Day 344 and 345: Apple Blossom

There are several party festivals that are commonly talked about such as Mardi Gras, cherry blossom festival, or cinco de mayo, but the party that makes this city famous is Apple Blossom. It's a time of festivals, parades, fireworks, and lots of parties filled with an abundance of college behavior. This isn't a party school but when it's time for apple blossom, school shuts down (literally closed for a day) and kids just go crazy for a weekend which oddly usually falls right before finals. In my opinion, they should wait till after finals and people can celebrate, but people by then are focused on going home. While I'm not a partygoer I'm not a party pooper so I'm not going to pass judgment on the people that did really stupid things during apple blossom but my apple blossom was fun too even without the parties. I watched different versions of the wizard of oz such as the original, the muppets version, and the wiz which is Motown version. I did laundry, enjoyed a double feature at the Alamo, took several naps, and watched Netflix. That was my idea of the perfect apple blossom and I had a blast. You can spend your time however you want as long as you're safe and smart. How will you spend your apple blossom?
