The Icy Mullet

Yesterday's weather here was sunny and mid 50's, but when I woke up this morning there was ice on the ground, people scraping off the vans, and even SNOW in some paces on campus!
Yes, it is only 30 degrees down here today and it is COLD! I thought that I had left this wintery weather mixture in Maine, but I guess I was wrong! Depending on how much people freak out down here about this crazy weather pattern, we may not have any trainings tomorrow...which I would be okay with :) OH I forgot to mention that this round, Norah and I will be Co-Assistant Team Leaders (ATLs), which means I will have more responsibility than just the average team member...I don't really like being in charge and having to tell people what to do, but having another "partner in crime" will be better, and I don't think I really have to worry about my amazing team doing anything crazy that I will have to deal with!
In other news, yesterday was a slow-paced Saturday...I was with a handful of friends driving around trying to think of fun things to do in the Vicksburg area and we weren't having much luck...we tried going to the mall, which ended up being like going back in time to the 1970s...to a mall with only a few stores, Elvis music playing the whole time, and only about 13 other people in the entire mall. We kept ourselves busy for a good 20 minutes "racing" coins and watching Drew and Rob in a "hurricane simulator" that blew their hair around, and supposedly went up to 80mph, but they didn't believe that to be true. We left there and headed to Wal*Mart where Rob so generously sacrificed his beautiful hair for our entertainment while getting a MULLET! The hair dressers didn't know what it was, so we had to Google it for them and show them a picture hahaha they thought it was hilarious and it took both of them to complete the task, as well as them taking pictures with their phones to show all their friends! Needless to say, it made the day amazing and we were all very grateful for Rob's sacrificing his hair for our entertainment!
We ended the night with a nice, huge dinner at El Sombrero where some other friends joined us and there ended up being about 20 of us at one huge table in the middle of the restaurant! Good times. :)
