Now that we've come.....

to the end of the road (B2M), I would like to sum up my first year of college with a list (lists are my fave):

1.) I made a bunch of new friends
2.) Grades were relatively good (*see 2/14/08 post)
3.) Became relatively involved (THEM, choir, etc.); hope to be more involved next semester
4.) Balanced everything with work (if you must work, be a DSC)
5.) Survived my first Mardi Gras (*see the Mardi Gras post)
6.) Had an awesome Spring Break in LA
7.) Found my way around the city only getting lost like 3 times
8.) Figured out the crappy take-out restaurants
9.) Considered a double-major
10) Wrote a bunch of blogs
11) Applied and was hired as an RA for next semester

So basically: Tulane + New Orleans = (way)better than high school

See all you freshies next semester.
The End

.........

......(head hung in shame)

I know.

Pratically a month.

But I've been very busy, so it's not like I've just been hanging around goin to Bourbon.

First off, I've had like 2 or 3 a cappella performances. Not only performances, but the entire month of April has pretty much been encompassed by recording sessions and editing for our new album, "Let THEM Eat Cake". Btw, the CD is gonna be off the chain so if you want a copy just email me (tscott@tulane.edu) and I'll hook you up. Oh and check out our site www.tulane.edu/~them.

Second, I've had RA training for the past 5 weeks. And I found out that I will be an RA in Mayer next semester, which was my first choice, so I'm very excited.

Third, school was really intense these last couple of weeks so I had to buckle down and study; which has paid off for the most part since I've gotten A's and B's on last couple of tests.

And slightly off subject, I've still been seeing a lot of prospective students around campus, so that makes think that maybe next year's class is gonna be huge. Last I heard a couple of weeks ago, the enrollment was at 1600; already 200 more compared to my class this year. And if you haven't done so already, don't forget to send in your security deposit to secure your spot in next year's class.

Anyways, back to me....btw that's not meant to sound egotistical at all.

I went to a Hornets game about 2 weeks and that was awesome even though I couldn't stay the whole time because I had rehearsal but whatev.

And as far as choir is concerned, this past week has been the busiest all semester:

-Monday, Dress rehearsal for Concert #1

-Tuesday, Concert #1

-Wednesday, Dress rehearsal for Concert #2 & Concert #3

-Thursday, Concert #2

-Sunday(tomorrow), Concert #3

Plus I had the oral part of my French final this past week.

So needless to say, I've been really involved and loving every minute of it.

I hope my readers haven't abandoned me.

Peace, Love, Tyrone

Back to Reality

Break was awesome. I didn't want to come back so soon but alas, I am here.

One thing that I have been noticing is that there have been a lot of campus tours. Then it hit me that this is the same time I came to visit Tulane last year. I can remember it like it was yesterday.

It was a rainy humid day and my mom and I had just left our hotel downtown. I was so nervous driving up to the school that I almost passed it. Once we got into Richardson Memorial and I saw the first slide show, I was really excited to hear more. Then after hearing President Cowen speak I almost knew right then, that I had made my decision to come to Tulane.

Many of you high school seniors will be making your final college decisions in the next couple of weeks and I encourage all of you to visit the schools that you are considering. You may find that the school you thought was perfect may not feel right at all, or that one of your safety schools is actually the perfect fit for you. Whatever your decision, make sure you consider all of your options.

If you have any questions about Tulane just hit up me at tscott@tulane.edu

Ok, so enough words of wisdom. Here are some pictures from LA:

Out of the office, leave a message.

Tyrone is chillaxin' in LA for Spring Break. Be back next week with some great pics!

au revoir

Springtime for Tyrone

Ok so it's not really Spring but it feels like it. Especially since its 69 and sunny as I am typing this.

As far as my life right goes, its sorta busy. I'm in the process of applying and interviewing to be an RA for next semester. It's sort of nerve-wrecking but I'm excited at the same time. I've already done the individual interview and I just got back from the group interview/activity. I really hope I get the position but I won't know until next Monday, so be on the lookout for that announcement.

Also my a cappella group is recording it's 3rd album this week and we're really pumped. There are gonna be some oldies and some new stuff too, but either way it's gonna be our best album yet. Btw, we are pre-selling CDs so if you're interested just shoot me an email (tscott@tulane.edu) because we have a tendency to sellout the week its released.

It's still midterm time right now but everyone has motivation since Spring Break is right around the corner.

I think that's my life in a nutshell as of now. So now I will leave you with a photo gallery from the Tulane Greek step show hosted by Xavier University this past Friday:
