so now that worlds 2008 is over i have no idea what to do with my free time. actually i'll most likely be catching up on my geometry (curse ye).
but i greatly enjoyed the Worlds experience; in some ways it was better than last year.
the food for the most part was better; at least the salad bar was good. as our buddy team from Singapore put it," You guys are like rabbits, just eating vegetables!" they were really sweet though. they were much easier to communicate with than last year's team.
we had a lot of fun spending time with each other (even though we've been seeing each other since September of last year!) as katie said we came up with quite a few inside jokes and catch phrases which i won't explain since it wouldn't make any sense and then it wouldn't be an inside joke anymore :)
the night before we had spontaneous (i think it was Sunday night) we ended staying up 'til 4:00 AM! none of us were really that tired and then of course ellie started getting hungry (i did too). we also had the fortunate coincidence of finding a chinese menu in the lounge which only increased our hunger, so instead we circled all the meals that we wnated to eat. we also tried to order a pizza at 3:00 but found out the Dominoe's (i'm allowed to use their name right?) onlt delivered 'til 2:00. we ended up eating Sunchips and pretzels with non-salsa and disgusting jalapenos.
yes, it is true tat i was holding a box-cutter behind my back while we were receiving the unfortunate news of our dino costume. i didn't really notice anybody elses emotions, but i do know that Galen was very distressed and i was just shooting daggers at everybody and almost committed bloody murder. luckily Galen took the knife away before i could commit said crime; which is good cuz that action probably would've gotten us eliminated. i was told later by my team mates that i had this horrible look on my face the whole time. in case you haven't figured it out, i have a horrible temper...
anywho, after performing the rest of the time went amazingly. we went into D.C. on Monday and had a great time there. we did walk for a very long time, but i think that it was all worth it. i love Washington D.C.
i am sad that it's all over, but it was a terrific experience and i know that i will never forget it. i think other people will post pictures seeing that i can't do it.
thanks for listening (i think).
