The CK Daily – Burger Buses to School Buses
Hi everyone!
This Saturday I took a little daytrip to Ball Ground, GA, to have lunch with my grandma at the Ball Ground Burger Bus. It’s a quirky little spot where you sit inside a converted bus, which is what makes it so unique. The line was a little long, and after getting my food, I could tell why! We couldn’t stay long since there were still so many people waiting for a seat, but if you ever stop by, I recommend the ‘Fried Green Jacket’!
Sunday, on the other hand, was right back into college life. I affectionately call it my Study Sundays, and it is one of my top favorite routines. It involves getting to the student center right when it opens, grabbing a study room, bringing our lunches, and studying for about 6-8 hours. Once our brains can’t handle it any longer, we stop for groceries before heading home, and it really starts the week off right! It’s something so ordinary, but it’s comforting to have a steady routine amid everything else going on!
Do you have a simple weekend habit that you always look forward to? I’d love to hear!
