harry's

Harry's is my favorite place at school.  I love the atmosphere and the fact that you can actually sit down and have a drink, which is rare at college bars.  I didn't start loving the joint until I moved in to my new apartment this year, which just so happens to be a block from this fine establishment.  

Just on Wednesday, for example, a couple of my friends and myself went to get our eyebrows done (threaded...so painful, but soooo worth it) and came back to my place for a glass of wine.  Bonnie was hungry, so we headed down to Harry's to get a pitcher and some food.  I don't know what it IS about Harry's, but you lose all track of time.  Seriously.  We went around 5 and next thing we know it's 9:30.  Passing the time drinking pitchers, playing awesome music on the juke box (some Styx...you know it!), and having ridiculous conversations.  Like how the homeless guy was freaking us out in the bar. Yikes. Liz called him Meth Face (which is totally inappropriate yet freaking hilarious at the same time).

A few months back my friend Sarah came up for the weekend, and we went to Harry's as well after school on Friday.  We ended up staying there for over 6 hours.  It was ridiculous!! But I swear, there is some type of magical power that Harry has over us, because it goes by so fast.  As does college, sadly.

I'm truly going to miss Harry's.  It represents Purdue, and I love the fact that it is super old and worn down.  I have had some amazing memories at that place, and I'm going to make some more with the couple weeks I have left here.
