Free Time

 This past weekend I finally went to my girlfriend's college which is Miami University, located in Oxford Ohio. I left on Friday and got ready for the big 5-hour drive ahead of me. On the way, I stopped at the University of Purdue to see one of my friends from home and he showed me around the campus. He also showed me the frat he is a part of which was really cool to see the different types of college life. After about an hour of visiting, I got back on my way to Miami. I ended up arriving at around 11:30 at night and we just spent the night in because I was so tired. The next day, we wake up at 11 for this thing called Beat the Clock. It is an event at a bar that sells very cheap drinks but gets more expensive as the hours pass. After we spend about 2 hours there, we head to another bar where I play pool with all my friends that also go to this college. I should also mention that 2 of my other friends who go to Ohio University. I was so nice to see everyone and have a great time. After we leave the place with the pool tables, we head over to a frat house where we hang out for an hour or so. The only thing I did besides meet some people here was throw around a football with my friends. 

Next on the agenda was dinner. I was so happy we were finally getting some food because I didn't have any breakfast or lunch. We decided to go to Chipotle and I devoured it. After the great food, everyone was tired so we all parted ways. my girlfriend and I go back to her dorm and take a nap to get ready for the nightlife. The nightlife was just how I expected and it was also a lot of fun. I stayed out until 1 because I had to make the 5-hour drive back to school. On Sunday, we said our goodbyes after should showed my the south side of the campus. Overall, I had a wonderful time at Miami and cant wait to go back.

Week 2

         This picture was taken when my friends and I went to Chicago. This was my first time going to Chicago so I was super excited and was ready to see what the Windy City had to offer. To start off the day we had an early practice so we were all ready to go by 12 and had the entire day to do sightseeing. We head off to the train station and take the 1 hour train ride to the city. Everyone was asleep for almost the entire time because of the practice we had in the morning. Once we get to the city, we walked along the river for about 30 min until we got to downtown and got to see some cool stuff. The first thing we saw I think was some sort of playhouse square looking area. Playhouse square is a very popular place in cleveland (where I'm from). The next thing we saw was the Trump tower. It was very cool and i didnt even know it was there. I also took some pictures of it and some pictures of the area. Moving on, We were on the search for some shoes. I wanted to leave the city with

Week 9

     So last week my Girlfriend came to visit me and I was super excited because I hadn't seen her since I left for college. She flew in on Friday morning and I had to pick her up at 8 a.m. which was pretty early for me because I had to get up before 7, but I didn't care. Unfortunately, I had class that day so I could really hang out with her until after 1 p.m., but after that, I showed her around the campus and we got some lunch from the cage. After that, I had practice from 6-9 or something like that. After practice, we went out to Fat Rosie and got some very good Mexican food and then we walked around Downtown Naperville for a little bit before going back to my dorm.      The next day we slept in and we decided that we should go to Chicago and see what going on over there because we don't get to go to the city often. We ended up going to the city with my friend and his girlfriend and we drove there and had to pay for overpriced parking. We should have taken the train whi

Week 8

 Week 8 of college and I finally have gotten into a good rhythm with school and soccer. Last week my mom and grandparents came to visit me from Ohio and we had a great time. We went out to dinner in downtown Naperville and I might have had the best mac and cheese ever. I forgot the place's name but I will take my girlfriend out there when she comes to visit this weekend. I haven't seen her for a few months, so I'm sure we will also have a great time.  The friendships I've created are becoming stronger, which is good because I was kinda nervous about leaving my old friends behind. Most of my friends are on the soccer team but I'm slowly making friends outside of the team so I don't think I have anything to worry about. However, soccer hasn't gotten any better. I'm still on the reserve team but I've been getting more and more minutes each game and I'm scoring a decent amount.
