If you are a West Chester University student, like myself, then you are probably counting down the days (or minutes) until you are back roaming the streets of West Chester. It has been way too long since you hauled yourself to that dreaded class in Main and too many Friday nights have passed without you stumbling down walnut's deadly sidewalks in search of friends, pizza, or both.
Three weeks remain until syllabus week. Here are some typical WCU things you'll be missing until then.
1. A quad full of familiar faces on a Wednesday at 2:00 p.m.
2. And those guys doing Parkour.
3. Chris's, Riggtown, Amore. (Whatever, I believe all pizza is created equally.)
4. Almost getting hit by a car on Church Street and always hoping it's a West Chester bus (because then, duh, free tuition).
5. The impending anticipation of Homecoming.
6. Two words: Food. Trucks.
7. Crowded High Street on a Saturday night.
8. That one guy who holds the door open at Main for a solid 10 minutes.
9. Ending a good work out on the terrace at the Rec. (Don't forget your T-Shirts... How long is this no tanks thing going to last?)
10. John (from Einsteins), Diner Dan, Baker Bob, that lady at Classic Comforts in Lawrence always calling everyone baby.
So, in these final weeks, relax and enjoy, nap freely and without responsibilities, and dream of the possibilities of Fall '16. See you soon, fellow Rams.
