SPRING is SPRINGing!

I am in an amazing mood.  Why, you might ask?  Because the weather today is GORGEOUS.  It is currently 60 degrees and sunny, and thusly I am writing this blog outside.  How could I not?  That would be unlawful!

I absolutely love how good weather affects people's personalities.  Everyone just seems nicer the past few days!  Too bad it's gonna rain Wednesday evening to Sunday--oy.  Luckily I'm going home Saturday morning, so I'll miss half of it!  ish...

But really, it's gorgeous.  It's that perfect middle-ground weather where it's neither blustery nor humid and gross.  You can go out in a long sleeve shirt or a tee and a jacket.  Though there are some already donning shorts and tanks and whatnot--that's overkill, in my opinion.  It's gonna get PLENTY hot down here in the District, we don't need to rush the sticky yucky mess of summer.

So this time of year is heavy on GW info sessions and tours.  I love seeing prospective students taking in the campus and surveying the scene.  It's funny how on a day like today, you can just about guarantee the kids on the tours are gonna come here, or at least have GW as one of their tops.  It's astounding how weather affects people's perception of a place.  Conversely, on rainy sub-par days, you can be pretty sure that the kids on the tours will NOT want to come here, or they'll need more convincing.  My advice to you is: if you visit Gdub on a less-than-beautiful day, COME BACK!  or I dunno... GoogleMaps the campus for a while.  You may catch us on a day like today, and we'll show you our merits!

Additionally, it is not imperative, but highly suggested, that you do learn frisbee before coming to college.  I meant to do that last summer but failed miserably, and now I regret it!  I'm rather jealous watching people out in U yard pulling their sick moves.  Though many of them are probably on the ultimate frisbee team and just showing off.  That's what I'll keep telling myself.

Oh well, those were my musings.  Keep up with the emails!  ShireenS@gwmail.gwu.edu
