We have had so much fun here! We went to O.D.U and saw the huge Lion fountain. We learned that their is a thing in the ground on the campus, called the campus seal, that no one walks on till they graduate. Legend has it if you touch it before you graduate you won’t in four years. We also found out that they have a total of 24,672 students attending their. The president at the campus is John R. Broderick, and every Tuesday and Thursday they have a campus break time where no classes run and everyone hangs out around the Lion or inside; if the weather is bad. We also had a long bus ride where almost everyone fell asleep and trust me I got pictures.
The long bus ride we were happy to get to the hotel and hung out. We ran to our rooms to see the view and call our families. My parents said you could see the joy all over my face. They weren't wrong I was definitely love struck. You would too if you were their.
After a while no one could wait a minute longer to go walk on the beach and get food. We decided to go an check it out. It wasn’t long after we got there that all the girls took off running to the ocean; the boys and teachers walked. We had pizza and cheese fries for dinner, than split the party into shopping and swimming groups. I went shopping and got gifts for Tyler and Kaitlyn, my siblings. Than we all went back and swam, except the guys and Mr. Ellen, Than some of us went to the beach and only Isabella and I got more than a foot in. Than we headed back to the hotel where we swam till for a while longer. When we finally retired to our rooms for the night my room stayed up till 3:30am, more like Isabella and I after having a cup of coffee; don’t tell Mrs. Z we did that. The next day was pretty cool, even though we got a late start. We ate breakfast and went to the aquarium for some true fun. We saw everything from snakes to turtles and yes I got a picture of the turtle to show and one of me in a sharks mouth.
When we had our fun we went to C.N.U for a tour. It was awesome! We went to the indoor track where Daisy and Sasha raced; I still don’t know who won. We found out that it is named after Captain Christopher Newport. It became a full university in 1992, and started in 1960. They also had wonderful staircases; you know how much I like staircases. Anyway I totally got a picture of their liberty.
Now, we are back home and living our day to day lives. However, I don’t think anyone will soon forget the trip. I know I won’t.
