This past weekend Emily, Callie, and I took a road trip to Sewannee, Tennessee to visit some friends. We were so excited to get away for a weekend right before all the craziness of Mardi Gras was to begin. All of my friends at other schools take so many road-trips to see each other and we decided this weekend would be a really fun time. We had so much fun! I had never been in the car for more than 5 hours, and thought I was going to go crazy before we even arrived, however it was not bad at all! We had so much fun on the drive up and it was so great to see so much of the country, I had never seen before. The only Southern states I have ever visited or been to are Florida, New Orleans, and South Carolina (which according to many true southerners are not the real south.) We passed through Alabama and Mississippi and many other places I had never been to before! It was so much fun just seeing the country and so different to see how so many other people live. There were so many animals, and farms, and beautiful houses, like broken down cottages, it was all just so different. When we got to Sewanee it was so cold and snowing, and ugh! I though I was going to freeze to death! I hate the cold and was wondering why I would have ever decided to drive 7 hours to freeze? However, we had such a great time, and although I would never ever want to go to a school in such an empty area, I can definitely respect all the beauty we endured and had seen. The 7 hours flew by so quickly, and I am so happy we decided to make the trip!
