Spring Break "just chilling"

I went home to Charleston, West Virginia for a much needed and anticipated break. I turned down a free beach trip to Florida, because it was going to be my last "single" spring break, and I wanted to spend it with the fam. I just relaxed all week and watched one of the most exciting NCAA tournaments I have ever witnessed. (Ps I picked UCONN to win it all, and they still have a pretty good shot at doing it). Played ball as many times as I possibly could with old friends, ate home cooked meals, read leisurly, and finished up wedding plans with the fiance' plus took her out to a romantic dinner at Angela's on the River. I definitely recommend going here. The food was amazing and affordable. However, if you plan on having a romantic evening with your partner try to avoid these three things:

1) Don't lose your muffler on the way there, and then have to stop a bus full of kids pulling out of a elementary school. After stopping traffic and throwing my muffler in the trunk of my car and thoroughly embarrassing her, my car decided to another trick and have the back right bumper fall off.

2) Don't take your romantic partner to a romantic destination during a tornado watch, in which there is a possibility of being hammered with hail the size of quarters, and making a 20 minute drive turn into a thrilling 40 drive of "hail" (get it)

3) Lastly, don't let your best friend and his brother and random employee sit with you during the no longer romantic date. Avoid these things and you should be straight.

All that being said, spring break was great, and I loved being home with friends and family having real talk, and smoking ribs. I now feel recharged and am ready to finish my last semester strong. Well at least stronger than high school.

Food (My top 10 favorite places to get food in Morgantown)

Well after viewing many blogs. I decided to jump on the bandwagon and make a top 10 list of my own. So, these are the places over the last four years I have enjoyed the most around the Morgantown campus of WVU.

10) Damon's- I love going there during March Madness because I can watch all of the projected games. Food is good, but not great. On the contrary drinks are great, and if your into fantasy sports, Damon's is for you.

9) DP Dough- Tastes so good. I love the buffer zone and love how they deliver. However, I can't stand the smell that lingers on my clothing when I go inside.

8) Ledos Pizza- New to Morgantown, but extremely quality pizza.

7) Kegglers- I love Keggler's wings, especially there Gold Sauce. Great Drink options as well as tons of televisions to watch your favorite sporting events.

6) Cheddars- Sooo cheap and filling! There buffalo wraps are awesome as well as there croissants

5) Pee King House- Lunch special owns! 6.25 for a plate of sesame chicken, unlimited hot tea, and bowl of soup of your choice (wonton recommended)

4) Number 1 Super buffet- Mongolian grill, endless sushii, and unlimited crab legs on week days! Oh yea

3) Jimmy Johns- Delivers super fast and until open till 4 am. They are freaky fast and freaking good. (Yet, I don't recommend working there)

2) Hibachi- I love this place. There steak is unbelievable, and it is always entertaining. I go here every year for my birthday, and it has become a great tradition.

1) Panera- Panera has my heart because I am always in the mood for good soup and sandwiches. There breakfast is great and there coffee is better! Awesome place to get home work done with their free wi fi, and it has been a great place to just kick it with friends and have good conversation.
