So, after being disappointed the first time I went rafting, I decided to give it another try. I went with the college group at my church again, though it was mostly different people from last year. I’m so glad I went because the rapids were SO much better this time around! the weather was way less hot, so that was a good thing; no sunburn this year! We didn’t swim at all this year, but that was ok because there were very few times when we weren’t in a rapid or preparing for the next one. I think everyone had a really good time! :)

the worth it I put on this goal is only given with reservation; I definitely did not feel the exclamation mark after it. While I guess I should say that all the trouble I went through (9 hours roundtrip from NYC, several hours on public transportation, standing in the rain with no umbrella for 3+ hours, waiting “inside” an uninclosed stadium in the off-and-on rain for 4 hours, and the list goes on) should make me say it wasn’t worth it, since I didn’t even get to see the judges OR even Ryan Seacrest. Despite all that, though, I’m still at least a little glad to be able to say that I did it. I mean, this is a major part of today’s pop culture and to be able to say that I participated, even minorly, in it is fun. AND, I’ll probably try again next year now that I know a little more about the process.
