well i got home from boston late last night. got as much sleep as i could and then got up and went to church. confirmation sunday was today and i had to play my trumpet for a couple of songs. wasnt too bad. thursday we arrived in boston at about 1:30 their time (12:30 our time) and got on the subway to get to the hotel. once we checked in and got settled, we decided to do a little sight-seeing. we headed over to boston commons and began walking the freedom trail, making frequent stops along the way. afterwards, we ate dinner and then went back to the hotel. watched a disappointing red wings game and then went to bed. we got up on friday and went down to krispy kreme to get some breakfast. we then started our day. it was a cold, rainy, miserable day so we decided to do some indoor stuff. we went to the new england aquarium first. it was fun except for the fact that it was field trip day and u couldnt walk ten feet without some little kid smacking into ur kneecaps. we survived. the other chaperone with us had some deep desire to go to the jfk library/museum (she was about the only one) so we made our way over there. it started with a 17 minute video about somethin. i dont know cuz i fell asleep about 3 minutes in. then there were a bunch of galleries that we walked around and another movie that i slept through. it was okay but not what i wanted to be doing while vacationing in boston. then we had to go to the opening meeting that night. very long and boring. stupid people asking stupid questions. but we did get free ice cream. saturday was the actual tournament. i was bored all day and kept busy walking back and forth from the tournament room to the mall. the team obviously didnt do as well as last year but we didnt expect them too. they did worse even then we expected, not even coming in the top half. it was really hard to hafta sit and watch without bein able to play. but IMMEDIATELY after the final round ended, we ran out of the convention center and into a cab that was waiting for us. we had a 6:15 flight and the tourney ended at 5:20. but we did make it and are back home now. i took a nap after church today, but woke up feeling worse than when i did before i went to sleep. i cant stop coughing and my throat hurts everytime i do. it sucks. but thats about it. it was a fun weekend, but now i gotta go back to school tomorrow. bummer.
