When you enter college it seems like everyone has the same mindset. The one thing always on your mind is either, boys or partying. You still feel like you're being forced to go to class and get an education. I can picture it now Its syllabus week and your phone is lighting up with the typical questions, "You going out tonight? Where's the pre?" I have been a victim of these text message and still am on an occasion, but when you grow up a little you realize that the college scene might not be for you. FSU is in a huge bubble and sometimes people stay in the bubble the whole time and some pop it. Let me tell you this bubble is no bigger than a 5-mile radius consisting of the typical; Clydes, Standard, Recess. Yawn. Been there done that...a lot. Don't get me wrong here I love to drink, but what I don't love is being trampled in a cubical called Standard. Those days are behind me. Then what else is there to do? If you're looking for a more laid-back way of spending your days/ nights you've come to the right place.
1. Taco Tuesday @ La Fiesta.
If you are sick of your usual taco Tuesday place this is the place to be. They have a great band that plays every week. $1 tacos and BOGO margaritas! Its always a great time and the ascetics are great, outside under a lime tree (how much more festive can you get?) with white Christmas lights draped around them.
2. Poor Paul's.
What some people might not know is that they give out free pizza every Sundays and Mondays. Plus they have $4.50 pitchers! Talk about a cheap date. They have pool tables and dart boards and even a hockey table. My advice for all the ladies out there: schedule ladies night on Tuesdays because, you guessed it, ladies drink free all night long!
3. Bear Paw.
This is by far my favorite thing to do. It's a three-hour float down a river in a raft. It takes about 45 minutes to get there, but I promise you its worth it.
4. The Wilbury.
Do you love BBQ food? Live music? Games? Cheap drinks? The Wilbury is the place for you. There's a different vibe to this place than most. Its a unique place with unique people which I love. It's a great place to branch out and meet new people.
