Gavin DeGraw and David Cook

The Outdoor Adventure Program at USD has a ton of great opportunities for students to do things around the San Diego area that they normally would not be able to do.  This week, I had the opportunity to canoe to an area near Humphrey's By The Bay and watch Gavin DeGraw and David Cook.  Best part, the event was completely free.

Now, I'm NOT outdoor-sy at ALL.  I like to stay indoors, naturally.  So, the idea of this seemed a little out of my norm.  However, I have to say that this is probably going to be one of my best memories at USD.  Honestly, when else in your life are you going to use a canoe to paddle out across the bay.  From there, find yourself in a little cove where a live concert is happening right in front of you.  It was magical to say the least.

I'm hoping to go on another one soon!  To check out more of the other activities that Outdoor Adventures has, here's a link..

Torero Spirit

USD may be a small school, but what we lack in size, we make up for in spirit.  This week was filled with crazy, spirit filled events to pump students up in anticipation for the Homecoming game against Davidson (who we destroyed!)  On Friday night, there was a sickkk, FREE concert by Eric Hutchinson and the White Panda.  Eric Hutchinson sand great acoustic music, but the White Panda absolutely dominated the night.  That was definitely one of the best concerts I've been to in my entire life.  The music was pumping and everyone was dancing.  It was amazing!  

Prior to the Homecoming game, there was also a Homecoming tailgate for alum, students, and parents.  Our sorority, Alpha Chi Omega, had a luau themed booth with tasty snow cones!  We also had a beautiful mural for people to take pictures in front of.  Through our booth, we were able to connect with past Alpha Chi's and hopefully future ones too.  We were also able to visit the booths of the other members of the Greek Community.  It was a nice event and a great way for everyone to be connected here at USD.
