Hi Belle’s,
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.

I can’t believe we have Week 10, Finals Week, and then Spring Break. AHH!! And then back to Spring Quarter!! My oh my!! A lot of exciting plans happened last week. :) I grabbed dinner with a couple of lovely belles (Ava, Anaïs, and Julissa) and friends! Hosted my last social for the quarter, which was so much fun (thank you to Sahar and Alexia, who attended) <3 I went to Boiling Crab 2x in a week with my friends and camp friends (don’t do that to yourself) and had stomach aches (thank you to Ava, who gave me TUMS)!! I have issues with CAE and UCLA housing, which is so fun! I’ll give you guys the update next quarter on if I get kicked out of my dorm or not hehe :) Lastly, had a get-together with my current roomie, my former roomie, and our friend! We went to Abbot Kinney and Venice Canals and it was so beautiful there! It was a great way to end our week before week 10 & finals week!
