Artisans

Syracuse University is the 10th largest party school in the United States. Sixty percent of students go Greek (meaning they join frats and sororities), and since this is a three day weekend, things get down if you know what I mean.

I bet you can guess how I spent my Friday night.

That's right, I went to the Learning Community Palooza in the Goldstein Auditorium with my RA and two guys from my floor. I am in the Creativity, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship Learning Community. The Palooza is a get together for all the learning communities at SU to mix, mingle, and spar in inflatable jousting. The event was catered by Dinosaur BBQ and we had one heck of a time.

Aiyana was repping the Education LC 

Afterwards, I chose not to roam the streets in indecent clothing searching for frat boys but to head downtown with a group of friends. "The Artist" was playing at the local art museum and there were busses transporting students to and from campus. Here's the perk: the movie was being projected on the side wall of the art museum and the whole event was outside. There was free popcorn too! A draw for me!

Check out this awesome set up! We had front row seats right behind the pond

Overall, a pretty cracking Friday night. The party scene will always be there, but a chill night watching the best picture of the year is a one time thing. After all, I'm not one to degrade myself by dressing up in tight, short clothes (or lack thereof) and seven inch high heels. Syriously? High-five for self  respect! 

TOMORROW WE SCREAM FOR THE ORANGE TO ANNIHILATE NORTHWESTERN WITHIN THE WALLS AND TENTED TOP OF THE CARRIER DOME. FIRST FOOTBALL GAME OF THE OVERLY EXCITED FRESHMAN! HUZZAH!
