food pantry 1/27/10

this week at the food pantry, we had less people come in than usual. i feel that ther are less people because there were so many the week before whom i helped. by doing this, i think that i am helping them more in this poor economic state.

greek club 1/27/10

this week in Greek club, we are preparing for a quiz that will take place next week. we will be tested on vocabulary that we got this day. i feel that i will be well prepared for this quiz because i have now memorized the pronunciation of all of the Greek alphabet.

food pantry 1/20/10

this week at the food pantry, i noticed that there were less people than usual. this trend may be because there are a few more jobs available, or that they aren't spending as much money on heating since it is warming up for now. i feel that i can see certain trends in the economy by volunteering at the food pantry. also, there are more people who are volunteering to help with the pantry, as well as donating food. i feel that this can be attributed to people feeling compassion and sympathy in this economic state we are in.

greek club 1/7/10

this week in Greek club, we had a special guest who came; he was the first student in the Greek club that graduated in 2005. he is now a language major and he showed us how Greek was suppose to be pronounced and how it sounds. Greek had now gotten harder to me with the pronunciation, but i think that i can do it if i spend some time learning the accent and breathing marks.

food pantry 1/6/10

this week at the food pantry, there was an abundance of people again. usually there is nt many people at the beginning of the month, however, this time there were over 30 people by the time i left. again, in this hard times, i feel that people are going appear more since the economy is so bad and the money that they get goes towards heating.
