4. Fall Break!

I wish MC's fall break lasted a little longer. Mine was pretty interesting. Friday morning i had to get up at 4AM and drive back to Montgomery which usually takes about 4 and a half hours it took me only 3 and a half.. there was no one on the road! My old best friend's mom died that past week and I had to get home for the funeral.. I wouldl have left the night before but we had pledge stuff. I got there around 8 and went to eat with a bunch of my friends at ihop around 9. We went to the church for the funeral around 10:30.. We sat down in the pues in silence for awhile bc the last time we were all in that church together was graduation day. My friend planned the funeral all by herself (yes shes 18) and it was a beautiful celebration of her moms life. That afternoon my friend drove to chattanooga for a rowing competition .. she made the rowing team at georgia tech.. it wa sher mom's last wish that she went for she was soo proud of her! I headed up tp birmingham with my family for my best friends family weekend (she lives with us). It was nice.. me, cassie, and my mom stayed at my brothers house while he was gone and just chilled and watched movies. My sister and niece came up saturday and we went shopping. We all left sunday afternoon to go back to montgomery. I was so happy to be back in town for awhile.. I hadnt been back since I left for college. I called some friends and surprised them and told them I was here.. it was fun! Now this past week was hard to get back in the routine of school. But I'm back and we have sooo many test and follies practice this week.. im not looking forward to it at all!!

I'm so sorry that you and your friends had to go through the grieving process of your friend's mom dying, but I am sure that it has brought y'all that much closer.
