Week Three 🔔🩷
President
My agenda keeps deleting! (If I ever have a blank agenda, just assume I had one and it got deleted. Just FYI.)
So, let me try and remember what I had written:
No GM this week (week 3) because of the holiday.
Next week during GM (week 4) we will be brainstorming about how we want to approach our CO efforts regarding the LA fires.
During week 5 GM, we will have an awesome guest speaker.
Heads up, during week 6 GM, we will have someone from the career center giving us a workshop on networking and personal branding. I ask that everyone wear Belle Attire for that workshop.
No GM week 7 because of the Presidents’ Day holiday.

Hi Belles, I really have no words for the past week. I am sending all the love and light I can to each and every one of you. I hope you are all doing okay given the circumstances and know that I am here if you need to talk or are worried about anything to do with BBSA. But remember, the priority right now should be to focus on your wellbeing. I look forward to see you all at Week 4 GM.
This weeks GM has been cancelled due to the holiday but as always, for meeting attendance credit make sure to fill out the attendance form shown on the projector at GM (and if you come in late, please find me afterwards). Remember that missing GM without filling out the appropriate form (either attendance or recurring/non-recurring excused absence) will result in a penalty. Also, please remember to submit proof to the W25 Event Attendance Tracker after participating in any event for any office. To check your status in fulfilling credit, refer to the W25 Event Completion Sheet.
In addition, please fill out the W25 Recurring Conflict Form if you plan on missing multiple GM’s due to work or school. Additionally, if you plan on going inactive for the winter quarter, please fill out the Winter Inactive Form. Due to recent events, the deadline for both forms have been extended to are due by the Sunday of Week 3, January 26th, at 11:59 PM (this is a hard deadline).
All of my Belle love (and then some) - Jess♡

Hiii you beautiful Belles! Happy Week 3! I hope you all are healthy and well. My heart goes out to everyone who has been deeply affected by the fires <3 Hearing that my former school, Palisades Charter High School, was partially burned, along with some of my favorite places and my friends' homes being fully destroyed by the fires was heartbreaking. It truly made my heart sink to the floor. I’m always a text, call, facetime, and meetup away if you ever want to talk. Pleaseee don’t hesitate to reach out!
Sending SOOO much Belle Love to you as always,
- Annalyn! ❀
Welcome back belles (again)! I know the last 2 weeks has been incredibly chaotic and overwhelming, so please reach out if you want anyone to talk to or just be with. I hope you are all safe and have the resources you need. I have been up in the bay with friends doing online school which has been a nice silver lining. I also called my ex boyfriend (who lives in DC) last week after no contact for almost 2 years and he told me he still loved me LOL. Anyway happy week 3!? We are all here to support you in any way you need it. Sending soo much love.
