CONCERTS

Going to concerts is a great way to have fun at Purdue. Being on a college campus, you can find concerts anywhere. They can range from concerts at coffee shops to concerts in someone’s back yard. Usually at these types of concerts they have many artists performing so that there are varieties of music for everyone to like. At local concerts, you can meet new people and discover new music. In this particular concert, I had a lot of fun. I enjoyed the music, met the band as well as new people. This was a night that my friends and I are sure to remember. people.

SLAYTOR HILL

If you’re looking for a nice and quiet place to have fun, you can always go to Slaytor Hill. No matter what time of year it is you can always have fun. In the Winter you can go sledding and among Purdue students, it’s a personal favorite. In the Fall, you can always warm up a cup of hot chocolate and a get out a blanket and go star gazing on Slaytor Hill. Personally, that’s something that my friends and I do quite often. It’s a great stress reliever.

GREY HOUSE

Grey House is a great place to relax and hang out when you don’t want to go out. Other than having great food and bever-ages, they have local artists come and play while you drinking your coffee. Other than going to Grey House for shows and hot chocolate, I go to Grey House to go and do homework when I want to get away from distractions at my dorm. Grey House is always a great place to go when you just want to have a relaxing fun time. fun time.

MOVIES

Watching movies in your dorm room is something that you can do basically anytime you want. If you want to have a lazy day, movies are a great way to do it. What makes it different from a movie theathre is that you can watch whatever movie you want. You can watch Disney movies, scary movies, funny movies or any one of your favorites. My friends and I always end a busy day with a late night movie. No matter what the stresses were, they all go away when we watch our favorite movies. It’s always nice to get comfy in your pajamas, pop some popcorn and relax.popcorn and relax.

KITCHENETTE

Baking is a fun way to feel more at home when you’re away at school. Even though people might think it’s hard because you need to buy ingredients it’s ok. If you live on campus, you can buy your ingredients from the Boiler Junction or the Tarkmart. The great thing about baking is that you can make all of your favorite reciepes that remind you of home. My friends and I love to bake. Everytime we get a chance, we always get together and bake.

WIIGAMES

Playing Wii games is a great way to have fun. Many people can play at one time so it’s something that can be done with a group of people. One game that is really fun is Michael Jackson the Ex-perience. Basically all you do is dance along with Michael Jack-son and sing to the songs that he sings. It’s really fun to watch people dance to this game becuase since Michael Jackson was a great dancer and could do moves that most people couldn’t, it’s funny to watch others try and attempt them. My friends and I have had many laughs and good times with this game.

PAINT POTTERY

Painting pottery is something that is always fun. You can just sit and paint something for yourself or for your family. While painting, you can listen to music and munch on some popcorn. My friends and I always have a blast there. Painting pottery allows you to be creative and allows you to do whatever you want. What I really like about pottery is that you can paint anything on what you’re painting and no matter what it is it will still look good.

One of the first things that most freshman do at Purdue is go on a fountain run. This usually happens during BGR week. During a fountain run, you run to and through all of the water fountains on campus. There is always cold water running through the fountain so it’s a great feeling. During the summer, going on a fountain run is a great way to cool yourself down. Considering that I live in a dorm that does not have air conditioning, I went on fountain runs quite often. Even in between classes, its nice to just sit outside by the fountain and get things done.
