Welcome Back

The first week back on campus was wonderful! The Associated Students had a variety of events throughout the week, including free Sonic, free Jamba Juice and free basketball jerseys, which helped make the normally stressful first week more relaxing for students.  My classes were very interesting, and the scheduling of my classes is nice.  This is because USD makes scheduling very easy for students. There are many different classes and times available, so getting a schedule that suits your lifestyle is simple. Don’t want classes on Friday? Done. Feel like sleeping in until noon on Tuesdays and Thursdays? Easy.  It’s possible to make a schedule around any goals you may have, which is a commodity many colleges can’t offer.

As for living in San Diego, the benefits haven’t been better.  The weather is a point that I don’t want to beat to death, but…WOW. I left KC when it was around 10 degrees, and when I got off the plane it was 74 degrees in America’s Finest City. The PGA tour is having a tournament at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, featuring stars such as Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson. I’m making my way up there on Saturday to take advantage of being in such a prime location, and on Sunday I will most likely be at the beach before I study for the upcoming week. Life in San Diego is good.
