For my visit to Albany I got to drive out from Boston, instead of my usual flying. After a nice Thanksgiving break, I picked up a rental car and drove straight across Massachusetts and into New York for my last chapter visit of 2014. Albany isn't too far from the Mass border and the route is basically one highway so I enjoyed the mini road trip!
It was a pretty quiet visit. I had meetings and caught up on a lot of work from before the holiday. All the women live downtown so I did not spend much time on campus. When I finally got to explore the Campus Center, I found it was a lot bigger than I expected. There is also a cool fountain outside the Campus Center, but it was turned off for the winter.
The last night I was there, the fire alarm in the apartment I was staying at was going off and couldn't be turned off. They ended up calling the fire department to take care of it and five men showed up in full gear. Since it didn't seem serious, the women were all snap chatting it. They finally got it figured out around 2AM but it was all pretty funny.
After a nice meeting with the director of Fraternity and Sorority Life, I hit the road for my three hour trip home. I was happy to have an easy drive on the empty road because it was a great time play my favorite music and belt it out. I also spent some time reflecting on the ending semester. I cannot believe how quickly this fall passed by! It feels like fall recruitment season just ended and now it's time to begin planning for those winter recruitment visits. There were so many great parts of this fall and I am so looking forward to what the spring semester has in store! But first, I'm ready for a nice break and spending the holidays with family and friends.
Good luck on finals, all, and happy winter break!
