St. Patricks Day & A-DAY

Hey Aggies What's Goin' On?! It's Me Ya Favwite Aggie, Ya Irishman, Ya Bracketbuster, T.J. Comin' at chu again with another post so Check Me Out!!!

I hope all is well with all of you (my readers)! Let me first start off by saying Happy Spring!!! Spring has definitely Sprung up here on campus. This past week as all the students returned from spring break, there was snow on the ground on Monday but by Wednesday it was 60 degrees and above! What can I say its all about LOCATION here at USU!!! I just learned that USU main campus is 30 minutes away from several different hot springs, and nearby are seven national parks, and ten ski resorts! Talk about nothing to do!!!
This past weekend I was able to celebrate my St. Patty's day talking to my mother on the phone! It was great catching up with her on her BIRTHDAY! Being so far away from home has definitely made me miss being there a lot. I am always reminded when I get the chance to talk to incoming or potential students who complain that Utah State is TOO FAR AWAY. If I were from Utah I would jump at the chance to go to one of the best universities in this nation! A lot of current students that I've talked to say they feel very independent while up here at Logan (Main Campus). Yet they can still make it home on the weekends to see family, or to celebrate Mom's birthday =(. Today I had the chance to talk to several members of the incoming freshmen class and was able to give a testimony and share some of my experiences here at USU. I can't stress how much I LOVE UTAH STATE!!! A-Day = AGGIE Day was great. I'm sure a lot of students are as pumped as I am about coming to USU and other who were on the fence are now sure that USU is their future home!
