2nd Nov 22

So I have another Nov 22 . Another Saturday. Having a repeat of the same day. So weird. There has to be some time travel involved I swear. We crossed the International date line. So as of now I am BEHIND eastern time and not ahead anymore. We have passed you and are experiencing the same day but now hours behind. Its hard to explain and hard to comprehend but it did happen. My year is now going to be 367 days (leap year + extra day). Slept in and then had a Ambassador Ball meeting and we are putting together decorations and planning for the ball that is like 10 days or something. Next was lunch which was a huge BBQ and fresh fruit and icecream. It was freaking amazing. Definitely better than tacos. I also had the World Food Summit from 1-4 pm where a bunch of students got together and represented countries and had to discuss their positions and discuss solutions to two given crises. It was a lot of fun. I was Egypt and it was interesting to get involved in something that most people in the US aren’t thinking about which is the food shortage in the world. After took a long break that involved hanging with the girls and dinner. Then it was back to the 10 page paper. Finished, did a quick workout and then went to the Auction. The auction was a bunch of items/items/vacations donated by people on the ship. Rob and Emma were the MCs and they made the productions. People were betting up to $600 of some stuff. It was crazy and hilarious. It went on for a solid 2 hrs. Sara Kasie and I just sat through it and observed people throwing away their money. The only good thing about it is that the money is all going to charity.
