On Monday the 27th myself and some friends decided that we wanted to go to the haunted house. Surprisingly it was a fairly decent haunted house for being put up so quickly, great job GCSA!
In the last couple of events that I went to, on of the most fun was the volleyball game that the entire football team attended while playing Westminster.

Women's Volleyball Game Vs Westminister


I attended the Women's Volleyball game agaunst conference rival Westminister. The girls dropped three straight sets but they gave Westminister a tough time and didnt allow them to get the wins very easily. Us fans were loud and rowdy to cheer them on. It was a good time and I enjoyed it.

Improv Show

I went to my first Improve Show last week. It was by far one of the best events i have been to so far at GC. I was laughing pretty much throughout the entire thing. I highly recommend for others to attend the next one!

Midnight Madness

I went to midnight madness with some friends. The dunk contest was definitely my favorite part of it. Ron's dunk with the rainbow soccer kick as an alley oop was pretty legit. I can't wait for the season to get here so I can to to both the girls and guys games! I also can't figure out how to put a picture on here. Way to go me.

First Improv Show

 Here's Shawn "The Show" and I at the first improv show of the year. It was honestly hilarious and I definitely enjoyed every minute of it. We sat on the floor the whole time which made it a bit uncomfortable but I was too busy laughing so much that I forgot about being uncomfortable. Overall the show was a really fun event to go to and I am glad that I attended it.

All College Hike

The all college hike overall was a really fun experience! It was fun wearing throwback uniform jerseys with the whole mens basketball team. At first I was not expecting myself to be able to run the whole event but in the end a few teammates and I were able to run the whole 5.5 miles non-stop. At the end of the hike we ate lunch and hung out with the rest of the students. After we ended the event with chapel. Overall the All College Hike was a really fun experience and I enjoyed being a part of it the whole time.
Our first improv show!!!!!! sitting on the floor wasn't all that but the show was hilarious and everyone on campus should see it at least once

Ball Boy for lady panthers

Ball boy at the lady panther game was really an experience to the game up close and personal, Getting to see different formations and just how complex the game was.
it was really fun was to give back and help out our lady panthers
and a big shout out to Barbara on varsity killing it.
Prof Gilmore was at this game, which means he should be at basketball games !
Moment when I met my adopt a panther family the Kesters at church for the first time. During NSO the team attend church together then got to meet our families. Really great family and have been supporting me since I first met them!
This is from the time earlier in the year when I served at some farm helping to pick indian corn. At first it was fun riding on the tractor and experiencing this for the first time since I'm a city boy from Miami, but my fun was killed quick after walking through webs, and seeing spiders crawl all over the place.

Volleyball Game

My roommate and best friend plays on the GC volleyball team so I go to the volleyball games as much as I can. This picture is the game whenever the JV played Macmurry. They destroyed. Volleyball here is so much different then volleyball at my high school. Here the games are much more intense unlike my high school where no one shows up. I will obviously go to more games.
Also sorry I don't have a picture for this one either. It was sending from my phone.

improv show

About a month ago my friends and I went to the Improv show. I went to the Improv show when I came to visit back in March so I had a pretty good idea of how much laughter I would be getting myself into. We didn't have anything like this at my high school and I wish we would have because it is a great time full of fun. I plan on going to many more of their shows!
Sorry I don't have a picture I didn't know at the time we needed one.

October 25, 2014

I went to the homecoming dance with three of the soccer girls and two of the boys.  We walked to Freshman parking lot and drove over to the football fields.  At first we only planned on staying for thirty minutes because we thought that no one would show up, but to our surprise there was actually a lot of people at the dance.  I was a little skeptical of this dance, but after being there for thirty minutes I quickly realized how awesome the night was going to be. I enjoyed this event so much that next time there is anything like this I will definitely be attending it.  


GC Volleyball

The soccer team decided to have team bonding at the Volleyball game on October 24.  At 7:00 p.m. we all made our way over to the gym to support our fellow athletes.  This was the first Volleyball game I attended since I have been at Greenville, and it was a great game to watch! I had no doubt there would be a large crowd in the gym which made our cheers that much powerful.  It was definitely exciting to watch our Volleyball team dominate the game.  I enjoyed being able to spend time with the team while also showing our support for our friends! I hope to attend the next game, and continue to watch as they dominate any team that comes through.

Caleb Miles, Church Service

Last weekend I went with my baseball team to the Free Methodist church service here in Greenville. That was a new experience for be considering I come from a Baptist church back home with a congregation of about 25 or 30 people. I'm used to a service that never lasts more than an hour and this one lasted quite a bit longer than that. I did really like the worship band and the song selection. But I did not understand why they had chairs instead of pews.

Improv Show



After study tables one night Taylor Purkey, Hope Brakenhoff, and I decided to walk over to La Due to attend the Improv Show.  I was surprised to see that even though we showed up pretty early all the seats had been taken so as a result we had to get desks from the nearby classroom.  I had heard that this was a popular event, but I did not realize it was that popular.  After we got our seats we met up with some of the soccer guys and waited for it to start.  I found this event hilarious and memorable.  I do not think I stopped laughing throughout the entire show.  The only negative comment I have about the improv show is that it was a little too long.  They could have ended it earlier, but either way it was still an awesome experience, and a lot of fun.  Also, this event helped me become closer to my friends, and definitely helped me make several more! I am impatiently waiting for the next improv show!

Art Walk




On September 19th I met up with a few of the girls from the soccer team at 6:00 at the Burritt fire pit.  From there we walked to the square to attend the Art Walk.  I had never been to an Art event held in the middle of a town before.  I was amazed by the amount of people and booths that were there.  Wherever you turned there was either a place to eat, or art to be seen.  The first booth we stopped at was Set Free.  They had chalk boards set up like the one pictured above for anyone and everyone to describe what Set Free meant to them.  Not only was there food and art, but also plenty of live music.   I really enjoyed seeing all the wonderful art that surrounded me, and this would definitely be an event that I would attend again.
