It just gets more and more like a tv show everyday. After a very sleepy presentation by Chuck Todd, I introduced Dean Flagal and we heard a wicked funny presentation about college admissions.
We then made a brief stop at the mall where we used our food vouchers to get whatever. I didn’t end up spending any money… minus the smoothie I was dying for… because I decided I want some GMU clothing to take back home.
The worst part of the day was at the Capitol. We waited forever to go on our tour and one of the leader-ladies was so rude and pushy and talked to us like we were five-year-old morons. The tour was brief, rushed, crowded, the guide was not loud enough, and overall just not worth the wait at all. To top it off we then had to wait forever to leave the building and couldn’t sit down. We finally got to leave, but to our surprise it was just to wait some more to get a group photo done when the entire group wasn’t even ready yet. awesome.
One of the more interesting things of the day made headlines: the Capitol shooting. It’s crazy to think it happened only an hour after we had finally departed the grounds.
We preceded back to campus… heard a boring speaker (excellent nap opportunity)… and then got to go hangout or attend a media related workshop. Already having experience in how broadcasting works, I opted to go with my group and actually learn journalism… what a concept. Lauren went over some basics and helped us prep for our press conference tomorrow by helping us formulate topics to discuss and to overall understand what it entails.
Highlight of the day… DANCE PARTY. After Lauren’s lesson we partied it up with Zac’s tunes and mad candy. We then took the party to the area between the dorms and I busted it out. Kate captured it all on video so I can’t wait to see those get posted. Definantly a good end to the day and a great prep for tomorrow’s gala…
