Ok future Buffs... 

This week is nuts for me! Man, between picking up extra shifts between work, two papers, a midterm, and a presentation, I'm really regretting all the procrastination I did this weekend. I'm barely going to have time to plan a halloween costume! Speaking of which... I'm so excited for halloween to be here! It's the most fun time of the year at CU. The whole thing is kicked off with the Nearly-Naked-Mile-- a clothing drive that requires you to wear at least 5 (hopefully more!) articles of clothing to the event and then strip them off and go for a run!

Waking up before noon on a Saturday or Sunday after a night out with friends may seem less than thrilling...

BUT

Boulder has some of the best places to grab breakfast that it's worth getting you and your friends' butts outta bed to check out!! 

Bonus: college town=relatively cheap places

My list of top 5 breakfast places (in no particular order):

1.) Snooze

2.) Foolish Craig's 

3.) Tangerine 

4.) The Buff

5.) Walnut Street Cafe 

Why hello! Sorry I've been so bad about this blog in the past few months, it's just been non-stop work and excitement this semester! I've been busy with the marching band, applying for (and receiving, as of this weekend) a grant to do research on campus, doubling the size of my fraternity (a huge accomplishment!), trying to continue flight lessons, giving tours, tutoring a couple students, and a tough class load on top of that! Not that it's not rewarding; it just uses up almost all of my time!

Arrrrgggg... 

I know a few posts back I said I loved the rain and it was a nice break from the warm weather we'd been having... blah.. blah... but this weekend, the rain is totally ruining my plans!!! 

The Admissions Office was going to have a kick ball competition between the Financial Aid Office and we were totally going to kick butt but since mother nature decided to let it rain and be cold this weekend.... our tournament was cancelled. Don't worry, once we play the rescheduled game Admissions is totally going to win!
