January 17th

Today was the last work day of our time in New Orleans. The day was a bittersweet one. All were relieved knowing that there weren't going to have to wake up at 6am to prepare breakfast and head out. However, I noticed that I wasn't alone in being a bit upset at not finishing our initial goal (starting to paint by Friday). As my previous blogs moreso focused on disappointment, I will end with a good note! :)

It was great seeing the freshman class in its bonding experience with each other. With the help of working together at sites, eating beignets together, walking around the French Quarter, and spending time mixing up groups to spend time with one another, was an enriching site! I also really enjoyed the company of the other eight chaperones.

I had the pleasure of taking pictures and recording some footage to compose a 5-7 minute video about this year's New Orleans trip. Wait on it!

I also made a promise to myself that no matter what, I will return to New Orleans every two years! If New Orleans was a person, I'd tell him/her to hold me to it.

Peace.
