Today, we are coming to the end of our field school
experience. We worked all morning on our final
presentations, which was pretty stressful, but it was nice to kind of have a chill
morning without anything scheduled for us to do as a class. My morning consisted of not having to set an alarm to wake up, then I
went to get coffee with Chase and Alexis. I got my two cappuccinos so I felt
twenty times better after my caffeine. Then, until about 4:30 pm we worked on
our presentations.

Once 4:30pm came around, we sat in a circle and just made it super casual so it was not as stressful as I thought it would be. I went
third so I could get it out of the way, and it was nice not having to worry
about repeating things. We had presentations until about 8:45pm because Chase
took 32 minutes. Then we had dinner which was sausages and left over pasta
which was soooooooo good.

To end our night, we went down to Nicotina with Dr. Reinhard, and got some yummy gelato. After that we went to the Karaoke Bar, which
was a very good time. Dr. Reinhard and Alexis sang Time of My Life, which was
awesome! Me, Tommy, Kylie, Ruth, Maggie, and Emily sang some Spice Girls, which
was super fun because I love the Spice Girls. Then, we sang Beauty and the Beast,
but we were supposed to sing How Far Will I Go from Moana, but it got mixed up
with Haley, but we still sang in the background. We did not do as much today as we have done other days, but it was a super fun day and
ended it with Karaoke with some awesome people!
