I noticed the difference in plant life and wildlife immediately, especially in the types of birds. And what a surprising culture…

I have lived in the southern part of the country for my whole life. I don’t ever plan on leaving here because I really love it. I can’t even explain how great it is to live in a place that rarely gets cold. I really hate the cold weather and snow that the northern part…
When I was applying to college last year I felt like I really didn’t have a choice but to go to the same school my parents went to. It is a really nice old school that has been around for over a hundred years. However, I really didn’t feel like I wanted to go to…
