Today was a long day. Woke at 5 AM and then my family and my cousins, Cameron and Kerry headed to Cal State Long Beach at 6. It was the Special Olympics. We checked in and ate some doughnuts there and then started working.
We packed lunch for the volunteers and the athletes. We had to do over 8,000 lunches but we did it with over 200 volunteer help. Started around 6:30 and we were liked an assembly line. From one side, people put the buns on then it moved down to us. First we put the lettuce on but then we did it too fast so we shifted to packaging the lunches. I opened all the sandwich bags and placed it on the sandwiches. Then, they packaged it down.
After a break, we started putting the lunch bags together. We first opened some apples and placed it in bins. Then, we put the sandwiches into the lunch bags and it moved on. At around 9:00 AM we finsihed. We did it at a fast pace this year due to more volunteers. O ya, I also got a T-shirt for helping out. This is my 5th time helping out I think. It was been pretty intereesting the last 2 years packaging lunches at the Pyramid.
CHS Idol was tonight at our school. I went and it was a packed gym. Standing room only as there were 20 acts, performances, and solos. We had 2 breaks. They tried to make it like the real American Idol with the judges and it seemed pretty ligit. Josh Surh won the award after performing his song. There were quite a few bands which was cool. The Class Acts were neat too. You can find videos I posted on CHS Idol by going to youtube.com/ktcn414. It lasted for 3 hours but it was a pretty darn good talent show.
