The center mandala of education is knowledge. The center mandala of knowledge is wholeness within spiritual creativity.

"The possession of spiritual serenity is the key to knowledge::

The spirit within you is laced

with colored electricity. Filled with

words just scratching

to be touched by pink light.

Gypsy elephant

come alive, dance with your

fear covered spears and fight

with your tower flowers, for inexplicable

Existence."

This is a poetic thought I recorded in my feelings journal while pondering the question of what is education to me? Education is taking all of the elements from a person’s psychic self and nurturing them in a way that will increase their spirit into an individually functioning being. Ultimately, being educated in the world’s cultural intelligence in a way that is personally interesting. Walking through the poem above, the elephant represents my spirit animal symbolizing fortune, strength and stability. The excerpt, “dance with your fear covered spears and fight with your tower flowers,” expresses the idea of using negative experiences for positive reinforcement and using the towering floral design of my cotton candy persona to ward off negative ideas. Education should be taught and participated in a way that brings forth, thus enhancing a person’s unique aura, as well as balancing one’s chakras for full electric existence. This can be done by providing tools and support for a student's specific passions and interests. When we enhance and build up our passions in a way that expresses talent we are then able to see the entire in a way much different than before. When this happens it allows us to appreciate and bask in different schooling subjects through an individually artistic outlet. This will ultimately increase educational growth because of the way the full blossoming of one’s spiritual creativity matures our knowledge. Mentioned in the poem above is the idea of the spirit being infused with neon colors and surrounded by light, this is the symbolization of one’s soul. Below is a prose titled Magenta, my aura color, describing my own creative spirit.

"My magenta fused psyche is the root of all the knowledge I obtain and how I interpret that into education. I was able to accomplish that through the way my mentors nurtured, stressed, and inspired my ego to mature in a way that could reshape the world’s reality into something different that positively affects my learning and spiritual growth.

The center mandala of education is knowledge. The center mandala of knowledge is wholeness between spiritual creativity. Education is taking each element of a person’s psychic self and nurturing them in a way that will increase their spirits into an individually functioning being. Ultimately being educated in the world’s cultural intelligence in a way that is personally interesting.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
