A step away from Coe

Hello Readers,

I hope everyone everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  It was great to see my family and eat way too much food! :)  I also worked in the emergency room while I was at home!  It was great to see all my coworkers also.  Before thanksgiving break my fraternity and I went on a trip to the Mississippi river museum and aquarium.  This was a great time to bond with my brothers and see some cool stuff.  We got to watch a 4D movie about the deep sea monsters.  I love seeing the sea animals and I haven't been to an aquarium in a while.  On board for this week is 2 tests and initiation for my fraternity.  I always love initiation week because we get to add new brothers to the bond!  I attached some pictures of the aquarium.

Thanks for reading,
Justin

Thanksgiving with ΛΧΑ

Hello Readers,

Last night all the Brothers of my fraternity got together and we had a big thanksgiving dinner together before we all head home to our families!  This was a great bonding opportunity to just relax, eat some good food and clear our heads of school.  We do this every year and it seems to get better and better.  Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans and even PIE!  Tomorrow Coe will host the first round football playoff game for the second time in school history.  This will be a fun game to be at  and we are still undefeated! :)  On tonights agenda I am going to the Cedar Rapids Roughrider hockey game with all the brothers of lambda chi alpha.  This is also an annual event we host and should be a great time.  I hope you all have a great weekend.  Enjoy my pictures from our turkey dinner! :)

Looking back on the semester...In pictures!

Hello Readers,

Hopefully this post finds everyone having a great day.  With Halloween just passed, that means it's on to Thanksgiving then the final stretch til Christmas. You may have gone out and gotten your Halloween costumes and candy, and are now thinking about Christmas decorations, Ugly Sweater parties, and all holiday food.  Looking back on the semester it has been a great one! :)  I have picked some great photos that explain my semester thus far.  
TEA! I love tea and I drink it every morning before class. 
This is the night I was homeless.  My brothers of Lambda Chi and I built a cardboard box and slept on the quad for a night to raise awareness for Habit for Humanity.

This is a decoration on my apartment door and it brings in the warm feeling of Fall! :)

This is a picture I took on campus.  I love our campus and this shows why.

I got to meet Curt Menefee when he was at Coe.

This is one of my best friends Kelly.  We have a great time together and always enjoy watching Kohawk sports.

And last but not least the reason I'm here!  I love nursing and Coe is the place to be!



This semester is flying by and it's crazy to think Thanksgiving is 2 weeks away!  I am having the time of my life at Coe and I dread the day I have to graduate because I never want to leave this behind!  This has been one of the best chapters of my life so far and I cant wait to see what the rest of the year has to offer!

Thanks for reading like always!

Nursing Visit Day

Hello All,

This coming Tuesday November 6th there will be a Nursing Visit Day on campus.  This is a day for all students interested in the Nursing Major at Coe.  I am a little bias but I love nursing here at Coe. From the wonderful professors to the 3 semesters of one on one clinical experience.  I have had the best experience ever here at Coe.  You can also still be involved in other things at Coe when majoring in nursing and that is another reason I love the program.  We are steps away from the hospital and we can even go to the university hospital for clinical.  If you are interested in the visit day just go here and register. http://www.coe.edu/departmentalvisit_registration

Thanks,
Justin Nylin
