West Virginia... - Page 2

Oh yes.....Morgantown is huge on partying......

It's very hard not to get into the habit of going out everynight but you HAVE to avoid it if you wanna do good in school. I have a strict rule about only going out on the weekends....and the weekend starts on Friday for me not Thrusday.

I'm pretty sure that Morgantown is home to 130+ bars. A pretty large number considering the size of the town. And there's always a house party. Anyone whose been to Mo-town, has been to Grant St. That's the 24-7 party street. The whole reason WVU invented FallFest and SpringFest was to keep the Grant St. block party from happening. Of course there's some pretty awesome parties there regardless.

And of course "Frat Row" is always kickin'. I live right beside it. The boys are always outside chillin and stuff.

Everyone here is really nice too. We all kinda look out for each other. Like the other night my friend was hugging me and put his hands up my shirt and tried to unhook my bra (haha I know it sounds bad but he does it all the time and he's gay so it wasn't sexually) and a couple of guys come over to make sure I was ok. It's a good place to live and have fun. I love being a Mountaineer. Of course I'm somewhat biased since I'm a WV gal born and raised

Whew sorry for the novel!

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountain, Shenandoah river
Life is old there, older then the trees
Younger than the mountains, flowing like the breeze

(Chorus) Country roads, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
Take me home, country roads

All my memories, gather round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusky, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

(chorus)

I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get a feeling that I should
of been home yesterday (yesterday)

Sorry, y'all, i had to.

Haha! At every football game they'll put a couple of choices on the big screen and one of them is always "Country Roads." Then we cheer for which one we want the band to play. I bet ya'll can guess what wins everyime.

Yeah, you all are right, there's just WVU and no UWV...and Morgantown is supposedly a big party place but it's not that, er, pretty of a town from what I hear.

Yeah, I kinda guessed. I don't really know any DG's here, went to highschool with one of your sisters' older sister but that's about it.

There's a song about Morgantown to the tun of Rocky Top. I'll have to find it.

I vaguely remember visiting WVU and a party with honest to goodness white lightening. I thought I'd never eat again!

We get mason jars of moonshine and soak apples in it, then throw the apples in a blender with some ice-cream. It's pretty good, kind of like a mudslide, only a lot stronger.

That sounds awesome!!!!!!
My dad is from Beckley and all you ever hear up there is " Go to WVU and party...its awesome" Try going to Morehead State....we party in trailors and barns haha!!! but I love it!!! One bar that closes at 12 !!!!!

TigerLilly · #28 02-17-2004, 11:51 AM

Hmmm, I keep meaning to head up to WVU to party with my PSP brothers there -- here's even more enticement! A girl I graduated with is in the PSP chapter there. They all call it "West By God Virginia" and it cracks me up.

Kayla0deegee, perhaps I'll have to make it out to Morehead sometime, too! There's a PSP chapter there, too...hmmm...road trips!!!

I must be having a brain freeze...but PSP? Who is that?
