After being cooped in a car for two days and having stomach pains for most of the five days I was away, I'm back in my humble abode.

Okay, so we left here on Wednesday about 7-ish. We stayed overnight in Alabama, then the next day we got to NC about 8-ish. We (my mom, brother, and I) ended up staying at my stepgrandfather's place. He lives out in the boondocks. I am serious. Mom and I couldn't sleep because it was just so DARK out there. No lights at ALL.

The next morning we got up early and started on the road to Elon. Well, it took FOREVER to GET on the road because near our old neighborhood, they are doing MAJOR highway construction, so we got stuck there for 35 minutes. Then my mom wouldn't listen to me and we had to go this long way around to start GOING there. Once we got to the town, we got lost. Thing about Elon the Town is that it's kinda in the country. We took this long ole backway, then we found the school.

Well, the weekend was mostly for people who have already paid their deposits and everything, and well, I haven't. But I still got to go on the tour and stuff. The campus is really gorgeous. They filmed parts of the movie He Got Game there. I was semi-checking out this guy in my tour group from Raleigh. He was tall and really gorgeous, and I talked to him a little bit but never said my name or anything. I found out that Maroon 5 is going to be at the college on May 8 (!!!! MAROON 5!!!!), so I'm all jealous now. After the tour, I went to a seminar-type thing for communications--what I want to major in. It was really informative and interesting, but at the same time I found myself getting scared and not knowing if I was ready to go straight to college in fall.

We left the college about... 5 o' clock. We got back to Durham about 5:30, and we ended up going to see my dad's mom. I hate to think about it, because she's getting really sick and she has lost SO much weight and looks horrible. It's so depressing and sad, and I couldn't take it. I ended up leaving and walking up the street to see my godmother. When we were done there, we went to try to find my cousin Bryan, but he wasn't home. We got back to the boonies around 10 that night.

Yesterday we left the house about 7:30, and we got to Meridian, Mississippi about nine that night. We got up late this morning and left the hotel at ten. And we got here about 7.

This is basically a really brief wrap-up, but yeah, that's basically all that happened.

Oh, and last night I had ANOTHER dream about Kevin. I don't get it. I looked up his phone number when I was at my grandma's, but when I called it, they said the number was disconnected. I have this sick urge to talk to him, and I don't know why. I wish I knew what happened to him.

I'd be kind of creeped out if someone i knew in sixth grade looked up my phone number 6 years later.

i dont even think about people i knew that long ago.

Sounds like a fun trip. I'm sure you'll be ready to go to college when the time comes and it's totally normal to be a little scared now. I would be too.

Meridian! Did you drive through Hattiesburg? You were like an hour away from me. Hee.

nah, we just took 20 all the way through. I have been that route so many times that I have dreams and nightmares about it. Sad, no?
