Let me start this off by saying that it finally feels like fall. It's lovely. As I look back on all the time I have already spent here, I thought of all the things that I have learned in the past few weeks... thing I wish I had known before I started school. I don't want to leave everyone in...

[I had a spiffy video to go with this post, but as I'm experiencing technical difficulties, we'll just pretend that you watched it and you loved it. I'll add it in later if I figure it out.] Labor Day weekend. Appropriately enough, we rest on the day that celebrates labor. Actually, who am...
I’ve had so much fun at all of the welcome week activities! Its so funny because people that I’ll have only talked to for two minutes at playfair will run into me all the time. I feel like I already know a bunch of people even though we have only been here a few days. Its so nice to feel like a community...

The first few days of Welcome Week blazed by. I didn’t get to blog much because I was so busy, but I’m sure everyone can relate to that feeling! It really has just been so much fun! Saturday night not everyone had arrived, but there was a social for all those students who had moved in. We played the...

This morning when I woke up I forgot where I was. As I sleepily scanned the room I was thinking, “Wait, my room doesn’t have a mini fridge. Why are there so many fans? And I definetly don’t sleep in a bunk bed!” Of course, I soon deduced that I was in my very own dorm room here at Butler! Move in yesterday...

It is far too late to still be awake, but here I am at 2:12 am sitting on facebook. I’m just so excited and nervous and scared for tomorrow.

Some of you may be familiar with the kinds of facilities we have here at Butler. One of my favorites is the Health and Recreation Complex - aka the "HRC". It has a great pool (with a lazy river thingy!) and jacuzzi, upper running deck, workout machine floor, free weight floor, basketball courts...
