When we first took off it was awesome I've seen at least 20 war planes. I was not scared of flying I loved it seeing clouds up close it was cool.Landing was funny cause I really had to pee so I barreled over Opey shake hands with people and then said where is the nearest bathroom I have to pee so this nice lady took me to a port a potty. when we got to the dorm it was funny cause the bus driver could not find it the way opey was telling him the name so we drove another block to get to the dorm. Sunday was cool we had a delay do to a thunder storm which gave us a chances to trade some pins with other teams it was so cool and fun. when Monday rolled around the real games begun. I didn't have any thing tell 9:45 it felt like seven hours to compete.the first thing I did was the shot put I fouled twice but still pulled fourth place. Next was the 400 meter race and it was hard on a collage size track I pulled third place in that one. the last race for that day was the 200 meter i pulled a close fourth place, I was .23 hundredths of seconds behind the third place runner. I also got to see the Nebraska football field that they play their games on not the practice one that was flip-en awesome. well that was about the most interesting things that have happened in the last three day I still have five more days left and I am excited to be here.
