When you arrive on campus four days before classes start, you’re greeted by something that looks a little like this:
You know it’s bad when you can walk from Epi to Village A and not see a single soul cross your path. Except that squirrel digging in the dirt. Hey, squirrel! Wanna hang out?
As lonely as it is without all of you here on campus, having the Hilltop to yourself does have a few advantages:
1. There’s no problem finding open tables on Lau 2! But wait, I have no homework to get done.
2. No homework! No classes! No rules! But no one to go out with.
3. I can pass the time with hours of Netflix! But I was already doing that for the last 3 weeks.
4. I can build a snowman out of the snow that’s already melted.
5. I can appreciate the architectural beauty of Lau.
6. I can write a blog post.
7. I just wrote this blog post.
8. I can… I can…
I guess there are only so many things a girl can do when she’s got a whole campus to herself. And I’m pretty sure the pipes in my apartment have never made so much noise as they did last night. It just goes to show how much Georgetown is really made by the students who are here. Georgetown is an impressive place with big, beautiful buildings, but it’s just not the same without the people who make it tick.
So hurry back to campus, Hoyas. John Carroll and I miss you!
