Second Semester and ASU Basketball

So it begins again. It is now time for our second semester of school and get right back into the swing of things. I’m not going to lie, this semester is looking pretty tough for me. I have all tourism classes and all are 300 and 400 level. Looking at the syllabi for these classes, I have a lot of group projects and a lot of term papers. Intense semester? I think so. I know I can do it and I’m sure I’ll be able to survive but it’s going to be pretty rough! I’m also taking my first online class ever and not by choice either. It’s only offered online, so we’ll see how that goes as well. Even though I’m a little nervous for this semester, I’m really looking forward to learning more about the Tourism industry. So far I really like what I’m getting in my lectures, just not looking forward to the huge papers down the road. Anyways, this is my schedule for Spring 2010.

TDM 325- Tourism Accommodations
TDM 345- Meeting and Convention Planning
TDM 350- Tourism Marketing (Online)
TDM 458- International Tourism
TDM 480- Nature-based Tourism

Like I said, all tourism and all 300 and 400 level classes. Other than my grueling schedule, I got to have another awesome experience here at ASU. I went to our men’s basketball game for the first time. It was on Saturday night and we were playing our rivals, U of A. Just like the football games, students and alumni were gathered together to cheer on our Sun Devils. The energy was high and since we were facing our rival team, the desire to win was overwhelming. Unfortunately, we lost, but my friends and I still had an amazing time. If you haven’t been to a game yet, you should soon! Try going to both the men’s and women’s games. The season is almost over so go out there and support your ASU Sun Devils! Hope everyone is having a great second semester and have an Awesome Day!!!
