Ropes Course!!

Today we went to the Ropes Course. Hehehehehehehehehehe. If you know we, you would know what tone of voice that was in. :)

For the Medicine Camp, there were two different groups. The first group goes in the morning and the second group goes in the afternoon. Yesterday, my TA was pretty sure we were in the morning, so he listed a ton of reasons why being in the afternoon was terrible.

It's Like College. Except Not.

Wow. Can I just say wow? After approximately 19 hours, I am already addicted to this camp.

Let me catch you up. On Saturday afternoon, I flew down to San Francisco with my brother on an fight full of noisy kids, having already accepted that my first few days at the NSLC Health Care and Medical Camp might be super nerve-wracking and maybe even miserable.

Competition #2: Phoenix

I'm writing this on the airplane back form Phoenix, looking out my window at the Grand Canyon. Can I just point out how cool it is? So anyway, I'm really supposed to be talking about my trip, which was also pretty darn cool.

We left for Phoenix on Friday after school, and unfortunately missed the team dinner. We stayed at the Arizona Grand Resort which is huge and was pretty eerie at night. We went to bed pretty much right away because we had to get up at 6:00 to get ready for my meet the next morning. In the morning, we did my hair, had some breakfast, and walked to the meet.

Competition #1: Seattle/Tacoma

Well, I competed at my first meet in one and a half years! As I said in one of my previous posts, this meet was in the Seattle area, Tacoma specifically. My trip included three caesar salads, an extremely special floor routine, a Toblerone bar, and lots of glass.

We flew in late Thursday, and had a late dinner in the hotel restaurant. Friday morning, we got up around 9:00 AM, ordered room service for breakfast, and then went to the glass museum. I must mention that the glass museum was very, very cool. The first part was wandering around the gallery, where there were many different styles of glass artwork. Then, we went into the "Hotshop."There were live artists who actually blew glass right in front of you. It was pretty interesting to me, especially since I didn't know anything about glass art. (I didn't even know that glass was actually blown-- *facepalm.)
