My trip to Alabama

Mon Feb 11, 2008, 8:39 PM
I went to Alabama for 4 days and I have 1 word for it. AMAZING. Me and my mom went actually and we took my car. My car is what you call a 'gas guzzler' it gets 17 mpg and no it's not a SUV its a Mustang GT. I went shopping the day before , such fun, so I went to the Gamestop to buy a game for the PSP or Nintendo DS for the trip and saw that Devil May Cry 4 would release the next day, I asked about putting a pre-order on it and they said sure and then I asked about holding it for a few days, they said no, not even if I bought it before hand! I put my $5 down and bought a game for both PSP and DS. Final Fantasy tactics for the PSP and Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2008, yes I'm a nerd and love card games. Any who we left at 1:00 PM after picking up Devil May Cry 4 and headed off. Good old mapquest helped up along the way. But the first road it gave up was closed due to roadwork, no detours. Long segment short we get on the right road at about 3:00 PM and we found it in South Carolina. South Carolina is just like North Carolina just, well to the south. When we got to Georgia it was immediate construction as soon as we passed the line. We drive on the same road for about 2 or 3 more hours and my mom said she was tired so we stop at a motel for the night and do the rest the next day. We hit the Alabama line at 11 and the first thing I saw was the mountains. I fell in love with the mountains. During the whole trip I didn't read nor play a game. I just was fasinated by the landscape. It was really beautiful. Anyway. When we finally got to the motel we were to tired to do anything so we stayed there. The next day I had a campus tour of the University of Montevallo. I thought a lot of people would go one it but I was wrong. 3 people including myself. A girl named Savannah and anouther girl but I don't recall hearing her name. The tour guide was named Brooke I think, she majored in English and Education. She was really smart, she knew a lot about the campus and all. I was impressed. We looked around campus and saw the dorms and cafeteria. I truly fell in love with the school. Good thing I was accepted haha. Then a admissions dude named Monte talked to us and he was cool. He gave us a kickass Montevallo falcons back sack thing, I don't know what to call it but it kicked ass. He said we could meet the president if we wanted and I did. Dr. Williams, he is from North Carolina actually and I may be related to him, my mother's maiden name is Williams too. But I didn't ask about that. He was awesome he told me about the school and asked what I was majoring in, History with a minor in philosophy, he said he was impressed by that but I don't see how. I went to college night and I loved that too. It was just awesome. Purple's play of 'The great washington caper' I think it was called was amazing and Gold's 'My campy summer' was funny. If I had a say I would choose purple as the winner. The next day I was going to go to Saturday's college night so I got gas in Montevallo and made a fool of myself, it was a full servise station but I was pumping my own gas and I felt stupid when the attendent came up and told me. I walked around Montevallo because the weather kicked ass. Walked into a few stores CVS and Movie Gallery to name a few. I got to the University about 5 till 6 so I went to see if I could buy tickets for that college night and they were sold out! I get into my car and it wouldn't crank. Thankfully a University cop gave me a jump and I went back to the hotel. Next day I stopped at a Advance Auto and had to get my alternater replaced, 2nd one in a year. Long story short I loved it and glad I went and now I miss it. A lot more stuff happened but I don't want to type anymore. Sorry to waste your time.
