A little bit of GREEN fun!

A few friends!

Probably one of the most fun days to be a Mercyhurst student is on St. Patrick's day.  The cafeteria has special Irish meals and it is highly unlikely that you will see anyone on campus that is not wearing any green!  Since Mercyhurst was founded by the Sisters of Mercy (who came from Ireland), we are a very Irish school!  Everyone, even those who have no Irish blood whatsoever in their veins is a little Irish that day!

Dinner at Friday's!

This year on St. Patrick's Day, after going to class of course, my other roommate that is already 21 and I went to get a drink and then we walked around campus.  We saw a LOT of people who we know a love outside enjoying the nice spring day (FINALLYYYY) and having fun in their green clothes!  That night, we went out to eat at Friday's.  It is sometimes really really nice to escape campus for a little while and enjoy some good food with friends!  But of course, many restaurants in Erie get SUPER busy at dinner time so my word of advice is take advantage of call ahead seating!!!!

Enjoying St. Patty's Day

After a very fun day on Thursday, I went to visit my lovely boyfriend at his school for the weekend.  Now I am back on the lovely Mercyhurst campus and ready for a new week to begin!  This coming weekend is the Laker Live-In and Major Day, so we will have lotssssss of prospective students on campus!  And hopefully you all fall in love with it here like I have!  I am really hoping the weather stays nice for this weekend (and the rest of the year), especially now that it is OFFICIALLY spring!
