Then it was my turn I was to shoot a "45" it had quite a kick back to it so my first shot missed the target completely ha ha! But once I sorted my nerves and my aim out I was good to go! One of my last shots hit the bullseye ...

... about 7pm Louisiana Time which was 8pm Georgia time (forgot about the stupid time differences). Ashley's Mum and Dad were staying for the week and as we got there Ashley's Mum had just finished making dinner. It was "chicken fried Steak" weird I hear you cry, your right. It's like KFC without the chicken and with a steak in the fried batter instead. It's nice but I can't get my head around it lol!

I realize that a lot of this entry is some really boring stuff - hell, I'm even bored writing it, but I wanted to check this out and make sure it was something I wanted to do on the trip.

... win tickets for prizes. We are now waiting for massages(what a life,eh?) so I am excited about a massage. We are staying at a very nice place on campus and I walked around campus to see the football, baseball, and basketball arenas. This is a very beautiful campus! I am gearing up for a 115 mile day tomorrow.

Well, it's pretty much official now; bought my ticket (okay, mom bought the ticket), and I'll be leaving here on the 21st of June! Still have to get clothes, choose my courses, and other general little things. There probably won't be any updates until I get ready to leave or have already left. See you all!

She bribed me with cookies, though, and I can smell them just coming out of the oven while I pull back into our driveway. My mom winks at me when I am in the dentist's chair, when I am getting x-rayed. She gives me a good luck balloon; she knows I'm still ten years old.
