After we well i and some other peps...Jack, NIck, Isabella, Skye, and David got done eating we gathered around and charged to the bus! By the way you guys should have seen this bus, it has a televisions and more in it! It is sweet! Then we went to the Smithsonian Museum! It was huge! This is were we got judged and other peps from Washington came in and asked us about our projects! They were very nice! After 4:00 we got to go back to the hotel and we did teambuilders. By the way you haven't met everyone until you meet Patrick he was awesome! He was the "leader" of the teams 7 & 8! HE got to test out his arm on me! He got wet paper towels and water and trew wet papertowels at me because i said ummmm.... and paused a lot...lol! And i am not joking he really did do it too! Also i got to watch Anthony laugh his head off and start to cry so hard that i thought i was going to die! He was funnier than heck!!! :-)
Luvs to everyone, miss you all,-

Hi! My Name is Skye Edwards and I'm having the time of my life. For all my friends who want to read this, I miss you.(That is...if I have any friends...do I...darn, I can't remember...what did I say my name was again?...Judge Jake told us to think out loud.
So how many people agree with me when I say science is fun? Yeah! You better! Otherwise Jake said he'd sit on your head.(lol) Most importantly, YOU MUST LEARN HOW TO SMILE! (And bite:)
So, no worries. Have fun and challenge yourself everyday. Who knows, maybe you'll end up learning something. I doubt it though.(jk)
Oh! And one more thing, don't die anytime soon and don't do anything too exciting or stupid without me.(I wouldn't want to miss it.)
P.S. Vampires are absolutely amazing. And that's something coming from someone who's immortal.
Everything is going well. We did the obesity challenge, the non-invasive surgery challenge, the Chemistry Challenge and the Whelmers. Everything is good otherwise. Only 2 of us got to go to the Children's Inn at NIH. Picked out of the hat. Nolland and Amy were priveallaged to go. Time to do it tommarrow.
Hey guys/ girls... what ever you are...lol! So i hope all is well still...jk! So today was another early riser! I think i used a bottle of cover up to cover up the rings under my eyes... joke... lol!

We love discovery. the chemistry lab was amazing, and we actually got to work with top scientsts on the challanges. The expiriance is just thrilling, and even though this is a competion, and we're all competing with each other, every one is building bonds with one another and i mean I'm leterally having the best time Ever.
This is Green Team Out
Hay this is Aaron from the GREEN TEAM and i just waNT TO EXPRESS TO EVERYONE HOW we"re GONA WIN !!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOWOOOOOOOOOO

Judge Jake is SO!!!! COOL!!!!!!!!!!! but im not saying that to suck up, Wink wink, hint hint,
We had this awsome Rootbeer social thingy and we had this cool converstation and i got to tell him abouut me, and what i like etc...... But overall it was so COOL!!!
This is GREEN TEAM Out
YO!!!!!!!!! Tou all the people reading this great log, i just want yu to know that we are the green mean fighting machine. teh CHALLEgenges were awesome. especially the avian flu challenge. I AM THE ALMIGHTY MAYOR! YOUR LIFE IS IN MY HANDS. they really make you think and so when you acomplish them it feels great. Judge Jake is such a liar. He told us that you almost never can acomplish the challnges. I think he just wanted to make us nervous. Anyway, although he lies, he is an awesome judge.
That's all for today!
see ya
Today was a great day. I did lots of cool things and I learned about the Avian Flu, mold, and did a lab relay.
The Avian Flu was my favorite part. I got to dress up as an ER surgeon and perform experiments on Joe Plastic. As you may know, Joe is plastic. We found that he had the Avian Flu and pneumonia, most likely from South Eastern Asia where he was visiting. We hooked him up to an air pump and gave him medications. He had a 60% chance of getting better.
In the mold, I had to go around the room and find mold samples. We also had to classify the different mold species from the ones that we found.
In the lab tech relay, we got to run around the room. In an hour and a half, we had to do eight different projects: Calculate density, identify lab equipment and tell their purpose, etc.
It was really fun but I've got to go because it is time for dinner. Bye.
Hey! Since we told you guys we would start form team builders I'll tell you what happened!
Team builders was amazing! We did all these really cool acttivites in teams! One time we had to talk about ourselves for like a min and couldn't pause say ummm or aaaaaaaaaa or we would get pummled wit a wet paper towel
WET!!!
OMG and the best part was ANTHONY!! He laughed so hard it seemed like he was dying!! Literally!!!!!!!!!! We all laughed so hard! His face turned all red and just... you just had to be there!
Well thats the end of monday!
Today we got to go to NIH for the first time! Pretty Exciting! Did I mention it was huge!!! There were some really smart peeps in this place but thats beside the point.
We first did the Obestiy challenge~
Kinda kewl! we had to choose a meal and then make a podcast about obestiy and helath!
We kinda had a meltdown becuase we thought pizza had more claroies than turkey sandwich and we were wrong and Shilpi was talkin about it and we were laughing so hard!
Shilpi~ I was all like, " I think you should choose the turkey becuase it has less I mean more I mean less I mean.. the pizza has oil!" YA Melt Down
Well that was ok! she pulled together pretty good!
Our next challenge was the looking inside one. Amy, Shilpi, and Nick gotta do the colonoscopy part while Nolan and Anthony did zebra fish! That was pretty good!!
Then we had lunch...........................
Then we had the Chemistry classic! We got to mix chemicals and it was the best! I think Shilpi really made a super cool story! And the way Amy, Nolan, Anthony, and Nick mixed them along with the story was really neat! WE thought so!! Well We'll tell u the story!
The lost Colors of Halloween
Little piggy went out to trick r treat and ment a dark wizard in an alley! The dark wizard said, " Little piggy, if you don't get me a million dollars I'll take away all the colors of Halloween." Scared little piggy went around the town and rang doorbells and said trick r money. All he got was $2.23. He took the money to the evil wizard and....... to be continued :)
SO anyway then we had our whelmers!! We all did great!
Then after that we came back and just chilled I guess! Well thats all for now.
OH! We changed have another team chant! It's
Together we can
2-4-6-8
