Fall time at ONU

It's crazy to know that October is already here. Fall break is 8 days away which means the semester is already almost half over! The leaves are changing colors and already starting to fall which means.... it's crunch time... literally :) Classes are getting more in depth and being my juinor year this is really exciting. Being a pre-physical therapy major my favorite class now is Therapeutic Exercise and Rehabilitation... which is pretty much what I'll be doing for the rest of my life! Other than having homework to do... I just finished (by losing) in intramural co-ed soccer... our team was legit! However, when the play offs started we didn't have any subs and one of our players had just given blood at the blood drive here at school... and the team we had to play against was the ROTC team (who are in way better shape than us)... so to say the least- we lost :( It was a sad day... but it was still a lot of fun to play! Next week starts intramural flag football (for guys and girls!) I'm super excited to play since I've never played flag football other than in a high school gym class. Another sweet thing I've been doing every Tuesday is going to watch a friend of mine coach a local high school soccer team. So me and a couple of my friends have been going to his games and cheering him on.
October 23-25th is Homecoming here at school... and we just found out the top 10 guy and girl nominees for Homecoming Court which my SISTER was nominated for! So I'm really happy and excited for her... I'm hoping she will make top 5 along with another one of our close friends and a girl that we know since high school youth group! So Homecoming is an exciting time of the year, a lot of people come back for the basketball games and football game and it's a fun time to hang out with friends. Also this weekend is our first Purple and Gold Days of the fall semester... so that's always exciting to have prospective students come out and hang/stay the night and take a trip downtown to Chicago for some Chicago-style pizza and Starbucks :) So... I highly recommend Purple and Gold days if you're looking for some good pizza and fun times hanging out with current students of ONU!
