I helped with sorting school supplies in the closet and painting walls for the new location. It was a lot of fun to be able to help the community!
I volunteered at the Restore and helped with sorting donations and keeping the store clean. In addition, I made signs for the store to use. I also got to know the worker, Catl(love her name!), she's super friendly and fun to talk to. I was also able to help a couple of customers to fulfill their needs.
This was a great experience! I volunteered at the Lifewater booth and helped people to get to know better about the organization and its mission. The organization participates in the First Friday and the crowds were huge, I had good talks with many people and even got a couple of people signed up to volunteer for Lifewater! I would definitely volunteer for them again in the future!
For this event, I helped to clean up the kitchen and transport any leftover goods to destinate spots. After the game night, I helped move the tables and chairs and picked up any trash at the game area. It was a fun experience because I watched parents and children spending quality time together which was a relaxing view for me.
I attended Dr. Treat's academic workshop "should I change/add my majors?" virtually on this day. I have been thinking about change my major this entire semester because I'm doing well in my classes. However, I do not have a idea what I want to change it to. After using this workshop to look at my degree audit, I have decided that it is not necessary for me to change the major because it will add extra semesters yet it doe not add extra assistances to my career goal.
During this volunteer opportunity, I have meet new people and work with them to clean up the Book sale event by moving the excess books from the library to the parking garage.Then we put all of the books into big cardboard boxes , and move the cart back to the storage room. This event was fun because I have met students from different majors and organizations. I also helped them to take a group photo after the volunteer was finished !
I attended the Recess on this day which they had asian snacks and spicy noodles challenge! It was fun to eat my sweet snacks while watching others do the challenge. It was a very good relaxation for me after two test at that morning. I also ran into Xochitl and had a little chat!
I went to the Final recess, got hot cocoa at the coffee table, and sat down on the couch to chill. I also had a little chat with Anna(from my cohort) about the semester and final. It was an overall relaxing study break on the last day of class!
Received a covid vaccination.
I helped put Christmas products on the shelf, cleaned the front door, and sorted clothes. My manager was really nice and several customers thanked me for volunteering, I thought it was really sweet of them for doing that. It was a really fun experience because the manager was really talkative, it was actually quite relaxing for me to see him make small talk with every customer when they are at registration; which reminds me that there's so much more to do other than school works.
Many thanks, Kalina!
