So, this weekend was quite busy... like most have been in recent weeks! I headed out to Bismarck on Friday afternoon for the North Dakota Student Association meeting that was to be held during the evening (and into the night-time) hours of Friday and then on Saturday morning as well. My involvement with the organization hasn't been all too long... In fact, the only reason I found out about it was because I felt that if this organization endorsed SB2278 it would speak volumes about how the young people of ND feel toward the bill... long story short, they did fully support it and I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the organization... so at the last meeting when nominations were being taken for committee chairs for the student affairs committee... I had myself nominated... and to make another fairly long story short... I was elected into the position on Saturday morning. I'm really excited to have the opportunity to work with students and schools from around the state of ND. I know that there is a TON of work that needs to be done in order to get some of these schools up to the place that the should have been years ago.... but, I am eager and excited to take on the challenge... and I've met some great new friends along the way. It's been an interesting and exciting ride... but one that I am thankful to have had.
Mikey also had a fun weekend. He was in Grand Forks at a poker tournament and even though he got "rivered" he walked away quite happy. You see, during a short intermission he decided to use the facilities and on his way back walked past the pull tab counter... he stopped dead in his tracks and decided that he needed to spend the $1 in his pocket on A pull tab... well, as luck would have it... he won $400 on that single dollar purchase... he's one of the most lucky boys ever... in celebration we purchased groceries, he bought a magazine and I got myself a vanilla chai tea at starbuck's... here's to a good weekend :)
