The best time of the year....

...is when we get to field trip it to cedarville college for TEAMS aka this super hard engineering/physics multiple choice/short answer test. It is the highlight of my year, along with a few others. This past Feb. was my, kels, logan, and amy's third time competing in it.

We bring lots of food and build a tower [pic]. Our food supply was minimal b/c we didn't have very many people on our team. Most of the other schools bring text books to use when they take the test. FM--nah. We don't care that much. It's a day out of school for us to go and see how much we actually do know, or rather don't. I mean, after all, our ENGLISH teacher was our coach this year, lol. She was pretty pumped about receiving a plaque. It's hanging up in her room!

We eat all morning and afternoon, do our school homework during the short answer time left over, laugh a lot, and just have a good 'ol time. TEAMS is a great stress reliever. Usually you have 8 people on a team. Not enough signed up this year to have two full teams, so we were just going to do 6 ppl on each of the 2 teams. But with all the snow days and what not, people backed out. We ended up with 2 teams of 4.

My team (me, Kels, Logan, and Bret [pic]) ended up scoring 26 out of 80.

The other team (Amy, Tyler, Kyle, and Zach) got 21 out of 80 correct.

We may have scored the lowest 2 scores of anyone there, but I do believe we did have the most fun. We can be quite creative when it comes to making up short answer answers.

I will miss TEAMS and all of it's greatness. It was the one and only field trip I looked forward to. Oh well, here's to some great times.
