October 6th, 2010 (3 days till your birthday!!)


Okay so I only took pictures one day and that was to my geography class, but this is probably my prettiest of walks so I guess it's appropriate enough to show :P And the order is all wrong because I don't know how to do this yet, I'm sorry!


So this is my final destination, Zachry. I think this is mostly for social sciences and possibly physics??? I enjoy the fountain that's in front of this building, however I didn't get a picture of it. (Sad face)

Right now I'm on top of the "hill" which is the halfway point from my dorm to Zachry.

This is the view coming straight out of the commons. There are way more bikes parked here than this picture shows, and if it's not locked, odds are someone will steal it... :/
This is our little section of dorms on the South Side of campus. If you walk straight and then turn right, you'll hit the Commons where I usually eat. (Preview: I think next week we should do the foodie blog :D)


This is inside my dorm. This picture a little extra tidbit of campus life I thought you'd enjoy! On this particular morning I was sitting at my desk, studying (cough cough *cramming* cough) for my first Biology test in a few hours. Around 11:30am (only an hour left of available study time -- the most crucial time, I think!) guess what happens... THE POWER GOES OUT! So I have to move from my desk, to the little corner and steal light from the window (Lynh, my roommate, was still sleeping so I couldn't open the blinds), but then as I tried to download a powerpoint, I realized our wireless connection was down as well, so I had to go to the noisy Commons to do my final studying. It was surprisingly productive!

Okay, sorry that took me so long to post! I'll try and become more prompt at these things from now on!

HUSKER: My daily walk to school


Here is my lot. It's a bit ghetto, but a hundred dollars cheaper than the normal commuter lots. Note the football stadium? Yeah, that's kind of a big deal. 

Above view of lot.
In case you missed it before, here's Memorial Stadium again.
Here are some nice fellows. This is right outside the stadium. See the weight room? Yeah, that's not the rec. That's exclusively for student athletes. A bunch of big guys were in there today. I SO wanted to take a picture of them for you. Oh well.
There's the ped bridge we just crossed. By now we're about halfway to class!
Some nice pillars.
Now, this picture is here for two reasons: 1. Our clock tower is really lame compared to yours. and 2. This lot? Prime real estate. Faculty parking. Runs at about $1000 a year. (Mine was $300)
And on our right is the NU Coliseum where the vball team plays, also connected to the Rec Center for normal people. And from there, my building is just a block further down on Tuesday/Thursdays. About a ten minute walk!
 And there you have it! I was hoping my first post would be a little more impressive, but it was kinda rainy today so it was very point-and-shoot. What you got, little sista?!
