Casino Night

I just got back from CASINO NIGHT!!!!!!!!! It's this one event at DU where, yup, everyone gets to gamble-with chips given by the school, of course.  After gambling, we get to cash in our chips for raffle tickets.  Though the prizes are slightly lame, there's still that thrill of winning something or even just having the chance to win something that gets people extremely excited. Well for some that is.  Others, who could be called gambling enthusiasts, just come to gamble and don't care at all about the prizes.  My friend Tim is one of those guys.  He won big and kindly gave me a couple of chips when I ran out.

A few of my friends felt that last year's Casino Night was better than this year's.  We couldn't figure out why.

One of my friends who no longer goes to DU was there tonight!  It was so great to see him and hang out with the guys for the night.  Apparently there'll be a new chair for the computer science department and my friends are a little stunned.  Kevin and Jeff and I didn't feel like going to sleep right after that so we went to Submarine Tender (Sub T).  Food wasn't all that great, based on Kevin's sub which he said was worse than Chartwells' and my average fries and shake.

Sidenote: Now that I think about it, anyone off the street could come in and play if they knew it was tonight since there are no ID checks.  I don't really care about that possibility because it wouldn't be such a big deal to me, but it IS possible.  All you would have to do is walk onto DU campus, find a flyer and then come.  Is that weird?

It's nice to have the couple friends I have here at DU.  It's not easy for me to relate to a lot of the people here, but I expect that good things will come if I keep trying.
