Double T

The Double T is for Texas Tech University. When I was a junior in high school, I went with my best friend and her parents to her college orientation at Texas Tech University. The campus was gorgeous. Tons of old trees, wide open spaces, cool old dorms, a kick butt athletic center. I had a great time, I caught senioritis, and I fell in love with the school.

I ended up going to Tech partially because of this visit, and partially because they dealt with me better than Texas A&M did. No matter what the reason, I spent five years at this school. My initial response to the campus proved to be true. Tech was an awesome school.

Unfortunately, Texas Tech University is in Lubbock, Texas. And while I loved and love Tech to this day, there was no happier day in my life than the one when my father drove us away in a UHaul when I graduated. Happiness truly is Lubbock in your rearview mirror.
