LETTER: Logan still a college town

To the editor:

In response to Emma Tippetts’ “Logan After Midnight”: This is in fact a sad, but true story of Logan’s Night life. The night life in Logan isn’t exactly like Las Vegas, Hollywood, or NYC.

But Logan is still, in fact, a college town full of young adults, except for the students that choose to go to their folks’ house every weekend (you lived with them for 18 years, move out already!)

One thing I learned in college was make friends, and then make even more friends, because just like the bumper sticker says, “Never underestimate stupid people in large groups.” The more the people, the more interaction between fellow students and friends, which equals awesome good times. You could even mix groups of friends with other groups, thus creating parties. Even if there is consumption of alcoholic beverages shouldn’t stop any non-drinkers. If you could make yourself puke, or I like to call it “talking to the dinosaurs,” from shooting Mountain Dew, then talk to the porcelain gods with the occasional belligerent drunk people.

If you’re worried about those fifteen different cops you saw while cruising Main street to the party, take a “Chill out and don’t worry about it” pill and have a good time, because the cops are just doing their job… right? If you get caught doing something illegal, it is not the end of the world, nobody is perfect. I myself am a proud member of the USU-MIP club. Remember there are such activities like watching “Snakes on a Plane” at midnight movies, gorilla rushing a friend’s Mountain View dorm room with 30 people and having a dance off, or just eating the greasy midnight foods at the Village Inn. It’s things like these that relieve us from our strenuous class loads, because we aren’t only here for a good education, but to live a little. Just remember the great Ted once said, “Only boring people get bored.”
