RYLA was a lot of fun. I met people from cities/towns in Michigan that I've never heard of. For example, in my group (number 10) there was a Japanese exchange student named Kao. Our group name was "Hieu's Jyu" because Hieu was one of our group leaders (the other was Jenny An) and Jyu means 10 in Japanese. Every group did their own cheers and my group cheer seemed to confuse everybody. All the groups had to do a 5 minute skit on a world problem and what students could do about it. We did ours on pollution. Though we didn't win, it was still pretty good. lol We had 5 Asians out of 11 people in our group, Hieu, who was also an Asian called it the "Asian Invasion." We had 3 speakers; my favorite was SunJay. He was so funny; I've never laughed so hard during a motivational speech. We should invite him to make a speech at Pioneer. The food was also great. Unfortunately, I was always thirsty because the water in Canada is nothing like our water in Ann Arbor. I strongly encourage people to go next year. You will learn a lot and have fun at the same time and meet people from all over the world.

Oh, so that's what Hieu's Jyu meant;;; Yah, I didn't get it either. Our group's name was the 4ces(forces).
I got by the second time I heard the cheer. Our cheer was pretty lame... but still cool
Sunjay was soo funny! The muscles around my mouth hurt because I was laughing soo hard! Anyway, I'm so happy that you went... learning soo much and playing king's in the corner... :)
