This week was another stressful week at Purdue. Exams and projects and meetings and thinking ahead and sometimes I just need more hours in a day! But on the brightside, Halloweekend is finally here!! Thursday night, I went to Theta Chi’s Haunt the Acres and it was actually scary. My friends and I did not think it would be scary. Why? Because it was just in a house; how freaky can they make it, right? WRONG! It was modeled after an asylum and the boys of Theta Chi and girls of Delta Zeta outdid themselves. People were jumping out of nowhere, masked men were following you, someone with a chainsaw made an appearance and there was even a girl pretending to be the girl from “The Exorcism of Emily Rose!” Add fog machines, creepy background music and flashing lights and my friends and I were doing our best to get through the house as fast as possible!
But anyways…
I have decided Saturday mid-mornings will now be productive. Usually I reserve all school related work for Sundays but I’m turning over a new leaf. So this morning after slowly waking up (Friday night was a late night), I walked over to Subway for breakfast with some friends and watched the football game. At first, I was torn. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to root for my state or my school. Every time Michigan scored I sang the fight song but every time Purdue had a nice play, I did the whole “Boiler Up fist pump” motion. But, towards the end of the game, I just gave up and watched the game. Now I get to do homework and look forward to Halloween parties and costumes. Yay Halloweekend!
Highlights From the Past 48 Hours:
-witnessed a hawk attack a squirrel not even 7 feet from me
-rode the Nightrider Friday night after a costume party (the scene looked like something from an LMFAO/Katy Perry/ Ke$ha/Lady Gaga music video
-got a package from home
This week was pretty stressful for me as well. I'm glad that Halloween is this week because it will be a nice break from normal. It has always been a fun holiday for me, I love seeing all the costumes and the decorations. I also love this time of year with pumpkins and fall leaves and apple cider and of course halloween candy. Its funny to me that so many people dress up here and that it is such a big holdiay here, since at home its not quite such a big holiday. I have enjoyed seeing people walking around in costumes. It will be interesting to see what the rest of the weekend will hold.
ReplyDeleteIts definitely nice to have some time to do homework on saturdays because then I have some more time to other things tomorrow.
It sounds like you've had a good weekend so far and it should be interesting to hear about the rest of it. Have fun! engl 106
