College Life

Throughout my first week of school there were many times when the opportunity to not have class and have a good time came up. First of all I moved in four days before classes started. Second, I realized I only had class a maximum of three times a day, and even had a day when I only had to show up once. This quickly led to a problem of me asking myself what to do. I was in a new city, that previously I had only spent a day in my entire life in, and knew no one. So I set out to find something fun to do and quickly made some friends with people who had common interests with me. One such group was a bunch of guys who liked to go play football at Buckley Green. Which is a field used by club/intramural teams and for impromptu games. It was a great time being able to go play a fun game of football. I had played football in high school, but I wouldn’t call it fun. Practices all year and long days where I constantly wished I was somewhere else. Now don’t get me wrong, I like to play football, but not at the price of my free time. So being able to go play a pick-up game of football is something I call a good time. I found myself at Buckley a lot. While there, I enjoyed playing the game I love instead of practicing it. Also, it gave me a lot of new people to meet and go do other things around the city with. Some of whom have become my closest friends here at Drexel. All in all college has been great so far. I have never been sitting there looking for something to do, I have never been bored, and I have never not had a good time. It’s awesome.
