What I learned at the Beach...

When traveling with new people that you have never traveled with before you can expect anything. I had a feeling that the 5 of us would be okay… but, you never know. I can honestly say this was an AWESOME trip.

Here are some things I learned on the trip:
- Everything is Sarah’s fault

- When you are under 5 feet 3 inches tall… a long shirt CAN be a dress

- Boys will flock when you fill out brackets

- Some of us LOVE drunk frat boys…. Some of us HATE drunk frat boys (guess which one I am!)

- Drinking beer in the shower is AWESOME

- True Red Sox fans believe anything is possible AND will do into a swampy nasty pit of alligators to get their winning World Series hat

- Good Karma will follow those who help the jellyfish

- 70s pop stars & songs make GREAT turtle names

- Brandy has the power to rename entire species of fish

- Eating the same dinner, at the same place, 3 nights in a row is COMPLETELY acceptable!

- 13 Bloody Mary is too much --- you will fall off a table

- “Chart” and “Graphic Organizer” are NOT what you call a “bracket”

- I love British boys even more than frat boys

- An I-65 wine tasting with snacks is the BEST way to travel

- Bronchitis on the beach will make you delirious

- Sweaters and towels do not look the same

- Illustrated brackets are better than official ones

- Boys who dig a gigantic hole, drive all night from Chicago, are older than college age, and look like Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters make great beach neighbors. (also get to be named Vince because we decided it to be so)

- Apparently it is NEVER too warm to wear a long sleeve Memphis basketball shirt on the beach

- According to drunk college boys there is “proper” swimwear attire

- Some of us can drink like we are paying tuition

- Liquor can be a dessert

- Everyone has a Scooby Doo personality

- It is possible for me to be still and quiet for a VERY extended period of time and still be awake!!!
