Every semester here at Gonzaga University has gone by faster and faster. I feel like I have been here at Gonzaga this semester for about 3 weeks. Now we are 2 weeks away from all going home for a month. This past Tuesday it was ticket distribution for Battle in Seattle. This year Gonzaga is playing UCONN in Key Arena. Seniors had to be at our student center at 7am to have a chance to get a ticket. There were about 350 tickets that were given out. Every senior who wanted a ticket was able to get one. However, after all the seniors who wanted a ticket got one, only 10 Juniors were able to walk away with one. Needless to say it was not fun to see all the juniors, sophomores, and freshmen who had to stand out in the cold and not get a ticket. Sorry guys!!!
This year I am flying home back to Boston a different way. I am going to head over to Seattle for the game on the 20th of December. From Seattle I have a direct flight back to Boston on JetBlue. This is awesome because the direct flight from Seattle to Boston is actually cheaper than flying out of Spokane and transferring flights. I'm so pumped about the next month ahead! This has been the easiest semester I have had here at Gonzaga. I only have one final exam on Monday and that's it. I'm putting in some working hours to make some cash for the holidays. All that means is I get to write to you guys another time before I head over to the other coast. It is always a sweet feeling to land in Boston and have my mom or dad waiting for me. My friends from back in Boston and I have already talked about all the snowboarding we are going to do.
Everyone go crazy for the Zags tonight as they take on Washington State. I'm going to one of my professors house for dinner and to watch the game. His wife is making our class a huge dinner and from what I hear, it is going to be a fun night! If you live in Seattle I better see you down at Key Arena for the big match-up against UCONN!
Merry Christmas and lets go GU!!!!
