Football & Fall Break

Hello all,

I cannot say how nice it’s been to just RELAX this weekend! Monday and Tuesday are fall break for BU, so a lot of people went home Friday afternoon. It was quite a sight to see- there were literally SIX Peoria Charter busses lined up in front of the student center Friday afternoon. 

Campus has been pretty dead. Fortunately a few of my fraternity brothers chose to stay in the house over break, so I’ve been spending time over there watching movies and doing NOTHING, which for me is a rare thing. Don’t get me wrong- my activities and my involvement on campus is a satisfying and fulfilling part of my college experience. But there comes a time when you just need a break, a rest, a chance to catch up and refill yourself. Whether that means physically, spiritually, emotionally: you just gotta relax sometimes! 3

And let me tell you, nothing relaxes me like watching the Ohio State University Buckeyes play football. Sure, it’s exciting, but it makes me proud to see my favorite college football team kick some butt! (My apologies to any Illini fans reading this, but I AM from Ohio…) 

Tomorrow is Columbus Day, which means there’s a huge VISIT DAY!!! Over 700 people are going to be on campus, a fact I am very excited about and kind of scared too. It’s only our second visit day, so it’s going to be a lot of fun. I even get to give a tour again! Yay! 

Well I really should finish this paper…but ESPN is showing highlights of the OSU vs. Purdue game…
