Lot Full

Last night I went for a long walk. It was not on purpose. I had been visiting a friend and got back to campus at about 10:20 last night. I drove around for 30 minutes looking for a parking spot and after circling the parking garage and every parking lot on campus for the 27th time, I resorted to parking in Strahan Parking Lot. Although it was a very nice night, I was not in the mood to walk 10 minutes to get back to my dorm. And, I was a little more ticked off since I still can't walk very well from having my knee surgery and it was killing me last night.

I understand that there is only so much room for Texas State to build and expand, but honestly the parking situation is really starting to get on my nerves. I think it would be freaking amazing if they could build at least one or two more FREE parking garages. I don't know about anyone else, but I am the typical college student who gets excited when I find $3 in my pocket so I can do laundry this week. I don't have the money to be forking out $8 or $9 dollars every time I NEED to park somewhere. Normally I am not so negative about the parking situation. I do not mind parking on campus and walking 5 minutes to get back to my dorm, but last night really just got to me and frustrated me.
