I cannot believe it's taken me a week to write this blog! Seriously! The end of Spring Break has brought on a tidal wave of work and some tests. I'm surprised I haven't lost my mind, but believe me, I came close. This time last week, I was wrapping up my awesome vacation. It was a good one, to be honest; probably the best one I've had. Last year, something told me to star saving up for this Spring Break. I'm so glad I did; it was well worth it. My roommate and I spent the break in San Antonio. The drive was pretty arduous; nearly six hours in a car is pretty hard on my old woman knees.
When we got there, The week was filled with food. And I mean serious food. Not McDonald's or Taco Bell, but real grown-up food. We went just about everywhere on the Riverwalk from Hooters to a Spanish cafe with expensive entrees. It was awesome just to be there, spending money and not worrying about much anything (except the homework I got assigned over break. Thanks professors.)
All that being said, I think the real highlight of my Spring Break was the day trip we made up to Austin. Even more luckily, we got caught up in the sweet chaos that was the SXSW (South by Southwest) festival. Seeing as how I've wanted to go to SXSW forever, I was absolutely amazed at the fact I was lucky enough to be in the area while everything was going on. We didn't actually get to see the shows, but I definitely plan on attending next year and it will be awesome.
The rest of the week was more food, walking, and (expensive) parking. The weather was great for the most part. The first two days we were there it was cold, windy, and rainy. The sunshine and warm air more than made up for it, though. And pictures. Man, did I get pictures. I have photos of people, buildings, skylines, food, whatever. There are far too many to put on a single page, but I'll have them up soon. But for now, back to work.
