I am a day late, again. But thats only because I had an amazing weekend in Fort Wayne and had to make up some sleep.
But lets stay in order here, I will begin with the beginning of the week when we turned in our football pads after school since football sadly is over.
After that I went to my first wrestling practice, after some talk about the rules in that room we begann with different techniques and some conditioning.
I really liked the practice and since the room is warm everybody is sweating like crazy.
The people on the team are really nice and welcomed me warmly and I had great practices all week long. Another thing in wrestling is, that you go into competitions by weight, so weight matters a lot. And I was surprised when I only put a 165 pounds on the scale.
After practice I went to the Campus Life Dodge Ball tournament in the field house of our school. It was super fun, even though my team lost quite fast and we didn't make it very far in the ranking. But I had a great time and that matters the most.
I also got to know a bunch of new people and that always super much fun :)
Moving on to Tuesday we had presentations about our current American Studies project about national parks. My group and I talked about Channel Islands National Park down in California and now i actually really want to go there, probably that will happen sometime. But the whole project made me admire nature and hoping to visit a bunch of of those parks.
Well but anyways, the third day of the week we had a funny little exercise in speech. It's called the Penny Speech, everybody has to talk for 2 minutes and for every mistake made the other guys drop a penny into a bowl. It was a fun little thing and we actually could learn about each other and what they like and so on.
Friday the GoMad camp in Fort Wayne started and it lasted to Sunday noon. All in all it was a great time and about a thousand other teenagers were up there from all over Indiana.
We had a great time and there was live music and games and we just had time to hang out and talk and I could say that this was a weekend well spent when I came back home at Sunday.
I guess that was about everything that happened this last week.
I will post some pictures, as soon as I downloaded them from my phone
