Welcome to 32nd and Chestnut...

This is the blog for 75 or so Drexel students, most of whom are new to college and new to Drexel.

We'll document the strangeness of college life, try to translate our experience for diverse readers, and chronicle what it means to be a college student during these crazy days of economic turmoil and political battle.

That's it for now; I have to go an play Spore.

College Living

I thought I new what to expect when I got to college, from hearing about it from various friends and family members. But now that I’ve lived on campus a little over a week I realized what they all forgot to tell me. How completely free you are. You can do whatever you want, go wherever you want, and eat anything that I want to eat. How I don’t have to tell my parents everything about my day and my night like I did when I was still living at home. To me it was on of the greatest feelings in the world how independent I had to be and wanted to be. I loved the feeling that I was in control of my day and what I did.

Through out the past week some friends and I have gone out around our campus as well as UPenn’s, and I just love it. I love that we can just go out and walk a few blocks and I can get whatever I need from food to entertainment and everything else. I am really enjoying campus life and living in a great place with all new people.
