St. Patrick's Day is probably more anticipated than Christmas. What other holiday can you celebrate by loading up on whatever you can get your hands on? Students around here are especially antsy this time of year. Eagerly awaiting the morning they can have beer for breakfast and wash up with a shower of beer.
With a last name like Disaster, you could assume that I'm not Irish. But that doesn't mean that I can't celebrate it. Back home in a nearby yuppie town they start festivities two weeks beforehand complete with a parade and bar crawl.
It's nice to see that students around here have spirit. Spirit for spirits, I guess you could call it. Attending parades, parties and bars are all appropriate ways to celebrate this special time of year. Though there may not be carols and presents, there are good times to be had.
Even though here at SHU we have a "dry" campus, I think students still do all they can to celebrate accordingly, without getting written up. So I think it's time that everyone raise their car bombs, or beers, or lagers, and cheers to a very happy St. Patty's Day.
