Day 19!

Blah blah, nothing exciting to report...


Today's topic: Something you miss.


It's an understatement to say I miss Andy.  So instead I'll write about something that is a little less obvious.


I miss Aggieland.


It's silly, but absence truly does make the heart grow fonder.  While I was there I was just looking forward to finishing college.  I definitely made the most of my four years though, and I wasn't looking forward to leaving College Station, I was mainly looking forward to a school-free life.  Well, not even that, just a test-free life I guess... Anyway, while I was there it was "Oh it's SO hot, it's SO humid!" or "It's too conservative!" - What? I just didn't fit in that way...


Otherwise, I did love it.  
Great school  - a pretty campus; despite its shortcomings (Is Vision 2020 still around?)
Great people - well, MY friends (sorority sisters, dems, etc.) were great people
Great traditions - Whoop! Howdy! Gig 'em! Midnight Yell! Muster!
Great bars - mostly Northgate 
Great restaurants - Blue Baker, Martin's, Christopher's, Freebirds...and many more!


In addition to all of that - it's where I met a lot of my favorite people, like Andy! So yes, despite my better judgment, I miss Aggieland.
