Tony's Homecoming

Hey everyone its Tony again!
Homecoming was a great time except the Mustangs lost a tough one to Augie. :'( OBC dominated in the resident hall spirit contest with our awesome Mardi Gras decorations. On Tuesday the homecoming royalty was hypnotized. Lots of laughs. Mustang Karaoke Idol was a blast and full of a lot of talent on Wednesday. Friday Night I worked at the Gala. It's a big dinner fundraiser that a bunch of alumni go to and bid on auction and silent auction items. Saturday was the game. Classes are still going well, but mid-semester break is Thursday and Friday so there won't be classes!

Introducing: Brittaney Collins

Hi name Brittaney Collins; I am from Miami, FL and I’m in my fourth year here at SMSU. I am a double degree in Public Administration and Business Administration with a minor in Political Science. Over the past four years I have been involved in SMSU Ambassadors, BSU, and the Homecoming Leadership Team just to name a few. But as of right know I am only in one club, which is the SMSU Showstoppers (hip-hop dance & step) that I started my freshman year in 2006. I also teach hip hop dance at Southwest School of Dance. I also had the privilege of planning the 2009 Homecoming Parade. SMSU has done so much for me in the four years that I have been here. Faculty and staff are great; I can talk to them about anything not just school. I have had the pleasure of being called my name, which may sound silly but my goal was to not be another number and here at SMSU I am not. I have learned so much here at SMSU and I plan to take it all with me.

Juno Malla's post

Hi Everyone,

I'm Juno Malla and this is my first blog. I am from Kathmandu, Nepal. I came to SMSU in spring 2009. My major is Business Administration. The first semester in college is always so exciting for everyone. As an International student I get to have different experience to study with students from all around the world. English was the second language in my home country, but after coming to United States, I had to make english as my first language. It took me a while to be adjusting with different system of education in United States because back home we don't have quizzes and paper due every week. I took twelve credits my first semester, so it wasn't difficult for me to adjust with it.

I am also associated with ISO ( International Students Association). I am volunteering as secretary for ISO. ISO has been the home to me, ISO has done its best to make Southwest my "home-away-from-home." ISO has been organizing many volunteery Programs and has helped to adjust to the culture and encourage us accomplish our academic and career goals. We have exciting program coming up this weekend.October 10th is Homecoming Coming Parade and we hope to have fun.
