SECO- The South East Congress of Optometry  was held 2 weeks ago during SCO's spring break. Road trip! I relaxed the first part of spring break and then it was time to hit the road.  A friend and I left for Atlanta at 4:30am Friday morning, drove through a storm, and then made it to Atlanta just in time for lunch.  Perfect.  Then, it was time to find out what SECO was really all about.

Taxis, Buses, Planes... Oh My!

Hi Blogosphere: It took 3 taxi rides, 1 missed bus, and a plane ride, but I’m finally SECO bound. Talk about the worst of circumstances; I must really have the worst luck. I’ve been looking forward to taking the Megabus with my other classmates since we decided to book our tickets together back in December.
