Tupelo High School in Christmas Mood

 
Today the holidays start and Tupelo is in Christmas mood! Everything looks like in a typical american christmas movie, only without snow. In this area snow is something extraordinary and the schools close with the first centimeter snow. But not even a centimeter snow falls here every year; it is only cold.



The last schoolday's. Exams were taken and the classes got easier, most of the we watched movies, ate togheter or had different activities.

Ugly-Christmas-Sweater-Day with the most awesome group at the school, Mrs. Buckley's english class!

Mrs. Buckley - the school's most awesome person over 22!

And then we were ready for the holidays..








The Basketball Saison started a few weeks ago, and the homegames are now the events were we students meet at friday evenings.

Oxford & The University of Mississippi

A hour away from my Hometown Tupelo is the Campus of the University of Mississippi, also called Ole Miss, in Oxford MS. We went there at a Saturday to visit the Campus, eating in town and watching a Ole Miss Baskettball Game!
The whole Town looks like in the 1960's and everything is decorated in the University's colors, blue & red. Everything is very clean and has stile.
It is one of the most beautiful and impressive places I have ever seen.

And then we visited the Ole Miss University Campus!
I have never seen a University beautiful like this. The campus consists of parks, schools, clubhouses, bars, sports facilities and more.
