last thursday i got on a bus at 10 in the morning with a bunch of other people and we went to the minneapolis hilton. we joined 1300 other highschoolers at the 57th minnesota ymca youth in government weekend. we all wrote a bill before the weekend. on thursday and friday we were split into committees and we debated all the bills and weeded out the bad ones. all the bills that passed were debated in their senate/house. if they passed there then they went to the opposite senate/house. then they went to the lieutenant governer to get signed or vetoed. if then were vetoed then on sunday we overrid them. it was a very long weekend. but it was fun. friday night we had a carnival with "karaoke" which was actually just a mosh pit and movies and blow up jumpy things. on saturday night we had the governers ball. it was a lot of late nights and early mornings and jersey shore. so i am going to be completely dead tomorrow.
