Not One Minute
Wasted
My summer was different from that of
any of the other Marshall students. It was unique because I chose to
further my education. I attended a summer college preparation program
called the Rural Alaska Honors Institute (or RAHI) in Fairbanks. It
may sound like my summer was pretty lame, but I had a lot of
fun.
I left for Fairbanks on May 29th,
and, along with 50 other students from across Alaska, I started
classes on Memorial Day. My schedule was pretty hectic for a 16 year
old. I attended classes from 8:00 A.M. until 5:00 P.M. each day from
Monday through Friday. The classes I attended were Computer Survey,
University Communications, Study Skills, Alaska Native Studies and
Alaska Native Dance. I also had to attend mandatory study hall from
7:00 to 9:00 P.M., Sunday through Thursday. On week days I did what I
needed to do to pass my classes, and on weekends I went shopping, to
the movies, or participated in other activities the family groups
organized.
My favorite outing was when some of
the family groups took a trip to Zip Zap, where I enjoyed myself
playing arcade games and laser tag. I loved playing laser tag because
every time I played, the team I was on won, and I have to admit that
it is a very addictive game. I also enjoyed going to the theater
where I watched a total of five new releases during the six weeks
there.
I returned home on July 10th and I've
been volunteering my spare time with Ameri Corps. We've been trying
to raise money for a teen center all summer by setting up activities
for kids and selling hamburgers, french fries and pop. For
volunteering I received a sweater and a baseball cap with Ameri Corps
logos on them. When I wasn't studying or volunteering I was out on
boat rides, camping, hanging out with friends at ungodly hours, or
sleeping. All in all, I don't think that I wasted one minute of my
summer.
