This girl right here just so happens to be spending her summer in Georgia. That’s right, Georgia. If you’ve never been to this state right in the heart of the south, you’re missing out. But I’m not just spending my summer in Georgia, I’m spending it on an island off the Georgian coast. Okay, so it’s going to be hot and it’s going to be buggy and I’m going to be away from my family and friends. But I am going to be having the adventure of a lifetime. I’m the kind of person who can’t look back and think maybe that would have been a fun thing to do. Nope, any time I’ve got an opportunity to do something different, I take it. Even if it sucks hardcore, I’ll still be happy that I took the jump. I like to live with no regrets.

What is Georgia going to be like? I don’t know. Before I went to Atlanta and Tybee Island, I was just like every other Northern in my thoughts about the peach state. Basically Georgia’s a state full of hicks and fields. It’s basically the most beautiful state with the friendliest people. I’m not sure what it’s going to be like to live and work there. I’m going to be so close to the beach and I’ll be the Jersey girl surrounded by southerners. I’ll also be working in a museum studies program on the island, so I’m also following my dream. It’s hard to sit through less than a month of school when all I want to do is pack my bags and get my summer started.
