Possible future Clemson students in front of Tift Hall
admit it, you know you'd want to go to war with this
country any day of the week.

Ooh friday the 13th scary, not to mention last night i stayed in room 213. the weather was insane today, it rained while it was sunny, the wind blew in all directions, my car got hit by at least 2 and a half million tree branches on the way home, and the there's this supposed rainbow over my house telling me everything's gonna be ok. Oh goodness.

So the Clemson trip was definitely a lot of fun, certainly worth missing a day at good ole rhs. Here are some reasons why I, your fabulous correspondent, and you, the magnificent reader, should consider attending the fine institution of Clemson University for your post-secondary education:
1. The Clemson tiger mascot is VERY friendly, particularly with redheads who attend women's basketball games and make positive comments on the tiger's New Balance tennis shoes.
2. Clemson ice cream. The Food Science department makes their own ice cream and sells it on campus. Man i wish i had a picture. the ice cream is amaaaaaaazing, not to mention i got the biggest-assed double chocolate chip waffle cone and it set me back a startling 62 cents. ILOVECOLLEGE.
3. Tift Hall's bell. I have no idea how often it plays but someone today must have felt the need to have a serious jam session on the bells and it was nothing short of incredible. Cmon, when was the last time you heard "Bohemian Rapsody" played from a clock tower?
4. !Ashley's mom will come with you!

I mean those are just four of the many reasons. As for me, i was hoping this trip would help me decide once and for all where i wanted to go, or at least rank my choices. Truth is, i'm just as confused now as when i left.

The downside of the trip: having to sit in between ash and jen in the backseat for over 2 hours each way. i'm not knocking them at all, it was just a generally uncomfortable situation.

The upside of the trip: having our own hotel room for once. Muchos gracias to ashley for taking care of business in her parents' room. Yes there was a very loud mexi-party supply truck that woke us up in the middle of the night, and yes there was a "damn" funeral party getting ready to go to Wal-Mart (which was conveniently located across the street, by the way) but we had some majorly dorky good times in the room. Curious? Don't despair, dear reader, i will surely have pix of this fabulous occurrence in the near future.

Until then, I'm going to call some random people who won't be expecting me to call them tonight and try to find something to do. Because, despite my efforts all 20 things i could have done tonight fell through and now here i sit on my computer. Don't worry, i'm resourceful.
