Back to the Boro

This past weekend, I took a trip back to the Boro (Georgia Southern). It was so hot there that you would break out into a sweat just going from the car to the house. I spent a lot of time with my old roommate while I was there. We went out to eat and watched movies at the house…. after the power can back on that is. Around 6’oclock or so it got really dark and started seriously storming. The storm knocked the power out for at least an hour and a half. It was good seeing and talking to him, it reminded me of old times.

<>I took a little joyride around the Boro to see if there was any new stuff that had been built while I had been away. They look like they’re trying to build the little town up. They’ve added some really nice apartments down there (much better than the one I stayed in). There were some new businesses there as well. I couldn’t tell if they were going to make it because there was like no one down there at all (students).

On Sunday I walked around the campus a bit just remembering all the things that I did while I was there. I remember the first night I stayed in my room my freshman year and what that fist moment felt like to be out of the house. Memories of me and my girlfriend meeting up for lunch, going to see free movies or watching the baseball games, and running in the rain to get to class. I can’t forget all the late night I spent at the library trying to study for a test or the cold morning that I walked in for my first class at 8. I was kinda taking aback from it all. I really did enjoy myself down there and it was harder to say goodbye than I thought.
