SIFE BLOG: Presentation recap, plans for the day

By Victoria Van Arnam | SIFEMedia@flagler.edu

The team did incredible at the presentation this morning at 9. The presentation was on, the question and answer went great and the visual was perfect. We are about to go and eat with the executives and other teams. Right now, we’re at a career fair.

We ran into a number of Flagler alumni including Amy Waers, who works at Sam’s Club.

We’ll update again soon, but we’re really busy right now.

After arriving early in North Carolina, we ate lunch at an amazing deli near our hotel.

After lunch we went over to the conference center. Where we ran into Morgan Clevanger from SIFE headquarters; we traveledl with him to Berlin in October. We also saw our new regional coordinator, Brittany Attwood Dennis at the conference center. It is great to run into people we know!

We arrived at our hotel in Charlotte, NC at one o’clock, after a seven hour bus ride from St. Augustine. The ride was quiet, most of the team stayed up the night before and packed or worked on the presentation.
We left at 7 and had a massive bagel and donut breakfast on the bus.

Tech Chic: Geek Chic

So there is style, then there is fashion, and then there is what everyone else wears. Today, I will be looking into a classic computer geek’s stylish apparel. The amazing thing about this type of individual is that they really do not care what everyone else is wearing much less what everyone thinks they should wear. This fact alone almost nullifies any purpose of writing a fashion piece about them.

Travel Blog: A day in paradise

“This can’t be real,” was the thought that kept running in my mind as I lay on golden sand the consistency of flour in the middle of January. The big, curving palm trees shading the sand from the warm sun were bright green and full of lime green coconuts the size of soccer balls. The water was various colors of blue ranging from aqua and turquoise to ultramarine and cobalt and as it tossed around the seashells on shore, all I could do was soak in the beauty of the closest thing to paradise I’ve ever been.
