So, this week being the Feast of St. Francis, I have really begun to reminisce about my days at Franciscan University. Yes, it is a bubble, but being out of the bubble has shown me that life is alot easier and brighter in the bubble, where for some reason being surrounded by thousands of Catholic Students and Families, makes prayer life and focusing on the positive easier. I lived with 7 other girls in a huge house that cost us each.....waitforit......$125 a month. Yes, that is not a typo. "The Hill" was the climb we made every morning, and downtown Steubenville held nothing. But, all friends were a short drive or walk away, and house nights consisting of The Bachelor, and people dancing to music in front of the TV, tanning in front of the house while studying for finals, and having our morning coffee together make me miss my life at FUS. Woodlawn Girls, all our friends, Liptaks, everyone! We miss you and think of you often! Plus, I met my hubby there, and there my life changed forever. Everyone wanna move back and live in Steubenville the rest of our lives? We can live like college kids again and not work, or work 10 hours a week? You think the student loan companies would give us yet more loans to just be perpetual students? Wouldn't it be nice? Just food for thought, we need a reunion soon!!
