It is beginning to look a lot like CFAW. Yep folks, it is that time of the year again when the population of Liberty University grows by a significant amount of overly excited high schoolers. Twice a semester at LU, we welcome prospective students onto our campus to live the Liberty Life for a weekend. In light of this wondrous occasion, here is a list of CFAW extravaganzas as explained by Tim Hawkins.
1. Finding out that Tim Hawkins will be at Convocation
Not only will Tim Hawkins be making our stomachs hurt from excessive amounts of laughter, but he will also be recording for his next DVD.
2. Realizing how early you need to get to Convocation to get a good seat
Having a 9:20 class has never been so stressful.
3. Having to tell the CFAWs that you also have no idea how to find classes in Demoss
*Follows one arrow on a sign*
*Finds sign that has an arrow going the opposite direction for the same room number*
*Gives up and wanders around aimlessly until room happens to unhide itself*
4. Seeing how long the line is to get into the ROT
I just wanted some pulled pork and corn bread...is that too much to ask for?
5. Trying to look approachable and friendly as they arrive
CFAW: Let's do everything and go everywhere on campus!
LU Student: *Tries not to think about the three tests, two papers, and 19 discussion board posts that are due in four hours*
6. Hearing that the CFAWs want to get up three hours before they need to be anywhere to get ready
I have never seen so many hair dryers, hair straighteners, curling irons, lip glosses, eye shadow pallets, foundations, eyeliners, and eyebrow pencils in my life.
7. Carrying the CFAWs luggage up to their room
I thought they were coming for three days, not for three weeks.
8. Trying to relax after all of the chaos on campus
It is nice to sit back and relax after all the events, games, concerts and classes.
9. Trying to find a parking spot within five miles of the dorm
CFAW: when getting a spot in the pit is actually a celebratory event.
10. Hiding to get ten minutes of peace and quiet
Sometimes ten minutes is all you need to remain sane.
11. Bidding adieu
The moment we have all been waiting for or perhaps even dreading, the anticipated departure of these lovely College-For-A-Weekenders.
As the school year goes on, let us remember to stay focused on the Lord, our schoolwork, and whatever else winds our watches. Stay safe during CFAW2016!
