So it's week two and I'm freezing. All the time.

Week two: Feels like I'm in Antarctica 

            Another week of marketing class down, and quite frankly I’m still very intrigued with the class. The more I go to class, the more I genuinely enjoy the class. To be honest, I've never had a class I really looked forward to going to. It's very different when you have something you're really fascinated in. Only problem I’ve been running into going to these classes is the weather. Holy Moley it is FREEZING in Vermont. Today it’s a balmy -9 so clearly I’m not leaving my bed for the day. Also, I have some exciting news! As of Friday, I’m a declared business administration major with a concentration in Marketing! I’m really excited to finally be taking some of the steps to becoming a real person (as weird as that sounds)

         So this week in marketing was particularly hard for me since I had to present chapter two. Ally, my partner, and I had to go through the chapter, pick out some main topics, and then from there had to design a lesson plan type of presentation. We played three games, which I’m almost positive, made most of the class hate us since they had to get up at 9:45 in the morning when they’re all half asleep. To start off we talked about the four P’s of marketing and played a game. We put the four P’s up and took sup-topics from each and had the students match them up. Game went smoothly except for when Ally and I totally forgot one of the answers. Oops. Then Professor Popovitch had us switch the students to their laptops and go on the McDonald’s website. We went through and asked for examples of cash cows, question marks, dogs and stars. That went really well and it was good to get a look at the way things actually apply to real life.         

            Next week we have our first test on Thursday. I’m nervous because the first test is always tricky since you don’t know how a certain professor tests. It’s only on the first three chapters, which aren’t bad so I’m not too worried about it. I also have my TED talk on February fourth. Which by the way, I cannot believe it’s already almost February! This year is flying by and I keep feeling like I’m forgetting to do some assignments. I guess I just need to try and be on top of my game more. Oh well.

            All in all, I think that this week was good; I really enjoyed working with Ally in our group, although it was hard having to go first. I like getting my presentations over with, but I don’t like having to be the first one. When someone goes in front of you, you have a chance to almost have the waters be tested for you. I also liked learning about the different parts of chapter 2. The deeper we get into the marketing class, the more I know I’ve made the right decision for my concentration with my
