Off-Campus Experience This Weekend

Since I've been at UIS, I haven't had any experiences where I actually left the state for an event. The only time I went off campus for a few hours was in February. Blue Crew had gone to McKendree College to watch our UIS Prairie Stars play the McKendree Bearcats in basketball. Does this experience really count as a travel experience, even though it was only for a few hours- and we returned the same night?
This experience is going to blow that "little road trip" right out of the water. This excersion will be longer, and more people will be going. Really- there will be a lot more people for such a big event- probably more people than I have ever seen in my entire life.

My Interesting Life As a Student

Springfield, Illinois, United States
I'm living in Springfield, but I'm originally from Chicago. I am now living in a group home for people who are visually impaired. Living at the Mary Bryant Home has been a huge step in my life. I am now able to get involved in activities every day. I am making lots of new friends, and I'm enjoying living with my new family. Since I'm the youngest person, I feel like I have lots of parents and grandparents, and even my best friend, who is like a big sister, to spend my time with. I don't think I'd change this for anything else in the world.
