So~ I was away at Opti Minds State Finals this weekend.
Friday was Music Fest. we played well...except for a obvious squeak by Tim D: but it was really fun! Straight after that, I went to Oak's Festivals - our accommodation for the duration of opti minds state finals, a 4.5 star hotel. Me, Yee Sum, Cindy, Linda and our supervisor Nickie stayed together on the 19th floor. The rooms were apartment style with a basic kitchen, living area, dining area, 1 bathroom, and 2 rooms - one of which was an ensuite. Me and Yee Sum shared the room with the ensuite (:
We spent Saturday night in the Nat/Micaela/Melissa/Evelyn/Angela's room, redoing our idea market poster since they decided to change it. Slept at 1.15 ish~ D: eveyone else slept at around 2~3 playing truth or dare well I was back in my own room finishing my MAB assignment QQ missed out on so much D:
Woke up at 8 ish~ and had breakfast. Later on in the day, Shelly sent me a photo of her breakfast and I was so jealous D: I had 4 pieces of toast + strawberry jam for breakfast + a glass of milk...and later at around 12 ish I ate two sandwich burgers...+ a muffin :L I eat so much lol Got to UQ at 11 ish and had the opening/welcome speech whatever you call it. When the lady was introducing the teams of the Brisbane West region, she accidently read out last years list LOL after lunch~ was the idea market. It was ok... was kinda chicken at first since I didn't know our new idea well enough but as the idea market progressed on, I opened up and started explaining it to others :D
At night we had an "underground Diso/Party/ BBQ" which was held in the underground carpark since it was raining outside. Ate so much I felt like vomiting :/ didn't really party since I wasn't in the mood so I just sat with Nat since she felt sick too. And then~ we went back to the hotel. Me and Yee Sum stayed in our room since we were internet starved and wanted to use my Iphone for internet :L I charged it last night and by 6 there was only 3% battery left lol since everyone wanted to go on fb :L
Anyways~~ turns out the other girls went swimming or something while Yee Sum was on msn on my phone + on my bed :L and I was trying to do some Eng :L
I was so jealous of Yee Sum >: I was kinda high...I was trying to be a fish and flipping up and down on the bed lol... but my actual mood wasn't that great... it dropped heaps >: Went to sleep at around 11~11.30 U_U
Sunday: Woke up at 5.30 -dies- O_Q Went to UQ and started preparing for our challenge...... 3 hours later.... lunch! :D lawl... after lunch we had to present our challenge. We had to go first so we went into the prop room to prepare and this parent from Mackay who was on "door monitoring duty" told us that we weren't supposed to touch any of our stuff yet. Turns our we were supposed to and so we start putting on our costumes and then she's like, come in girls you should listen to this. And when the host finished the challenge intro we go back out to finish preparing and the lady tells us that we have to start our performance now = = so we didn't get time to prepare properly >( after our performance we watched the other teams and wasted a whole lot of time doing nothing while the judges worked out which team should win and blah. We didn't win but we got a Opti Minds Spirit award... lol xD and then were dismissed at 6 thank goodness. I was so dead through out the day :/ all those head aches from lack of sleep U_U and so I wasn't in a very good mood either ~_~
Overall I think Opti Minds was fun, but not as fun as people make it out to be :/ if I was given a choice again about whether or not to go to the State Finals I don't think I would say yes.
