Last Tuesday (the 24th) , I endured a very interesting and exciting trip to Padre in Texas with Jen and Kayla. We left at 8:00 and made our first stop at "The Golden Arches" to get breakfast. From there We headed straight to Texas. Now, when you have three teenage girls in a car for seven hours straight, there is NEVER a dull moment. We saw some pretty interesting things on our way down there.. During those 8 hours , many of calls were made to Radio Disney which we did get through. Then I laughed and they didn't really appreciate that. Other than that, we made plenty of pit stops… We finally made it to Jennifer's Nona's. Right when we got there we started getting ready to go to the Alamo Cafe.

| All right, so this was one of the most interesting things we saw on the trip. Don't ask me what he's doing. |

| Bye-bye Oklahoma! |

| This lady's hair was very intriguing. |

The next day, we went to Schlitterbahn which is a water park. Not my cup of tea. My feet were in so much pain from walking on hot concrete. I wanted to cry. We then went back to Jen's nona's to pick up her mom so she could drive the next 3 hours to the condo. We stopped at a Burger restaurant in Corpus Christi. We made it to the condo around 10:30-11. We crashed so we could wake up at the butt crack of dawn to go to the beach. Which indeed, happened. We went out to the beach at 8,then the pool,back to the room, and repeat about 3 times. That's what we did for about 3 days. We also went shopping at the little shops. We met some mighty good looking fellows at some of them.
At one point during the trip, I dared Jen to jump off a bridge into the pool(It wasn't a legit bridge) for 20 bucks. She did it without fail. In order to get my 20 bucks back I had to go sit by this guy who was skyping his girlfriend and have a decent conversation with him. After contemplating it I came to the realization that this wasn't a big deal for me. I can talk to strangers like nobody's business. So i go over there, sit down,. and the kid doesn't even speak english. It was one of the most awkwardest (new word) moments of my life. Which is saying something. Woeful day, woeful day.
Sunday, we packed up all of our belongings,cleaned, and headed back to Nona's. We stopped in San Antonio where things took a turn for the worst. To sum things up my wallet got lost. We're going to leave it at that. We finally made it back to nona's though. We woke up the next morning at 6:50 to leave my 7. We then got caught in traffic where no one could drive properly (shout out to the fellow stupid Texas drivers.) We then made more calls into Radio Disney where we actually stayed on for more than 2 seconds. We had an awkward face contest with some random guy on the road. Saw a couple hobos which ruined my day, and made it home around 3. All in all, a successful trip. I had a blast. I can't wait for our next road trip.

Summer 2012 is finally coming to an end. I might cry a little bit. Especially since it's ridiculously hot outside. Bring on Junior year.
