Hoorah hoorah we're home! It's a bittersweet feeling, Worlds was sooo awesome. Out of the 40 teams competing in our division, we came in 17th! And there were 5 international teams ahead of us, so I guess you could say we got 12th in the U.S.! We were only 5 points behind the 2nd place winner in our Long-Term, but we did really average in Spontaneous. But wow, 17th at Worlds is totally amazing! We're all really happy.
I learned a lot from Worlds. I used to think that the teens in Japan and Poland and other countries were so different from me, that just because they spoke a different language or were from another country, there was a huge gap between us all. But really, there's not. When I was talking to other 14, 16 year olds from other countries, I found that there's really no difference, we're all connected. They're into music, bands, movies just like we are. They're just like us.
I've got pics of Polish kids, Korean kids...oh my gosh, this one little boy from Hong Kong, he traded me a cool Chinese cartoon character key chain thing for my cowboy hat! i've got a picture of him, too.
Ok, well I'm about to like pass out I'm so freakin' tired, so i'll put a million pictures on tomorrow of all the friends I made. I had so much fun!
