Just got back!

I just got home from my second year of Advanced Space Academy (during international week) and it was the most fun I have ever had! I am so glad that Space Camp exists and that kids from all over the world have the amazing opportunity to take part in the adventure of a lifetime. Camp was amazing. We were doing something every minute of every day with no free time to spare but it didn't even matter because of how much fun it was. I'm so lucky to have met so many amazing people from so many different countries, and to have taken part in Advanced Academy this week. Space Camp forever! <3
I didn't represent my state; there were a lot of people from Tennessee this year. Nothing too exciting happened during missions this year which was a bit disappointing, but the rest of the camp experience definitely made up for it. Meeting people from all over the world was absolutely my favorite part. It's so amazing to learn about everyone's cultures all while learning so much about the space program. I really think that going to Space Camp is one of my total favorite things to do. I should also add that the crew trainers were AMAZING this year. Mine knew so much about any question I could think to ask! One thing that was different this year was they put all of the girls in Hab 2 and all of the boys in Hab1, so every girl in advanced Academy shared a room with about 30 other girls. It was strange to get used to at first but in the long run it made it that much better to see everyone and not just the people in your room. I'll try to find some pictures to post.
