When I came back to Auburn after Thanksgiving break last year, I realized that my apartment was in need of a serious make-over.
Last weekend I traveled to Athens, Ga., for the Auburn vs. UGA football game.I am from Atlanta so I was very excited to go to this game because a lot of my high school friends go to the University of Georgia.As I was driving to Athens, I started wondering to myself why I chose to attend Auburn over UGA.After all, when I made the decision to go to Auburn as a senior in high school, I had not even stepped foot on UGA's campus.However, since coming to Auburn I have visited Athens three times and after each visit I cannot drive fast enough to get back to the Loveliest Village on The Plains.Do not get me wrong, I have fun every time I go to Athens, but the University of Georgia lacks many of the qualities that had me begging my parents to let me attend Auburn and forfeit the HOPE scholarship.During my trip last weekend I realized UGA is definitely not the family Auburn is.
