Some Sad News

I have some sad news friends. I am not going to be able to blog as much any longer. I have graduated from York University and I am will not be working at York's RED Zone. Since RED Zone is a work study job (meaning you have to be a student to work in this position) I have to spread my wings and find a different location to work. Since I am not blogging as much anymore I wanted to give you the option to read some of my lovely co-worker's blogs.

Here they are, check out their blogs and twitters to find more information!

In other news, you can still follow me in a different way if you choose! My partner and I have been writing a different kind of blog, so if you still want to connect with me you can look at our blog. :) Thank you all for being so awesome and let me know at any time if you have any questions, I would be happy to answer it! :)

Have No Fear....I'm Still Here!

I am not going to lie, I have been home for the past two weeks, which is why I have been slacking a little bit with blogging. Let me tell you it has been a very relaxing and lovely experience to be back home! I have had the opportunity to catch up with all of my family and friends (which seem to take a back seat sometimes when you are at school or away from home). One thing I have definitely missed has been my interactions with all of you and being at York's RED Zone! Do not worry, I will be back Monday to answer any burning questions regarding your first few weeks of school.

Have any questions right now? ASK AWAY!!!

Your Task If You Choose To Accept Is....



Your task if you choose to accept is this....

I challenge you to complete all of these tasks by the end of your first week of school. Let's see how you do and be sure to let me know how it goes!


1. Meet someone new in all of your classes and get their email or phone number.
2. Go to a random building that you do not have a class in and explore.
3. Try a food that you have never had before on campus.
4. Pack your own lunch for at least 3 days of the first week of school.
5. Bring a water bottle, so you can refill your bottle at the hydration stations.
6. GO TO FROSH WEEK!
7. Compliment someone by first dissing them and then be nice to them after (This suggestion came from Yusuf, a student I was chillin' with in the RED Zone Lounge).
8. Have someone listen to your IPOD or music on transportation to York (if you live in Res, have one of your roomies listen to your favourite song).
9. Smile at at least 15 people during this week.
10. Do at least 5 hours worth of physical activity in your first week.

HAPPY CHALLENGE and GOOD LUCK!

Tours on Campus

Want a tour of Keele Campus?
The tour of campus is really awesome and something I highly suggest doing. This is done by the Bennett Centre once a day (the times vary each day). You can meet the student ambassadors in the central kiosk the day you plan on coming in. If you would like to see the schedule just click here for the tour times. They also have information about parking for the day if you plan on driving to school to take this tour. The Bennett Centre is number 41 on the campus map. 

Want a tour of Glendon Campus?
Glendon campus conducts their tours daily, as well as on the weekends! If you want more information on how to sign up and when they are please visit here. Need to find where Glendon campus is? Here are directions!

Want a tour of Residence?
Want to see your residence room before you actually come on move in day? Residence tours take place each day at 2:30pm in McLaughlin College. This is number 51 on the Keele campus map, so check that out.



Here is the MAP for both the Bennett Centre (number 41 on the map) and McLaughlin College (number 51 on the map). 

*If you get lost, find us at the RED Zone and we will direct you to the correct place! :)

Italian Sodas Are Where It's At!

For the past few weeks, I have been a little obsessed with Second Cup's deal! They have Italian Sodas for 1 dollar. So if you are looking for something cool and different to try, who can go wrong with $1.13?

*** Nicole and I enjoying our delicious Italian Sodas***

***We are trying to get all of the flavours, do you think we can do it?***

I will see you there! Any other deals you know of on campus?
