Travel News....

And here is Megan Bristow with your latest travel update....

That's what it's felt like the past few days....My family has not stayed in one place for over 2 days on this trip. It's been a lot of fun, but it is getting exhausting.  Right now we are in San Antonio, but I guess I should backtrack a little bit.

We visited OBU, but I really am not "feeling" it there.  I like SBU much better.  OBU has a very nice campus, but it seemed to me like they didn't have their priorities set straight.  I am sure it is fine for some people, it just wasn't for me....and if I am going to pay the price of a college education, I might as well go somewhere I will love.  Some of it was just a lot of little things put together that I don't like....

1. The admissions counselor was more of a saleperson instead of at SBU the focus was on doing what God had in plan for you.  

2.  They had a apple lab at OBU as they did at SBU, however only art students could use it which was totally uncool as I am not nor will I ever be an art student.

3.  The piano practice rooms could only be utilized by music students instead of them being open to any student at SBU.  I have thought about being a music student, but it is not in the plan for right now.

4.  I didn't like the town of Shawnee, Oklahoma as well as I liked the town of Bolivar, MO.  I am ready for a little while at least for the calm, relaxed pace of a small town.  Shawnee is about 3x as big as Bolivar.  

I'm definitely not implying that OBU was bad, it just wasn't for me.  However, things could change, and I could still decide to go there.  You never know with me.  

But I have to say that I am leaning towards Southwest Baptist University.  And I have about a month before school starts.  AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

But we have been in Big Spring, Texas for the past few days visiting with grandparents.  Today we drove to San Antonio, TX.  We are staying with my aunt and uncle who have a 2 year old girl, and a 4 month old baby boy. They are very cute, and should make our time here very interesting.  

We leave here on Sunday afternoon to go to Dallas.  And Monday afternoon, I get to tour Dallas Baptist University.  This is our last college tour so hopefully things turn crystal clear soon.  So I've got a busy weekend, and I am sure I will need sleep to operate...so I'm going to end this post for now.....Later.
