Yesterday was the NHS field trip to Columbus. I caught a lot of flak from some fellow classmates because they said why don't you go to King's Island with MaST especially since you've never been (yes, it's true) and you'll be going to a kid's science museum. My response was that you don't miss what you've never done, so riding rollercoasters doesn't have a real big appeal to me, and I really don't feel like working math problems while visitng KI for the first time, as well as CoSI (the Columbus Science Museum) is not so much a kid's place as fun for all ages (in addition to being an awesome place to begin with). My best buddy Jason had to cancel at the last minute for drum tryouts which I wished him the best of luck for but it ended up that he didn't know they were postponed so I (as well as he) was pretty pissed off that he missed going with us, but what's done is done. Anyway, the bus ride up was uneventful because Kev-O decided to hog his CD player and his Queen CD all to himself the whole ride, so I had little to do but stare out the window, try to play a round of Euchre with some other AHS NHSers, and chit chat with my other best bud Stobart. So we get there, and we go to the Columbus City Center, which was really a big 3 story mall with very little to do. Pretty much everybody there bought stuff, and I felt out of place because I didn't. Chris and I hung out, walked around, and had Sbarro for lunch. Then we went to CoSI. On the bus ride there, I borrowed (finally) Kev-O's (sounds like a cereal) CD player and sang Queen really high really loud and everybody in the immediate area laughed at me. We watched a STOMP presentation called PULSE.......no words, just Indian dances, and some scantily clad chinese guys drumming, and some fat dude all painted yelling at the camera, and some sweet breakdancing, and some salsa chick tapping her heels faster than I could imagine was possible (especially with her dress like it was), and some tribal dancing, and some sweet inner-city Marching Band competition and some other cool stuff. The placed we watched it in was called the John H. Glenn Center (hoo-rah) and it had some pretty kickin' speakers (down in the subwoofers). Then we partied around CoSi for a few hours. I got all excited about the Space exhibit even though I knew everything there and more, but it was still pretty interesting to see how they present it to people who don't love it like I do (by the way, those 3 times I crashed on the simulator I was just goofing off, the fourth time I really tried and that's why I docked so beautifully). Then we went to the Underwater exhibit for Casey and I climbed into the sub (no problem because I'm short) and sucked helium and sang Queen, the high notes, without trying. Then we went outside and I lifted a car up with my bare hands (there was a huge lever). Then we went to the Inventions exhibit.

More stuff happened, but I'll finish after dinner.
