Thursday: Our DECA organization at school had a conference in Dearborn, Michigan. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency in the Fairlane Town Center. The hotel was very modern with beautiful rooms. I roomed with Amanda Hladki and Ann Tyler. Our room was #870. We went on a tour of the hotel. Amanda taught me to play Rummy.
Friday: We went to Fairlane Mall to look around in the stores. We had breakfast at Elias Brothers. Then, I had my test in the Food Marketing Supervisory Level competition. We played more Rummy and watched soap operas.
Saturday: Took my 2 role plays. I thought I did pretty well with the first role play. It had to do with ways to cut back on expenses in the grocery store. I talked with Amber Chumley who said she was going to Central Michigan University. Later on, I went shopping with Mike McCullum and Ann Tyler.
Found out the maid took Amanda's $400 ring. She filed a report with security. Amanda, Ann, and I had to sneak out of our room in order to eat a pizza without Mike, as he was driving us crazy.
Then, we went to the awards assembly.
Sunday: We went to a 2nd awards assembly. Amber Chumley and Jason Mosher won from our school. I think we all had a good time at the conference. It felt more like a vacation to me than a competition. Wish I had won an award at this one.
