My SALSU experience

The only Thursday night SALSU event I have attended was Cosmic Bowling night. It was held about three weeks ago at the Riverside AMF Lanes. I went on a whim and when I got there I was surprised to see all my friends and so many others. We had to wait in line to get in, hoping I was one of the first 100 persons so I could get a free glow stick, but was sadly not. The event was cheap, which is always a good thing for a college student.
I had never been cosmic bowling before. It was dark and light colors were illuminating off of people's clothes. Everything looked neon, it looked pretty cool. It was packed with people. Every lane was full when we got there. Some lanes had only three people other lanes ten to twelve people. It was so loud and crowded. My boyfriend and I would just walk from lane to lane stopping by lanes where our friends were and just talked. I had put on bowling shoes and wanted to engage in a full game but never did. We found a lane and the moment we left to get a bowling ball a whole other group had taken it.
I still had lots of fun mingling with friends, taking pictures and enjoying the atmosphere of it all. I didn't stay till the very end but my $2.00 was well spent and I had a fun time. SALSU does a good job of finding weekly activities for students to do since La Sierra in infamous for being "dead" on weekends, which doesn't bother me at all. The events are cheap and fun and a lot of people attend, more than I anticipated, which makes for more fun! SALSU really enjoys what they do and the PR does a great job of getting the word out and getting students excited for events. I hope to attend many more while here at La Sierra.
