My College Experience

So because I wasn't here for sociology class on last Friday, Mr. Smith has asked he to write an extra blog. Why was I not in class? I left school early (sorry Mr. Smith) so I could go visit my girlfriend at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. So I'm lazy and instead of driving 5 hours I took a 30 minute flight and an hour bus ride. Of course I get so excited to see my girlfriend when I get there that I get off the bus and forget my suitcase. It drove off with it so for the first hour I was with my girlfriend (whos name is Danielle so I'll just call her that from now on) I spent trying to get a hold of my suitcase. I finally got it back and the weekend began. She showed me her dorm, which at first I thought was small but then I got to thinking of all the fun stuff I could do with it. I could get bunk bed and then there would be so much more room for activities! But anyways, she introduced me to some of her new friends and then we walked her classes. Let me tell you that if you think traveling in Stevenson high school is bad...just wait till you get to college. I think I walked 4 miles in total. That night we went to a couple parties which was pretty fun but then we just got tired and walked back to go to bed. For the rest of the weekend I just basically was like a college student having fun on the weekend. It was really fun and I'm glad I got to experience it. The sad part is that 3 days later a student was killed after he was hit by a car crossing the street right next to where Danielle's dorm is. I crossed that same street three days earlier. Scary Stuff. You should always live life to the fullest!
