have been quite involved here at UIS. I'm involved in Blue Crew, and I'm currently sad that the year in athletic events is ending- or, it has already ended. . . I should say. I had a blast going to sporting events and cheering on the UIS Prairie Stars- it didn't matter if it was soccer, volleyball, or basketball. The games were always a lot of fun. The oddity, though, was that more attendance centered around the guys events than the girls events. To this very day, I'm stilli having a great deal of difficulty figuring out exactly the reason why that seems to be the case.Also being involved in Christian Student Fellowship is a lot of fun. It's just like going to church; however, the worship is student-led. We also have a minister who comes to campus for the weekly CSF gatherings, which is great! I have had a chance to be involved in a lot of CSF activities here on campus, and they have been a lot of fun. I enjoy getting to know a lot of new people, and taking part in a lot of new things.Tonight- after CSF- no matter the weather, we are going to make s'mores outside the Housing Commons. Luckily, the weather is warm enough for this particular event to be held outside- with a bondfire, as well as good friends; junk food, and more. However, this event might end up being altered a bit if it begins to rain. We wouldn't want to be outside, making s'mores- and get rained on. That wouldn't be fun at all.

My Interesting Life As a Student
- Nico Echols
- 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.
