I've been insanely busy these past few days but thankfully I've been having a good time. This week I took part in some major events at my high school. One is called the winter challenge, in which teams of four compete in different games to win prizes. It was tons of fun. My team had a pirate theme, and so we went the night before the competition started and made ridiculous pirate outfits. We looked so stupid! It was great.

I also took part in a 24 hour snow fort building competition; which was one of the most intense things I've ever done. I was on a team with twenty other people from my group, of whom two are my best friends. I have never worked so hard in my life! The pile of snow that we were given to work with froze, and so I spent the first six hours hammering at a giant piece of ice. In the end our team won third place, which was pretty good considering none of us had ever done it before. I was actually really proud of our fort. We had no plan whatsoever when we got started, but the end result was very impressive.

After that I took a road trip with some friends, and went to a club an hour away. It was great! The funny part is, I ran into a girl from school while I was there. I thought I was going crazy, because I could hear someone calling my name as I walked into the club (21 and under night). So I spent the rest of the night dancing, and catching up with her.

Well thats all I've got for now.
