The trip home from Roatan Honduras involved a three day detour in Houston to see relatives. Our nephew Graham is freshman at Rice University. We wanted to check out the whole college scene. Unfortunately, Graham and his suitemates are just too devoted to their studies to take any breaks. When they are not in class, they are studying. They even grab their food and take it back to their suite so they can continue studying. The only break from studying is when they go to bible study or call home daily to thank their parents for being such wonderful parents and allowing them the tremendous opportunity to go to Rice U!
NAH! Turns out college life hasn't changed much. They are typical college kids having the time of their lives. They sleep as late as their class schedule will allow. They socialize on a monumentous level. They pull crazy pranks, torture the lesser colleges (dorms), stay up up super late and parting like Rock Stars. Very Kewl! They are all great guys and we sleep better now knowing they will be in charge in the coming years!
We also had the chance to get caught up with two different cousins. Cousin Shawn, Julee & Bre moved there last fall. Cousin Ellis has been Houston
for ages. We met him at a really terrific little joint that had fabulous food. A fusion of Central & South American food. Yum-O as Rachel would say!And by the way....if you live in the Houston area...pay your damn taxes so you can expand the light rail or at the very least get some additional street signs. Traffic SUCKS in Houston. OMG! Seriously people, you need to do something!
