A change at WSU

If there was something that I could change about WSU, it would be the fact that on the weekends, this place is like a ghost town. Unlike most of the students here, I do not have my car on campus, making it very difficult to go home on the weekends. So, unless my parents drive over here from Columbus, I am essentially stuck here. I think that if the campus held more activities during the weekend, more students would be willing to stay and I would not be dying from boredom. During the school week however, the campus holds many different types of activities for the students, and the students seem to respond by attending these activities. If the campus would apply just a little more effort into creating more student activities during the weekend, I think it would make for an overall better campus.

If I had to choose one book....

If I were to save one book for the future generations, I would save the book The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I first read this book about a year ago and have been in love with it ever since. My mom recommended this book to me after her friends, my aunts and my grandma all read it and raved about it. So I figured it was about time for me to read it as well. It was the type of book that once you began reading it, you were not able to put it down and your eyes were seemingly glued to the pages for hours on end. The Kite Runner tells the story of Amir, a young boy from Kabul living in a turbulent time where fighting and war were everywhere. Making it by with a positive outlook on life and keeping close bonds with long time friends, Amir takes hold of his life despite the turmoil that surrounds him. It is a story of strength and friendship, two qualities that I deem very important and believe the people in the future generations should be familiar with.
