Retreat 2014

This years retreat was during school. October 20 - 22. The retreat is a really fun leadership activity. It's an activity that was created not to long ago. This activity features bonding with everyone and planning out the school year. It's a three day, two night field trip. Periods one and three had downstairs rooms, and period five got upstairs. I really enjoyed this years field trip, but last years was the best. Some activities stayed the same which was stuff like the magic notes activity, interview, playing cards, and crabbing. My group had an easy time coming up with the talent routine. For chopped, my group made mochi. I liked period threes chopped. It was actually pretty good. For talent, period one won 1st, period five won 2nd, and period three won 3rd. For chopped, period five won 1st, period three won 2nd, and period one won 3rd. I was pretty satisfied with the results. My period one 1st or 2nd. Not 1st & 3rd, or 2nd & 3rd, in that order. While crabbing we caught pretty big crabs. We dug them up from their homes. We shared one flashlight at night. It was pretty bad(x. On the second night, we had s'mores and deep fried Oreos. Me, jah, tiana, Deriecka, Jayde, naya, & Petriese all stayed up till like four playing kemps, bs, and spoons. It was pretty fun. For the activities, we had core value bracelets, memory collages, and interviews. I had lots of fun.

Some highlights were that we got to bond, get things done, and this retreat was smooth. More highlights were that I got to play cards with people that I've drifted from, so we got to become just a little closer. Another highlight is that my group won first for chopped and 2nd for talent. Last highlight would be that the chopped and talent show was really good. All the talents were really funny and all the chopped were good. Lowlights were that people stayed in the room the whole time doing stuff they weren't supposed to be doing. Another lowlight was the that during one session, people went outside when the session wasn't over yet. Last lowlight would be that the gopro died on the first day. The stupid wifi was on the whole time, which made it die and I had no charger. Out of all things, I forgot to bring the charger for the gopro. Really cheana(x

I learned that my group is really crazy, and most of us don't have rhythm. There wasn't much to learn about my group. What I learned about the other groups were that they hangout with eachother and don't like to include me, tiana, emma and Taylor. Sorry, but that's what I've been noticing. It actually makes me sad because last year, we all were getting along so well. I what I learned about the chaperones which were laila shayna and Jolene, wasn't much. Laila, hung out with me a lot at the retreat. She helped me re create my memory collage. Shayna, ehh didn't learn much cause I already know what I do. Oh Jolene likes to pick on me(x what I learned about Mr. Ing was that he snores. LOL THATS IT(x that's all I know. I learned everything else before.

This was the retreat of 2014!!!!!
