No More WORK!!!!

To start off I just wanted to let everyone know that we (Canada) won a distinguished delegation award for NMUN (YEY!!!!) only about 70 schools won an award and only 30 won distinguished. The only award higher is Outstanding Delegation (which only 17 very experienced schools won. We are all very happy and very proud! This is the first time at the conference for all of us and we all kicked serious butt.


I'm sorry I didn't post yesterday I was really tired. I went out last night to Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center even though I had to wake up this morning to go to the UN to vote. It was really cool to see the board light up with everyone's vote (I made a video). When we voted yesterday in our committee, all 4 of our resolutions passed (I worked on 2 and my partner Nonie worked on 2). The work was well worth it but it's really nice to be done and be able to enjoy the city. Tonight we are going to try to go to the Empire State Building =)
Closing ceremonies were really fun because they were in the actual General Assembly Hall at the UN. I took tons of pictures and I have a picture of me at the podium.
I'll post pics and videos tonight because they take about 20 mins each to upload and I wanna get out and enjoy the city after an intense week.

Thank you all for your encouraging comments this week!!! I love you all and can't wait to show you all of the pics and videos I have because they are more than I could ever possibly post.
