ASB Knoxville 2013

Today was definitely a day that we'll all remember as a great day! After some rain yesterday, we were more than thrilled to explore the University of Tennessee in perfect weather. We did so much today, so I'll start from the beginning! We started off the day by going to a self-defense class. That was A LOT of fun!!! We learned so many helpful techniques that could be really useful if we were ever put in a sexual assault situation. Even though that's a scary situation to think about, it's important to be aware of what we can do to escape. Our instructors had the perfect combination of being hilarious and informative, which made it an awesome experience. Too many women fall victim to this misfortune which is why it is so important that we all know how to protect ourselves.  After that, we took a tour of campus, had lunch with some really friendly UT students, and then did some souvenir shopping at the UT bookstore.
From there, we had an amazing view of the city from the Sun Sphere at the World Fair. After that, we went to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame. We ended that trip by shooting some basketballs and playing a fun game of Knock Out. Then, we were off to venture the city of Knoxville. We were able to get around by using UT's bus system which were really cute trolleys! We went to Old City, visited some thrift shops and into a really cool antiques store. After, we went to Market Square and enjoyed the sunshine together. To top it all off, we ended the day with a DELICIOUS dinner-eggs, bacon, and pancakes!! It was a great Tuesday :)
