My New Favorite Thing

I am a college student, and what else do college students love more than canceled class? FREE! Gratis! All I know is that the word sounds good in any language. Now add college student+free+other cultures=International Coffee Hour! International Coffee Hour is hosted by The University of Georgia's International Student Life. Each week a different culture is represented. There is free food, lemonade, and of course, coffee. Music from the feature culture is also played. Students, faculty, and staff from all kinds of backgrounds mingle and chat together.

Even though free food is a plus, that is not the main reason why I go. I mean, I have known about this event for over two years, but I have usually had class at same time coffee hour is hosted. Now that I have the time, I put it on the top of my list because I have met some really cool people and gotten better acquainted with others. Not to mention, I now know that fried squid is delicious! International Coffee Hour is just my new favorite thing.
