1. First of all, the weather was unpredictable, to say the least.
2. And a few flakes were ~snow~ joke.
3. SERIOUSLY. The whole state was affected.
4. SoL Tests were the biggest nightmares of grades three through 12.
5. Seeing a 7-11 was and is a daily guarantee.
6. This was TOO TRUE:
7. And these field trips:
8. A visit to the local mall — which always had a not-so-great movie theater — was a damn rollercoaster.

22. You've always felt like your home was important, because apparently everything happened here.
23. "Owt," "oot," "oht," and "aht."
24. You could pretty much predict your summers before they began.
25. Unless you wanted to go to Busch for the 561017264649th time.
26. But, no matter the small struggles you faced on the daily, Virginia was and is still the best state in the country. 😍
