Looking to Next Semester

As the closure of my first semester in BOX draws near, I would like to reflect on what possibilities lie in wait for the next semester. First, it is important to recognize the departure of one of our roommates, Brett Tewksbury. His collegiate exercises have compelled him to traverse to Italy for his 2nd semester of his junior year. I anticipate that Brett will meet some woman overseas and completely woo her with his suave looks and charm. This will be a significant loss for the House, but we fully intend to keep morale high. In fact, I dare say at least one person in the house will be pleased. Zola will be leaving his frozen abode in the basement in search of new shelter in Brett's room. Another change due to Brett's pilgrimage to Florence is Peter Mattes' promise to secure his job at DG, a sorority on campus. How Peter will be received in this atmosphere is yet to be seen, but there ought to be little doubt that it will constitute some change. Both him and the other senior in the house, Brian, will be moving on to bigger and better things after the conclusion of the next semester. They will be dearly missed. Al is "excited to still be enrolled at this University" for the next semester after a lackluster performance this semester. Brick's life will surely remain in a similar haze of drunkenness for the second semester as it has for the previous 5 semesters of his college career. However, both him and Andy will turn the legal age of 21 next semester. This could lead to an even higher frequency of inebriation. As for myself and my roommate Matt I wish I could tell my readers some tidbit of excitement in respect to our next semesters, but I have been unable to think of anything noteworthy in our largely unexciting lives.

If you are a reader, please visit us next semester, because while tailgating season may have come to close we surely will continue in our quest for questionable life choices.
