Rain, Rain, Go Away

YAF Conference, Part 6

It rained for a long time during the drive to Minnesota. Leaving Springfield, it seemed like it might be smooth sailing for the entire trip. Although it wasn't sunny, I didn't think that a good majority of our trip was going to take place dodging rain drops. What a big surprise! Having to dodge rain drops made the trip seem like it was taking even longer.
Not even thinking that the trip would be rainy, I ended up being somewhat unprepared. The rainy weather kept the temperatures lower than I thought they'd be, so it felt somewhat like winter- just a little bit chilly. It felt like that leaving Springfield. It felt even chillier as we travelled up northward. Luckily, I wasn't the only person who wasn't the only one not to have brought a light jacket or sweater; a few other people made the same mistake. Other than that, the weekend adventure had no problems.

My Interesting Life As a Student

Springfield, Illinois, United States
I'm living in Springfield, but I'm originally from Chicago. I am now living in a group home for people who are visually impaired. Living at the Mary Bryant Home has been a huge step in my life. I am now able to get involved in activities every day. I am making lots of new friends, and I'm enjoying living with my new family. Since I'm the youngest person, I feel like I have lots of parents and grandparents, and even my best friend, who is like a big sister, to spend my time with. I don't think I'd change this for anything else in the world.
