With such a beautiful campus and warm weather it's almost impossible not to go outside and work on your homework. You would think Eau Claire's campus was built around the mind set that students in twenty or thirty years were going to hammock outside of the dorms and by the academic buildings. Although I would much rather be doing anything but homework, it is nice that I can sit outside in the sun and work on math homework and study for economics. Over the past two weeks I have taken full advantage of the gorgeous scenery here in Eau Claire. So far I have gone cliff jumping at the bluffs twice, tubed down the Chippewa River twice with a group of friends, hiked the bluffs, and laid outside during my free time. I definitely love it here and have no intentions of switching school at the end of the semester or year. Hopefully the weather stays warm so I can continue to explore the new city I call home.
