Things I Learned in Texas

This last week I got an opportunity to visit the great state of Texas. I've only been there once really and I'm already calling it great? Great. Anyway, I went to visit Dallas Theological Seminary (DTS) where I am considering attending after I finish with USF this summer. I learned a few things about Texas, DTS, and myself during the trip.


 

• I doubt everything actually is bigger in Texas, but I had some of the biggest grapes I've ever seen for breakfast.
• Check the forecast for the entire time you will be in a place. There's nothing like encountering a cold day on your last day and all you have to wear is shorts and sandals.
• Genitives are frustrating. Yep. All 32 of them.
• Trying to decide your future path in the course of a few days is quite impossible.
• 6am does actually exist and if you meet it you can actually get a lot done in a day.
• I'm not a very trusting person.
• I wanted to drive primarily because I didn't trust the airlines or their workers to maintain the aircraft properly so that it would safely make it the destination.
• Apparently my brain didn't factor in the airline industry's safety record.
• Come on brain! Work with me here!
• I don't know any hymns.
• I don't know Greek.
• I don't know Hebrew.
• Hummus is good.
• Asparagus doesn't have a taste.
• Getting stuck on programming assignments and not being able to get help completing them is also frustrating. More so than genitives. 

It was a good time. Now I just need to process through all this information and make a decision about my future. No pressure.
