Collegiate Right of Passage

Spring break started off a little hopeless. I'd mostly decided to head to Barnes & Noble and pick up some books to read during the week and then Saturday happened. Spur of the moment, Beth decided we had to be in Florida but we had no idea how to get there or how to pay for it. Basically, long story short, priceline.com rules and at 9PM we booked a flight for the next day at 11 out of Buffalo. This was definitely my first plane ride since I was like 5, so I pretty much had a panic attack during the first initial take off, but it ruled regardless. We had a three hour layover in Atlanta, and that was kind of cool, I suppose. We ate food, and then I studied Psych while Beth made friends with some old dude who noticed she was wearing a Penn State hoodie and then we took off again for Tampa.

Florida was absolutely amazing. We stayed with Beth's family and the entire week was just perfect. We pretty much just lounged around the pool and went shopping to be honest. I got so tan in just that one week, it was ridiculous. We also headed to the beaches, and can I just say that I absolutely adore little beach towns? It's like the only place you can get away with a hot pink or lime green house. Of course we were out in the sun all day so we got a little burnt, but not too horribly.

The end of the week really came too fast and now I'm obsessed with the place and want to go back :/ You have no idea. I need to move out.
