As I am writing this I am sitting comfortably in my living room in Georgia. Since I am not able to go home every week I cherish the moments that I do get, and this is the longest that I have had; it has been very enjoyable so far I am loving it. I was able to see so many friends from high school it has just been great within the last 36 hours, I just cannot wait for Christmas break. I just imagine it should be awesome. I say all of this to say try not to go home every weekend, so that when you do you are able to cherish the time and not take it for granted.
Buuuuuuuut Bac in North Carolina….
Lately I have been having fun, getting out and what not. My latest adventure was Savannah, GA . OMG if you ever get the chance take the football bus trips. Be sure to go with a friend or two, normally they range from $25 to $100 and everything is paid for but your food. Savannah was very nice, I heard about it of course since I’m from Georgia but my parents went there and I had a friend that goes to school down there. The first night we got there we all were hungry so we walked downtown Savannah to find something we ended up at Five Guys, I have never been there & probably won’t go back. A couple of the guys had but for some reason the burgers seemed more expensive, and to make matters worse 25ft away was burritos for $6.99 so we were all a little mad. I wanted some Savannah seafood but I settled for original River Street Sweets (website link) THE BEST CANDY IN THE WORLD. The next day in Savannah we went to the Julliet Lowe house (founder of the girl scouts), and the First African American Baptist Church; they were both great places to visit. I learned so much at the First African Baptist Church, if you ever go to Savannah make sure to go on some of the city tours because they are very interesting. Unfortunately the football team lost to a team who hasn’t won a game in who knows how long, but the times that we had in the hotel will definitely last a lifetime. I didn’t know too many people before the trip but now we are planning to take another trip with the same people.
Recently we had a lyceum with Donna Brazile. Even if a lyceum isn’t required for you-GO! Most of the time the Lyceum even feature people you would have to pay lots of money to see, but since it’s already paid for in your tuition go and don’t walk out. Lyceums are not always boring, and you have to broaden your horizon to expand your knowledge. Even though you might not be interested the person might have wisdom and knowledge that you can use and in the long run and whatever they talk about in the Lyceum might benefit you. So far I have been to two because they were required. I wish I would have gone to another speaking one but I couldn’t make it because of class. I will definitely be sure to make it to more next year.
OMG I almost forgot, I ATTENDED MY FIRST PROBATE!!! I never understood the posters but I know now! It was so very cold outside, but it was definitely worth it!!!
Homecoming week was great. I attended the fashion show, the comedy show, and the step show. Shout out to the Deltas and Alphas for winning the step show. The fashion show was good, and this semester I was with a modeling group called Paradyce. I was not a model but I was on the Social Organization so I got in for free. Be sure to join groups because they have benefits. The comedy show with Lil Duval and the other comedians was off the chain. My friend and I laughed so hard, and still used the jokes today because they definitely related to us!!!! Well more next time, oh yea and pics and videos from homecoming check ‘em out J
