A Small, but important, victory

I have been very interested in letting my fans ask me questions, find out more information, learn more, independently of the Message feature in Facebook. It took me all summer. It drove me up and down dead ends and cul-de-sacs that were scary and invasive. But, two weeks ago, a great person SK, came to visit and said he thought he could track down some web site that would help me out. SK followed up with an email two days later with 'the link.'

I played around with a super secret hidden fan page (two fans total) before I launched it on WoodysFans to make sure there weren't any hidden bugs; and finding none, went to work.

I kept adding to the features, beyond the basic questions and I hope it is not too long. Take a look, ask some questions, send me a comment. The goal was to make Woody as responsive as possible.

Fall 2010 Workshop Schedule

Boy oh boy. The GPS LifePlan Fall workshop calendar was released today. There are so many good one hour classes to take.

If I attend the Getting it all Done-Time Management on September 27, 28 and 30th, I could get to the Procrastination (Oct 12th) class on time! I will not miss the Campus Recreation: Where the Wood Ducks Play (Oct 13th) for the life of me. I could text you about this, but better go to the Texting: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (Oct 14th) to find out more.

My eyes are drawn to FREE MONEY FOR COLLEGE: Century College Foundation Scholarships (Nov 3), but better go to Writing Your Resume (Nov 12th) too.

See you there. Well, you better check out out the schedule yourself.

First Day on the Blog

Well, no one ever said being a duck mascot is easy. In fact, at times it is rather hard. Nonetheless, it is the best job I've ever had. Where else can one represent a great school at a lot of places. Everyone wants to get their picture taken with me. And, now with the help of this blog, I can help students get through college even more.

Send me a note. What would you like to see here? I can use more space here than I can on Facebook.
