Spring Break

Okay so my plans for spring break is to go to Miami, FL and I can hardly wait. This will be my first time on a plan as well as in Miami. I have been to Florida many times. Disney world and Universal Studios were places my family visited often on our vacations. I must say that I was blessed as a child to have a mother who cared about her children and gave them the world if she could but was also realistic. I enjoyed my times in Orlando but it is time for a new scenery. I am 21 and moms is not gonna be with me on this trip. But I do remember how I was raised and know my rights from wrongs but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna have a great time.

That week it is also my nephew's first birthday. I am too excited bout this as well. I cannot miss his birthday or his birthday party. I was not there for his birth so I have to be there for this and that means my vacation will be cut short but that is alright with me. I value my family way too much to miss out on the great things. Life is too short!

Arriving in the Windy City

Friday the 22nd of January was also steered away from school and studying all of my six classes. I did miss my Operations Management class today and also another quiz but I am sure I will catch up on my reading. Friday morning the arrival time into Chicago, IL was suppose to be at 9:00am but ended up being 9:30 am but it was cool. We ate a nice breakfast on the train Cafe which was a full service restaurant. Upon arriving into the train station there was a problem with the car rental which resulted in more money being spent but a better Luxury car the new 2010 Lincoln MKZ from Alamo Car Rental Company. Also on this day the viewing of the Late Great Jerome Taylor was held. It was beautiful as well as the setting. It makes you appreciate life and the people around you. It made me realize love everyone cause one day your here and the next your gone. I love Jerome's family, they treat me like their own and we also had the famous Harold's chicken after and called it a night.

Trying Something New

Thursday the 21st of January was totally directed away from school. I spent the whole day with my sister Laken, who recently graduated from MTSU, my nephew Nick Jr, her son who will be 1 very soon on March 11, and also my cousin Eboney, who sense of humor was much needed that day. On this day I took my first train ride on the Amtrak to Chicago, IL and it was quite peaceful and much better than the Greyhound bus system.I really enjoyed this train ride with Jerome although we slept mostly the whole night.
