Dzhal Ovshinvo

Hey everyone! My name is Dzhal, and I’m a Community Assistant (CA) for 7th and 8th floor at Parkside.I am an international student from small Asian city in Russia. I enjoy binge watching The Office during my spare time and playing soccer. In the future, I would like to have a collection room dedicated to sneakers. I decided to become a CA because of the unique experience the job offers.

Come out to watch the most searched series on Netflix. Lets all watch it together this Halloween in our glass box.

FITNESS TIP OF THE MONTH

Training

Your weight training schedule will be 2 days on and 1 day off. That means that if you train on Monday and Tuesday, you will rest on Wednesday, then you will train again on Thursday and Friday, then rest on Saturday.

• You'll be training your Chest, Shoulders and Triceps on the same day - these are the muscles you use to push things away from your body.

• You'll be training your Back and Biceps together - the muscles that pull things toward your body.

• Finally you'll be training your Legs and Abs together - the muscles that kick and crunch.

Your weight training workouts will generally go between 30 and 45 minutes to ensure you get a complete workout.

Halloween is a time for children and grown-ups to let imaginations run wild and that can be a bit scary at times but fear and worry related to student loan debt can haunt parents and children well beyond October 31st.

In the spirit of Halloween, are student loans a trick or a treat? Many experts still contend that the financial rewards of a college/university education more than pay for cost plus accrued interest.

Student loans are a tool and like any tool, they can be used to build things of great beauty or bring destruction. It is all in how you use them. Before you borrow any money from any source, know what you plan to study, how much it will cost, and what you can expect to earn when you are done. If you have a specific and potentially lucrative plan, then borrowing may be OK, but you should still try to cut unnecessary costs to keep the loans as small as you can. If you are pursuing a less financially rewarding career or you just aren’t sure yet, then the less borrowing you can do the better.
