Hawaii: Day One

WARNING: SO MANY PICTURES!!!!!!

Yesterday was my first day in Hawaii for the band trip. Well it wasn't much of a day.My group didn't arrive here until six pm, which is 11pm at home. The jet lag wasn't too terrible, though I really have nothing to compare it to since Yellowstone was just an hour or two behind. We left the high school at five in the morning and rode a charter bus down to the Minneapolis Airport. I was dead asleep on during the bus ride. I was so tired! Instead of sleeping that night I went to a yay-we're-going-to-Hawaii-party. It was a good time.



The airport was something new. The last time I was on a plane I was two, so this was pretty interesting!
Some random airport pictures:



I was tired. Don't judge me.

This made me think of Sergeant Nelson and I found incredibly funny

Sara and I duking it out in checkers

They have Ipads at the airport for use!!


Then came the plane ride. I was so excited because I got window seat! Though I freaked my mom out, when I called her. She told me to call her before we took off and so I did. Well, I was about to hang up when she told me to have fun. I guess she didn't like that I replied with "I will, unless the plane crashes and hung up.

She didn't exactly know I was taking that picture...


And those are my roommates

Did I mention that I hate heights?





















We had a layover at the L.A.X airport, and then we were off to Hawaii! It was a five hour flight and for the last two hours Sara Vienna and I played Spot It.






I found this to be kinda neat



We were so bored



HAWAII!! 
One last look at our plane

Ya, we're still at the airport



That's a pretty sweet tree!




The bus ride to our hotel:






Would you believe the gas prices?!




Right after we got to the hotel we left and walked to dinner. The hotel by the way is open. The entire first floor is just open there's no walls. But you can't get to the other floors unless you have a key. Dinner:

Proof that he wears shorts!

blame it on the warm weather

So on Thursday my friend Holly brought her project for art to ski practise (its a paer mache barbie) and put it by one of the walls because even though seasons just about over we're still decorating the girls side..So yesterday(which was fri) Im 30 min. late for practice (moms) and everyone else is out skiing and i walk into the room and the barbie's moved and scared the sh!t out of me. By the time I get back people are already coming back to the stadium to do sprints so I go do a quick warm up and stuff. I come back and everyone is in spandex and t-shirts. Well the spandex isnt surprising we girls do that all the time but the t shirts wow. I would've taken my jacket off but I ski in  t-shirt so I kept it on.  We splitt in to two teams and start. For those who dontt know what a sprint realy is it's basically a 100-200 yard dash in relay form on skis. It was really fun and one of the times we were in the lead Jirka (j=y) did this weird jumping thing where he just like...

UB Saturday

Today there was Upward Bound. We had TRiO day, which means that we visited BSU and took some sessions about college or preparing for college or careers, and partook in a college fair. This is how my day started. I woke up at 7:30  because Jake texted me good morning. The bus leaves the college at 8, I leave two miles away, my mom's at work and I'm still in my clothes from the day before with messy hair and craving a shower. 5 minutes later Jake is at my door. How'd I get ready in less than 5 minutes? I changed shirts, tossed a hoody over it, put my hair in a bun, and brushed my teeth at I found socks and packed  I wound up leaving a bunch of stuff at home, but I had my ipod which is all that really mattered. Bailey was there and so we sat together. She got to meet Colton and he complimented her on being chesty. I told him that I was the only one allowed to compliment her chest and Tim reprimanded him. Kinda. The guest speaker was funny and I liked the way he tie...

Does 2 hours count as an OD run?

Well if it does then I just did my first OD run. Btw, OD stands for Over Distance. I ran a total of 15.6 miles in 2hours 1minute and 8seconds. burned 1,467 calories, and managed not to hurt myself. Here's how it went: I started out from my house and ran along the lake to the fair grounds where I could enter the Mesabi Trail. Then I just ran along the trail for awhile in the cold, while it snowed, and was really windy. Then I decided I'd run along this branching of trail and  go to Deer River, it's only an additional 22miles I quickly lost the trail when it came out on a road and just turned around. From there I waved hi to a fisherman and his family and resumed running on the Mesabi Trail. Then I decided to follow another branch off to Gunn Park and from there run to my friend Max's. I was almost there when I realized  I was still only an hour in. So I did what anyone would do... I started running along random trails through the woods. I did come along a collapsed...
