I absolutely love the south!  I have family in North Carolina and we go there at least twice a yaer.  I love the south because accents are hot, the waether is so nice, the people are wicked nice, BLACKENED CATFISH AND HUSH PUPPIES not to mention the cracker barrell.  I know we have them in the North too but it just isn't the same unless you're in Dixie.  I love the architecture of plantation homes too with the big columns and ballrooms and sweeping staircases.  I'd love to live in North Carolina for a while, UNC has an awesome grad progrm i'm looking into.
