I was driving for about an hour and parked my car in a gas station to use the bathroom and get gas. When I got out the store, I saw my car was dripping water. I didn't look like oil or coolant. My AC was on when to drove it there. Is this normal for the AC to do that? I swear my other car (prius) doesn't do that. (or maybe never caught it doing that).

It just needed a bathroom break like you. The condenser removes the moisture from the air and that condensate (water in English) has to go somewhere. There's a drain pipe that drains it to the ground. (Make sure that drain doesn't get clogged or you'll end up with water on the floor of your car).

Thanks for the reply guys. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to do that. As you may already noticed, I'm paranoid.
So Draining = Normal. Flooded foot well = Bad.

Alright thanks!
