Oh the beautiful weather

So as I'm sure you all know, today was an absultely BEAUTIFUL day outside. At first, I doubted the weather man when he said it was going to be 71 degrees because I haven't felt warmth like that since spring break. However, the weather man made me a very happy girl! When I walked out of the gym at 10:00, it already felt like 70 degrees, and the day hadn't really even started (I consider the afternoon the real start of the the day). Unfornuatly, I had to work at 12 and then go to class at 3. I was sitting through a lecture in Romantic Lit and I could hear a bunch of guys outside being loud...it made me very envious because I was sitting in hot class, attempting to pay attention. After class, when I walked out of St. John's Hall, I couldn't believe what I saw! In front of the library there was about 50 kids just hanging out. On the Great Lawn tons of guys were playing football and other games. I was just so excited!

For the first time in like 5 months, the campus looked like a real college campus. My suitemate and I took a walk around campus just to check it all out, and I was seriously amazed. It looked like everyone finally came out their dorm rooms to enjoy the sun. It's crazy how the winter keeps everyone inside. The dorms are so icky, and being cooped up is quite miserable. I liked feeling like I was really at college. In movies, you always see tons of kids walking around campus, and socializing. The St. Johns Campus never looks this good. Yay for the beautiful weather! I'm in love :)

I agree, that was on of the best days of the entire school year. On that day, the weather was wonderful and did transform the campus. My roommates and I agreed that it was just like the first week of school. My favorite part of that day was all the people at the basketball court. Being that I'm a huge basketball fan, it was very exciting for me to see the one on one games out there. Some games were more exciting than others but for the most part they were all fun to watch. It’s great to see one of your friends play for pride in front of a large crowd and get a victory for themselves and others. I look forward to more warm days like this one so that there will be more games to watch and enjoy.
