Before I left for Spain, I thought of all the things that might make me homesick, and American holidays was near the top of that list. I mean, fall is packed with them - Halloween, Election Day, Thanksgiving... but now that I'm here, I realize that it is even more exciting to see how America's...

Well...a lot of fun has been had in the past week. Where do I even begin?! It's been crazy, but a BLAST!! I guess I'll start with this last week -- Halloween!! We had people over to my house and also went to some other houses around Butler. My roommates and I dressed up at 3/5 of the Village...

I'm sooo excited!! I was in Australia last year studying abroad and completely missed Halloween. Did you know they don't celebrate Halloween over there?! We tried to show them how, but it just wasn't the same... So this year I'm going all out. My roommates and I have decided to go as...

Wow, finally a second to breathe after all of this excitement! We won both games this weekend. This puts us in a great position for our conference rankings. The information on the horizon League page isn't updated yet, but I want to say these two wins puts us in 5th place! Friday's game was a...
