One week left

 For the summer session it is coming to an end soon. For anyone coming out to Texas in the future I'm sure it will feel just like home as it did for me. There are a lot of similarities between South Carolina and Texas, you will see a lot of the same stores. The Woodlands and the Conroe area are great places to go shopping. My roommate and I went to that area to go look at dogs for her upcoming year. We got to meet the sweetest little dog there it was hard to leave him. I do want to give a heads up for anyone that comes here in the summer, since the heat can reach into the 100s you will be spending a lot of time in doors. However, that does make for more study time as well being able to get to know your roommates better.

Time to shop

 Had a lot of fun at the mall in the woodlands with my roommate. The mall is two stories all around so they have a lot of shops inside. My favorite is the pet shop where you are allowed to play with the puppies and kittens for a little while. They had a actual Lego store that had several different sets, we got one and it was a lot of fun putting it together. I was very surprised to see a tattoo parlor inside the mall because we don't have anything like that back home. I also tried the Big Red drink that is signature to Texas, it is great if you like really sugary drinks. If you are a big fan of Moe's restaurant you have to try Torchy's here, it is next to the woodlands mall and it is so good. 

Happy 4th of July

 Happy 4th of July!!! Several places were shooting off fireworks tonight to celebrate America's independence. Our apartment complex was one of them. While this is a very exciting night it will also mark the start of summer 2 semester. I am excited to learn new information in this up coming course, as well as looking forward to having time to venture out and of campus. I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe 4th of July.
