First and probably the most important event in the past months there was prom. I have a lot to say about that and im going to make another separate post about it. The events I want to tell you now about are my FCCLA trip to San Antonio (I've been there before but thats gonna be another post) and my trip to the Texas State Aquarium.
I'm a member of the FCCLA club of my high school. FCCLA stands for Future Career and Community Leaders of America and Wikipedia describes our mission like this:
To promote personal growth and leadership development through Family and Consumer Sciences education. Focusing on the multiple roles of family member, wage earner and community leader, members develop skills for life through: character development, creative and critical thinking, interpersonal communication, practical knowledge, and career preparation.
We do a lot of fundraisers and collecting donations to fulfill our goal to donate 5,000$ to the american cancer foundation. Most of my friends are in there and its always fun to do things with them. For the end of the school year we planned a trip to San Antonio. We visited the wax museum, ripleys believe it or not (a museum full of curiosities ) and we went to market square (that is a place where many mexican shops and restaurants are). All in all I had a lot of fun and it was a perfect day with my friends.
Another day I went to visit the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi. Ive never seen dolphins before so it was a very exciting event for me to watch a dolphin-show. It was amazing to see them doing tricks and jumps. There were a lot of other animals there but its kind of the same like our Aquarium in Germany so you can imagine how it was.
