Student Achievement Day

I participated in Student Achievement day on the 16th. My writing poetry 2 class did two sessions for the day called “Poets Corner”. It went alright, but we didn’t get as big of a turn out as we would have liked. That was partly due to the fact that Poet’ Corner wasn’t advertised. For Student Achievement Day, the campus gives out guides with each presentation going on, and the times for each session. They forgot to put us in the guide, so not a lot of people knew we were doing anything.

It was still fun, and it was my first actual poetry reading. My professor is encouraging all of us that went and read some work to put it in our resumes. Seeing as how this is my first reading, it will also be the start of my resume, which is kind if exciting. I think that it would be pretty neat to keep on attending readings. I enjoy reading poetry, and would rather like to build myself a resume.

Speaking of poetry reading I have another one coming up soon. My work was accepted by the Rivers Meet, so I am going to get my work published as well as be invited to read my work. I think that it is coming up this month, so I need to be sure to take that off from work. It seems that there have been a lot of events going on in the arts department lately. It’s nice to take part in the on campus community for a change.
