As I previously meantioned, although, these events are a blast, they can also be extremely stressful and long. Several of the days participants quizzed from 7:45 pm. to 6:00 pm. Additionally though, to the quizzing we also had services/chapel, a service project and time for fun and games. During this time my siblings and I were able to get to know our friends from our district and region better. It was a great time of fellowship. More times than not, we stayed up and talked until 1 Am or later until sleeping and awakening again between 5:30 and 6:00 am or another full day.
Friday was the last day of quizzing for most individuals, several quizzers participated in the championship rounds on Saurday, however, my siblings and I finished Friday afternoon. This afternoon was challenging for me in particular. Honestly, I shed a few tears reflecting on all of the great times I have had while quizzing and it was very sad to see those years end.
On the other hand though, I am excited to see a new chapter unfold before me as my future expands to include my upcoming semesters at Southern Nazarene University. Although I am thrilled to be attending there, I am also nervous and apprehensive. I would greatly appreciate your prayers as I prepare for this transition in the weeks to come.
