An opportunity to de-stress is The resident assistants of South Hall welcomed their girls of all ages, academic years and majors to de-stress by coloring Nickelodeon pages.
Residents had the opportunity to chat, socialize, have fun and color their stress away on January 23, for the event known as “Coloring Day”.
Multiple resident assistants credited came to the conclusion that the event came from the popular and common love of coloring that has popped up within the last few years.
“I really love coloring.” Brittany Westervelt, one of the resident assistants who came up with the idea said. “It helps me de-stress and I hoped that it would have the same effect on some of our residents as well!”
According to the residents, Westervelt’s and all of the resident assistants’ hope was met with fun enthusiasm and lots of laughs as the day transpired.
“I just love to color because it’s fun,” Rosalie Wagner, one of the participants of “Coloring Day” said with a smile. “It’s a good was to take stress off, and I really just think it’s fun.”
Of the handful of the other enthusiastic artists interviewed, the majority seemed to share Wagner’s opinion in the enjoyment of the day due to the fun, laughter and break away from busy schedules that all could be found at the front lobby of South Hall.
“Coloring Day” was just one of the many events the dedicated resident assistants put on for their girls every month to create bonding, fun and lots of laughter that will become memories to cherish.
All residents of South Hall and their friends are encouraged to come and take part in the numerous other events the resident assistants put on throughout the year. There still are four months to go to add splashes of color to the semester!
