Oprah part 2

Thursday we had the other half of our competition which was the team activity, also in the Galt hotel. Throughout the week, we also went shopping in the FFA Mega Store, and all the smaller shops that were set up there. I also won a pair of sunglasses, a water bottle, and a $25 gift card (which I used to buy the new Fall Out Boy album and the new Panic! at the Disco album which are both PHENOMENAL, by the way). I bough numerous things, which I can't remember all of them off the top of my head right now. We also had to run our Hall of States booth, which is basically a booth that describes all about Nevada agriculture and what we do here. Friday was our luncheon, where the FBM team found out our placing and got a delicious meal. That night, we went to a pumpkin carving show place, where there were THOUSANDS of pumpkins carved to look cool (many of which had EXTRAORDINARY details), and were placed along a forested area and lit up so you followed the path of Jack - O - Lanterns. Saturday we went to a local FFA chapter, and went through their haunted corn maze. It was about a mile or so, and a lot better than I expected. Although it was a lot of people screaming at you and people jumping out at you, Tyra fell flat on her butt and it was hilarious. It was better than expected, and i was thoroughly impressed. Sunday we went to a brewery, and then had to catch our flight home. This flight was a little bit more interesting. From Kentucky to Vegas, I got dizzy and felt like puking (woo, how fun), but I ate some food, and lied on the floor during our layover and felt better from the trip from Vegas to Reno. On the second flight, however, Jaycob completely lost his mind. He started crying hysterically because his hot chocolate was too hot, and he wanted pretzels instead of peanuts, but later remembered he didn't like pretzels and cried more. Pretty much made that flight bearable. I think we were all just exhausted though, and that's what made him snap. I think I'm still running on Kentucky time though, which is three hours ahead of Reno, because I keep waking up at 2 in the morning, and I'm tired by 9 at night. Hopefully I acclimate soon, or I'm screwed.
