Holy CRAP-stone

The gig is finally up and capstone is upon us seniors. I have been working my @$$ off trying to stabilize the situation of this feat. This is a very intimidating moment in your education. Capstone, for those a little slow waking up today, is the finale in Season 4 (or 5 or like me 6 years) of your college education. You have to look sharp, be ready for a hate bash interrogation, and have work to back that thing up, shoot. It is very demanding and for those of you in Capstone, you get it. For those of you who are looking to face this nasty gauntlet in the years to come, be prepared to work every spare moment on this for that semester. But it will not be in vain, this is that moment in your educational history that will help you decide if you can make it in your field of study or if you want to decide to mooch off your parents for the rest of your life. It will give you the confidence to take it to the next level. The pursuit of happiness. So the BFA majors are presenting their capstones this week. Wednesday the 28th in the old student union, the capstone art show will be presented at 5:30pm, this is where my big painting is exhibited. And the other is Friday the 30th at 5:30. This show will be downtown claremore at a beauty of a place called Wolf Gallery. Both shows are demonstrated with lots of talent and skill. ADVICE NUMERO UNO - Go to these shows. ADVICE NUMERO DOS - Juniors, find your capstones and attend a presentation, it will give you a good look at what is expected. Hope to see yall in the Old Student Union tommorrow.

STAY CLASSY ROGERS STATE

Financial Slacking 101

Wow. Sometimes you just have those days, when you don't know what happened and you fell off of that nice comfy chair you were sitting in on top of the world. I got some comfortable, and it's there I was faced with a very interesting situation. So I went to enroll in my final semester at Rogers State. I was all pumped up and ready, then I found out there was a hold on my account by the bursars office. I was confused because I had gotten money back from the school in Feb. So I went to the bursars office where they proceeded to tell me that my account needed to be paid, I owed them about 1200 dollars. I was confused because if I were to owe them money, then why would they give me money. Apparently after you attend college for four years, OHLAP (a scholarship I get from the state) decided it was time for me to move on and I no longer got money from them. Which was extremely odd considering I was awarded it for that semester. So in a state of panic thinking this would take awhile I found my self in a bit of a predicament. But I was able to get a loan to cover that amount and get enrolled. So I survived that wonderful attack of my loving college career. But I have good advice for you guys now. Check with your scholarships and make sure they don't run out on you, when you are seriously expecting them. Because it is not Rogers State Financial Aid office's job to keep up with your records, this is your responsibility and they do not alert you, if your money is almost up. This is your job to keep track. So keep your heads up and alert. Be ready for that day, and drink responsibly.

Also I saw a poster today saying we were going to have an outdoor showing of The Hangover on April 22nd. This is so frackin amazazing. I am pumped. That was my girl and mine's first date. Wow. It is so funny too. I want to quote part of the movie now, but I feel it's a tad pole bit to inappropriate. But "What do tigers dream of? When they take a little tiger snooze, do they dream of mauling zebras or Haley Berry in her cat women suit." haha good times.

I better see yall there. You Stay Classy, ROGERS STATE HILLCATS.

Signing Off, Rob.
