Chicken or Beef?

Hello PC friends!

So we've been home for about 42 hours now, and I've had time to reflect, and get a little better.
the last day at NACA was an interesting one. It started with us going to 2 ed sessions in a row, of course dunkin was the first trip of the day. The first ed session I went to was about making meetings more important. Unfortunately, I can't say I really learned too much. I didn't really see how meetings were apart of the Ed session. We talked about the purpose of meetings and finding out organization mantra. One school's was "shut up or show up" quite forward but effective. There were a few activities that the presenter talked about that were interesting like having a game where you give a trophy continuously to a new general member every week, which is a cute idea I thought. Besides that there wasn't anything that I thought applied to PC or what we do. The second Ed session was about how Dr. Seuss taught us about leadership. It was really interesting but we didn't do any activites and only 5 Dr. Seuss books were highlighted. I was hoping it was going to be more interactive. Then we checked out of the hotel and walked over to the showcase. The only interesting act I remembered was Anthony Snape, an Australian, acoustic guitarist. He was pretty funny. The emcee was funny too, her name was tig and she taught us how to sound like a curtain, weird I know, but cool. After that we went to lunch in the food court with some very special people. =) Then on to the third Ed session! This one, was....uhhh interesting. It was about spirituality which in my group was about god...so that was different, needless to say it didn't really pertain to PC. After the Ed session we got another Ed session on Samantha Fox, Chicken and Beef by Michael Miller. SO FUNNY. It was time to leave the hotel/conference, totally bittersweet. On the way to the train we met multiple cranky old women as well as witnessing Matt Miller taking a tumble. The first words out of his mouth were "I hope nothing's broken!" Quite the Acrobat Matt. Then we almost lost him at Quincy Center. We finally made it back to the car and traveled back to PC. NACA was fun, and I can't wait to go to regionals again!

peace, love & naca.
