AYE AYE SIR!!!!!

So I'm going to start my string of posts with my latest adventure and work backwards.
My recent at the Academy was very tiring. We woke up at 5:30 every day and got yelled at by actual drill Sergeants. Then we had to eat breakfast in 10 minutes, ran a couple miles, took classes with tests at the end, then lights out at 10:00. Actually I'm joking, none of that happened. Okay. Here's a the short version of my adventures. Details would probably overload this computer.

Monday- Flew in at 9ish. Taken to the Academy where I sat around until five to have dinner. Played some capture the flag. Unpacked. Went to bed.

Tuesday- Met my group (I was in Blue 1). Our leader was 2nd Class Midshipman Jack James. That means he was going into his third year at the Academy. His job was to take our group to all the activities on time. He was pretty cool, especially since he enjoyed pranking people at breakfast. There were 5 other people in my group. 120-140 kids were at camp all together. We went to the Air and Space museum in DC. Watched an IMAX about the Hubble telescope and then walked around for a bit. The WWII exhibit was awesome. After we went back, we took a tour of the Academy. Had a delicious cookout and played ultimate frisbee for three hours. Then had free time and lights out at 11:00.

Wednesday- Took two classes in the morning:Forensic Chemistry and Control Systems.
Two in the afternoon: Cryptography and Sound Waves and Light.
Played sports. Had free time until lights out. Also had Blue and Gold, during which we all gathered and gave comments on the day and had announcements.

Thursday- Classes: Airplanes/Rockets, Fluids Lab, Boat Building, and Brittle/Ductile Metals.
Played sports. Ice cream social after dinner. Blue and Gold at 9:45. Free time until lights out at 11:00.

Friday- Classes: Robotics, Photography, Biometrics, Lie Detector (this was my favorite set of classes).
Played sports, had a talent show (no, I didn't participate because I had nothing to show). Blue and Gold at 9:00, lights out at midnight.

Saturday- Pack, another Robotics class (in which we used a calculator to control a chassis- I know, cool huh?), present our robot at the science fair when the parents showed up, had the awards ceremony and got a certificate of completion, then left for the airport immediately afterward. Immediately as in, get out of my seat, say goodbye, and leave.
One more thing. On the way from Baltimore to Detroit, for some reason I still don't know, I got moved up to first class! It was pretty exciting. Kind of wish I hadn't spent all that money on snacks to take on the airplane because they offered some pretty good stuff.

That's it. A long post, but much shorter than the version I told my parents, which took about and hour and a half to tell. Next post will probably be this afternoon if I have time, which I probably will.
p.s. I probably have a ton of typos and punctuation errors, so please excuse me. I was trying to do this quickly before I left to take my written test for my drivers license. I passed my driving test yesterday (YES!!!!). Hopefully I'll be coming home with a license.
