Texas Sized November 5, 2007

Posted by Emily in : Texas, Trips , trackback

While I was visiting the great state of TEXAS, it was very obvious how “everything is Bigger and Better in TEXAS”. My world on Saba is so small: 1,500 people, five miles big, nine miles of road, one gas station, four grocery stores, and a few restaurants. So, everything in TEXAS seemed THAT much bigger. I had to take a picture of Central High School, which is located near my old house in TEXAS. There are over 3,000 kids (or more) enrolled in this high school. Ahem . . . that is like THREE times the population of Saba. The school probably sits on five square miles too . . . Nice to know that my entire world could fit into this ONE school.

Texas really is bigger in almost every way. It is amazing that you live in such a small place. I think everything in America is bigger, our cars, roads, houses, meals, etc. We definately have an abundance of things and you don’t realize it until you leave the country.

I hopped over here from Michelle’s blog.

My daughter goes to that school. There are 900 kids in her freshman class!

Love your blog! You lead an interesting life. ;-)

I go to this school, actually!

SUCH. A big school! Since it’s on an incline, there is a lever zero, and alllll the way up to level three. The traffic in the hallways is worse then on the highways sometimes! XD
