Okay, here are the updates for Spring Break:
Started early, Friday before break I left to go to the Farm in Tennessee. That was a blast, definitely one of the best times I've ever had! It was not what I expected at all. The Hippies actually wore tie-dye for one thing, they also were more modernized than I thought. The food was awesome, I would not mind being a vegan if I could eat like that. They assigned a young guy (about 23) to be with our group, his name was Ramone and he was born on the Farm. I did Yoga! It was pretty great. We ended the weekend with meditation, and an 8 hour drive home.
I spent Sunday night at Sigma Nu, in Bjorn's room to be exact (he was gone for the week). Then got up and met my Psych. professor who drove me to Jackson, we then flew to Orlando from there. On Tuesdsay we went to Sea World, without the Honors College or us paying at all. It was the same deal with Busch Gardens and Discovery Cove, it was all Dr. Kucjaz's connections. We were able to go behind the scenes at Sea World at interact with the animals and meet the trainers. I fell in love with the Psuedorcas, or False Killer Whales, and have since decided that I will do all that I can to get that job. But the next day we were to Busch Gardens, but me Paul and Eli slept in and missed out on that. But the next day we went to Discovery Cove and got to go behind the scenes there as well. We then went to the airport and flew back to Jackson. I hitched a ride back with my Dr. Kucjaz again and then drove from H'burg to Mobile.
On Friday, I helped my mom move into her new classroom and hung out with the family. On Saturday, I went to Pensecola and hung out with Laura. We went to the beach, near Fort Pickens. Had dinner, which her mom did an awesome job on, and watched Garden State. I then moved back into the dorm today and resumed my normal routine of surfing the internet all day.
All in all, it was a really good week! Can't wait to go back to either the Farm or Sea World. I'll post pics later, too tired right now.
