Yesterday was one of the weirdest days in terms of weather that I’d ever seen. Temperatures over 70 degrees brought students out doors into the streets and onto the greens of campuses around Philly. People were throwing frisbees, footballs, or just throwing up from drinking so much celebrating Villanova’s final four appearance. I was inside [...]

Last night (saturday) was yet another great night out in philadelphia for me. My friends and I went to a great bar/pub/microbrewery on 15th and Sansom called Nodding Head.
We watched the NCAA games which were amazing as always and tasted at least 10 types of beer while getting wasted before heading back to a party [...]

I’m sorry I know this doesn’t have to do specifically with any aspect of college. But, I am a college student right now at Temple University and was just watching CNN when I saw this and had to snap a picture and share it:

The Northeast just got dumped with snow, giving students everywhere hopes of the coveted snow day- a day to make snowmen (or women) instead of going to class. Unfortunately, living in a city makes snow days hard to come by. Philadelphia is well equipped to deal with snowstorms. In addition, the constant foot and car [...]

It is 51 degrees in Philadelphia right now. We’ve been getting used to consistent 20 degree days. I’m walking around in shorts and a t shirt and feel like butter. Not a cloud in the sky.

Since we don’t really have any school sports to root for, the philly teams become a huge deal for most kids at Temple. The Phillies winning the world series was one of the coolest things ever. We all marched on broad street, threw rocks at swat officers, and climbed telephone poles for no reason.
