250 Words Describing Barrett Ford

I was born in Jackson, Mississippi on August 6, 1989. I have two older sisters named Lindsay, who is 25, and Elicia, who is 22. Lindsay graduated from Mississippi State, and Elicia graduated from Penn. I also have three dogs. Both of my sisters and I graduated from the same high school, Jackson Prep. I am a huge sports fan, especially football. Although, I will admit that I am fairly new to the whole Alabama football thing. I went to my first game this past Saturday, and I had a blast. I have always been a huge New Orleans Saints fan as well as a pretty big Ole Miss fan. I also like to watch other sports such as baseball and basketball. My favorite sport to play has always been soccer. I played it from the time I was five until my senior year in high school. In addition to sports I also love food. My dad does all the cooking in the family, and we also like to eat out a lot. I will eat almost anything except for a few vegetables and doughnuts, which we discussed in our first English class. I also love to sleep, have a good time with my friends, listen to music, and try my hand at golf every now and then. I would also say that I am a pretty good student in school. I enjoy math and science classes the most, but I also enjoy history and English. My favorite teachers from high school were actually history and English teachers. I have really enjoyed Alabama the first three weeks I have been here. I am really excited about the rest of the year and the rest of football season.

I've always wanted to see Jackson, just because Faulkner wrote so much about it. People are always travelling to, or away from Jackson in his books. What's it like? How's Tuscaloosa in comparison?
