Snow Days at Their Finest

More. Snow. 
If you didn't hear, Fayetteville got about 2 feet of snow last week.  Crazyyyyyy.  They said on the news that in 4 hours, we got 3 years worth of snow!  I also heard that if we miss 3 more days of class, it's considered a national disaster and we get tuition money back!  How sweet would that be?  I'm not getting my hopes up though...you know how these things go.  Belle (my car) hasn't moved in 13 days.  I've probably done at least a couple of months worth of sleeping in, brough-eating, and movie-watching in the last 2 weeks.  It really has been relaxing to get a break from school and spend some qt with friends.  However, I probably couldn't be more excited about the weather this week.  It's supposed to be in the 60s almost every day!  PTL for chacos and starbucks.
On Friday, I got to spend some time with my wonderful friend Randa.  I miss living with her.  We went to the mall, almost broke some bones slipping on the ice, almost got into a wreck, made the traditional stop at TB, and went through her closet at her apartment.  It was definitely a Friday night well spent.
Yesterday, Kel and I took a road trip to VB.  We stopped at A to Z in Alma, as well.  A to Z is like nothing I've ever experienced before.  I can't really even explain what it is. Here's a pic:

  Anyway, we went into the Sporting Goods one and it's basically the redneck version of Bass Pro.  There was this sketchy waterfall thing with the nastiest fish I've ever seen in it.  I'm pretty sure they were growing mold.  We also visited some sweet shops in downtown VB.  I got a really awesome book about Hong Kong.  It has some pretty legit pictures and I'm sure it'll be a great read as well.  Then, we went to good old Chili's with Kel's dad.  Man, he's great.
EXCITING NEWS ALERT!  We're for real going to Savannah for Spring Break!  So basically, a life goal of mine will be fulfilled in just a couple short months.  We'll also be hanging out in Charleston, SC on the trip.  I just love love love old south things.  I can't wait to road trip, see the mossy oaks, eat at Paula Deen's restaurant, and who knows what else.  About 10 other friends will be along for the ride, so I'm pretty positive it will be epic.
Also, this week I got a package with my t-shirt for this summer, support envelopes, and a bunch of other stuff.  I don't think it's actually hit me that I'm going to be in China this summer.  Weird!  I think one of the parts that makes me so nervous and excited at the same time is the fact that I don't know a single person that I'll be spending my summer with.  Sometimes I just really like not knowing anyone or knowing what to expect.  Kind of like I decided to come to U of A even though I was clueless, and look how that turned out! I was definitely nervous the first few weeks of my freshman year though. Of course I'm positive that God will again provide this summer, but it's still a little scary to think about.
I feel like I just vomited all kinds of information everywhere.  But that's all :)
