A night off and some cowboys...
Let me just say how much I am loving travel in St. Louis! The students are great, the counselors are great, and living at home is WONDERFUL. It’s been a little weird to be back, and I’ve run into a lot of people I know or whom I know through someone else. Its crazy how many connections can be made simply but growing up in St. Louis! I had a night off last night-YIPPEE NO FAIR!! So I took my dad and we went to the movies. My mom and dad don’t like the same types of movies, but my dad and I do, so it made sense to go see a movie my mom wouldn’t-- 3:10 to Yuma. Now, I’m not a big fan of westerns, and hadn’t really been able to sit through one for as long as I can remember. But this movie is great. I mean truly, I was really impressed. Russell Crowe and Christian Bale have an awesome chemistry together (it seemed as though they really and truly liked each other) and the whole idea of the movie is entertaining. Guys on horseback, lots of gun-slinging and the idea of good vs. bad (no gray area here!) gave me a new found appreciation for Westerns. If you get the chance, go check it out. I will warn you though, it’s a little violent—it does, however, fit in with the plot and makes for a good action movie. And truly, who can resist Christian Bale and Russell Crowe sharing the screen?! Yes, yes I know...typical girl comment... *insert groans here*   

 

Since I am traveling, it seems like a perfect time to mention to any students reading—please come say hi if you are interested in Butler! For students that want more information about Butler, this is the perfect time to visit and come say hi. That’s why we are out on the road for 4-8 weeks during the fall…to give you all information about our school! I promise that we are not mean, or intimidating. (I know that I’m DEFINITELY not!) We want to be able to help in any way we can, so stop by the Butler table or the admission counselor at your school. J That’s my plug for the day, now I’m off to finish emailing some students, dinner and a college fair. Catch y’all on the flip side!
