~:[CH2 - Day 150]:~ Smooth as Silk

~:[CH2 - Day 150]:~ Smooth as Silk
Today went well despite the fact that I was exhausted from a long week. However, I survived the day and headed to UCLA for a day I have been waiting for for some time. Arriving at UCLA, I headed to one of my favorite places, Noodle World and then head back to Royce and picked up my VIP pass! Originally sitting with my students, I moved to the SECOND ROW just in front of Kofi Annan and was probably the closest to him as he gave his address at the podium! Kofi Annan was simply amazing and his responses during his discussion were inspiring and insightful. My respect for him grew and I almost fainted as I shook his hand and introduced myself as a Model UN advisor. I was so nervous that I forgot to take a picture with him :( ... regardless, knowing that I talked to him and shook his hand was good enough for me. After saying goodbye to my students, I met up with Ian, Thien-Nam, Rachel, Sonia, Melody, and Hannah! I also ran in to Dipalee, Kimberly and Madeline! It's always great to see how the alumni are doing and running into them and catching up with them at school. I posted two pictures today since I promised Hannah that I would say how amazing she is on my daily blog. She swiped us today, so I am willing to go outside my normal one photo post for her. By the way, she is collecting money for her mission, support her please! :D Anyway, after all of that, I jumped in the car with Thien-Nam and we headed up to Clovis and got in just past midnight for the California State Track and Field Championships. Our athlete competes at 4pm tomorrow. More to come about this tomorrow! Exhausted ... good night!
