I think this is going to be another great group of leaders!
