OLIPOP PBC’s Post

From local acts to summer school holiday activities, here’s your guide to the week ahead in the Great Southern.

"These thoughtfully curated recipes are a practical and affordable way to find comfort and nourishment during these demanding times. Soup symbolizes a simple yet powerful element of self-care, reminding students that taking a moment for themselves is just as important as acing that final exam." Check out my last article of the fall semester for The Daily Targum!

Last weekend, while attending the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) fall board meeting, I stumbled across a store that sells something I’d never imagined: gourmet toast. Yes, TOAST! And not just any toast—it was, hands down, the most delicious I’ve ever had. I liked it so much, I went back three times during my 3-day trip. As luck would have it (more like intensive googling), I found a location 15 minutes from gym. Uhhh I trust I don't need to explain where I went after pickleballing this morning 🤔. Here’s the kicker: I’m gluten-sensitive. I knew there would be consequences, but I didn’t care. Why? Because sometimes the joy something brings outweighs the hurdles. And this post isn’t really about food, but about what it reminded me of. There’s value in returning to the things that make us happy, in being intentional about making space for joy. It also reminded me that, whether it’s gourmet toast, a morning pickleball routine, or a new book project, the things we love deserve our time and attention. We should make habits out of doing them. What’s something that you love, that you splurge for or make extra time for? And what lessons have you learned from embracing it? #ToasttoLiving #PrioritizeWhatMatters #IntentionalHabits #Gratitude

I used to eagerly wait for my school to end, now I just wanna go back School wasn't just an academic milestone in my life, there was much more I can never forget: → Waiting for the last exam to end → Waiting for the school trips and picnics → Preparing new stationary for a new class → Staring at the class schedule waiting for the PT session → Excitement of taking pasta or Maggi in my tiffin box → The sudden holiday announcement due to heavy rainfall → Watching plays and dance prepared by students on special days → Rushing to canteen for getting hot vada pav with spicy green chutney and the list may go on…. The fact that those days won't come back, teaches me the value of living in the present moment. But, I always remember those simple and innocent joys of life that often give me the strength to keep going.

We like to think of LinkedIn as the social media equivalent of the family refrigerator, often covered with art work, good grades, awards and all the things we're most proud of. We're adding this to the GIANT App State fridge: More than 7,600 undergraduate students were named to the Chancellor's or Dean's List for spring 2024. These achievements speak to the hard work and dedication of our Mountaineers: The students, the faculty who teach and mentor them and the staff who support their academic success. Congratulations to all! Let's do it again this fall semester. Have something you'd like to post to the family fridge? Add it in the comments below! 📌 To learn more about the Chancellor's and Dean's Lists and to see the full lists of recipients, visit https://bit.ly/3OH0LOy.
