Austin <3

Hey there! What's up everyone?! Well I just got home from Austin about 45 minutes ago. I'm exhausted. I had fun though. When we arrived at the capitol for the student legislative session, I looked around and found my way to the room where we were supposed to go. I got a name tag and went to a group/committee. I was so nervous because I wasn't with Blaz or Cristina Lu when they put me into a group. I was with a whole bunch of people I didn't know. I felt really uncomfortable because right when I sat down, a guy started talking and asking questions about different bills/issues. Everyone's vocabulary was so advanced and the questions that were being asked were like way above my level.. well way above what I'm used to! When different people answered using such big words I was like whoa!! When the speaker was walking around asking random people questions, I was hiding my face. In my head I was saying "Don't pick me! Don't pick me!" I looked at Blaz who was on the table diagonal from mine and our faces said "What the heck are we doing here?!" After the guy finished talking, we started discussing our bill in our group. I wasn't really paying attention because I didn't really understand the words they were using. So I talked to a few girls and a guy. We got to know each other and they turned out to be really nice! After that, it was time to eat. As people were getting their plates and stuff, I went to Blaz and I was like "Wow I feel so awkward here." He felt the same way. I went back to my table to talk to my committee. We got to know each other a little more by asking if we played sports and when our birthday was and if we had pets. We laughed a lot too! We also exchanged myspace addresses right before we headed to the house chamber thingy. In there, the main person of our committee presented the bill and people went up to ask questions. It started at 2 and was going to last until 5. After that we went down 6th street aka wild party street and saw a few weirdos. You would think they wouldn't be out until late at night LOL. Then we went around the college just to check out the buildings and all that. Then we headed home and dropped Blaz off with his dad in San Antonio. Then we arrived in Benavides about an hour ago. I'm tired of being on the road!! So now I'm off to the store to get some food for my dog, then I'm just going to chill!! Bye <3
