Tallahassee, Florida is home to the Capitol and the ever-so incredible, Florida State University. After attending FSU for almost four years, I'd say I have learned the tricks of the trade. Tally is one interesting place filled with a little bit of everything. Between the academia, the night-life scene, and walking up the steepest hills just to get to class, it doesn't take long to figure out the ABC's of Florida State University.
