The Journey to Atlanta: Wednesday, May 12

Well, it all started for me at 3:25 in the morning when I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. After battling with the temptation of returning my head back to my Spongebob pillow, I dragged my feet to the bathroom, threw on some clothes, and ran out the door to the awaiting cab.I got to the school in less than ten minutes and walked on the bus, where everybody who was there cheered for me. Fast forwarding through all the meticulous nonsense that is associated with the airport (check in, take off, landing, yadda yadda), we got to the Hilton and dropped off our bags for some lunch. After an hour of Arby's and deli food, we traveled to the wonderful world of CNN to take a tour.Wasn't the best part of the trip, but hey, the teachers planned it for a reason, right? The hotel was grandiose with hidden doors everywhere, but no iPod dock (to my devastation). Two televisions and a massive bed that's fun for jumping on (which I did if anybody's wondering).That I remember, we spent the duration of the day eating delicious pizza and sundaes and swimming in the indoor and outdoor pool.
