A Busy Weekend

     I had one of the busiest weekends of my life. I woke up on Saturday with a positive feeling. It was going to be a good day capped off with an LSU victory. By noon, I'm in my happy place. I'm at a tailgate eating a surprisingly good hamburger and watching football. That's all I want on a Saturday, just peace and football. By the time I get into Tiger Stadium, I'm ten times more excited about winning thanks to the help of 2 cokes and a Dr. Pepper. Due to the rest of the nights events, my paragraph about Saturday ends here.
     I opened my eyes on Sunday realizing what had happened last night wasn't a dream. It really happened. I looked at the clock and realized it was noon. I walk out to see my parents reading the paper. They had let me sleep in through church. It was a change from the norm but I decided to accept it and move on. 3 hours later, I had a soccer game. I played the full 80 minutes without getting subbed out, so I was exhausted. Even though I felt like I had lost all my energy, I had a scavenger hunt across Baton Rouge in an hour with my youth group. That was going to take more running than my soccer game. When I get the questions for the hunt, I realize they're all on LSU's campus. Nothing like a scavenger hunt across LSU to remind you of last night. To find all of the clues, I ran like I had super speed. Some of the many highlights included: Running around the Parade Ground, PMAC, Quad, Union, and one of the LSU lakes, Taking too many pictures with people I didn't even know, and driving (not me but a friend's mom) 60 mph. on a 35 mph speed limit. Overall it was the best fun of my weekend. It was a great experience and one to remember.
