*magventures @ black forest academy: a day in the dorm

The question I get asked the most is: “What does a day look like for you?” This job is a little unprecedented, and it’s been hard for me to explain — and hard for y’all to picture! So I made this video to give you a glimpse into the average day for us here at HBR. Everyday looks a little different — sometimes there are orthodontist appointments or someone forgets their lunch. I also make a point to have 2 hands on the wheel while driving ;) So I don’t have any footage of all the trips we make into Kandern to drop students off at school early or pick them up from hanging out with friends, their small groups, sports practices, etcetera. Similarly, it has never occurred to me to film myself doing paperwork or household tasks, which I often find myself squeezing into my off time in the afternoons… Ha! The rhythm of life here is very different from what I’ve lived previously, but now that I’m settled into it, I love it more and more with each passing week. It certainly helps that I am enamoured with our students and so, so deeply enjoy working with my dorm team. Because it moves quickly, here is a typed out explanation of this video. Don’t feel obligated to read it! I just thought it might be helpful to see it laid out linearly, and then you can just enjoy the video clips without scrambling to read. I also included some commentary, because I never know when to stop talking………. 0630 / Wake up, get ready.. If I’m on breakfast, I’m usually up by 5 to talk to my parents and then I start cooking around 0630. 0730 / Breakfast is served! 0800 / Waiting for the bus to arrive. 0830 / Students leave for school. 0830 - 1200 / This time is always changing. We have meetings with our team, meetings with our department.. We grocery shop, prep food, do random maintenance tasks around the dorm (our building is 300+ years old!), paperwork, etc, etc. 1200 - 1600 / This is my off time, and it kind of makes everyday feel like 2 separate days. I take German twice a week. I go to counselling once a week, and also meet with a mentor every other week. I babysit for my dorm parents!!! (So fun.) I see friends, clean, do laundry, answer emails, every once in a while I take a nap?? 1600 / We put an after school snack out and go wait outside for the guys to get home. 1615 / The guys arrive! They eat snack and then spend their afternoons as they wish. There are board games, video games, games on the court in our backyard. They can go biking, walking, swinging… We encourage them to play as much as possible! 1745 / Our dinners are provided by the school, so we go to pick up dinner at this time, along with any students that were in sports or extra curricular after school. 1815 / Dinner is served! 1900 / “Gratis time!” Or chores! Each guy has a task that they must complete every evening. 1930 / Study hours begin. 2100 / We put out all the food they will need to make lunch for the next day and they come down to pack lunch! This is one of my favourite times of the day. 2215 / The lowerclassmen hand in their devices for the evening. 2230 / We hang out a bit on their floor, pray together, and get everyone settled for the night. 2300 / Lights out in the dorm. 2330 / I usually get home around this time? Sometimes its a little earlier, sometimes its a little later. I do my quiet time, I read a little, my roommate and I pray together, I try (and often fail, because I’m so tired, SORRY EVERYONE) to answer messages, and then I usually crash shortly before 0200 in the morning. I do a lot of catch up sleeping on my days off, ha. There you have it! A day in the dorm!
