My Favorite Breakfast and Lunch!

The morning started out earlier then usual, and since my roommate and I have a microwave in our room, my favorite breakfast of dinosaur egg instant oatmeal was on my agenda. Before I knew it we were off to be the audience of the live show C-SPAN, and have the opportunity to have our voices heard. The speaker that I found most interesting to listen to was Josh Earnest, the presidents assistant. He allowed me to further understand  issues that our president is facing and what his plans are to deal with them. His discussion on the debt ceiling also raised my attention dramatically.

Shortly after, my friends and I were able to tour around the National Mall. Our first stop was lunch at McDonald’s, and I was thoroughly excited because I had a fruit and yogurt type of food.  I had been wanting fruit and yogurt together for the past two weeks so our lunch just made my day! After eating, we traveled to the Natural History Museum and went through many exhibits with great interest. However, our way back to the bus consisted of a heavy down pour that drenched practically everyone! What was even better about this down pour was that I took my rain poncho out of my bag that morning!

After dinner, we had two more speakers left in our day. The first speakers that spoke about investigative journalism really caught my eye. The motivation they had to solve the murder case even with how many times they were pulled away inspired me. Our final speaker of the night, Dean Flagel, spoke about college admission and cracked quite a few laughs. It was a great reinsurance to be told that our grades in school are the majority of what colleges look at since I strive so hard to obtain my high grades.

On the other hand, I have an incoming call from my brother who is going to inform me on important topics for my congressional meeting tomorrow. I better get going!
