Lazy Dayz

It’s a gorgeous 90 degree day. You don’t want to drive to the beach, but want to do something close to campus. You have a bunch of homework, but want to take a break for a bit.

Whats a better thing to do than go sit by the pool!

I’ve been at the University of Tampa for a year already and I just now went to the pool for the first time. Why wait until now, you ask? I just never found a reason to go, honestly. My college campus just reconstructed the pool area over the summer. They put in new beach chairs and cabanas. They also made the pool 70 percent salt water, according to someone on the swim team.  The whole layout just looks more presentable than what it used to. I think that’s what made me want to go check it out even more.

You might be saying, what fun is a campus pool? Well don’t think of it as just that.

Think of it as a place where you can take some time off from reality if you wanted to. You don’t have to worry about assignments or work. That’s why many people skip class to go hang out at the pool (not recommended!!) Just lie in the sun and let your troubles disappear for a bit.

Going to the pool is also good for socializing with other students around campus and finding out what’s happening.  Lie out and start talking and listening to the others around you.

So grab your bathing suit, iPod and towel and head on down to your campus pool to enjoy a time away from homework and classes (don’t forget to apply sunscreen unless you want those nasty burns!)
