Wheated

Well, here I am, back from the wonderful weekend that was TEC 71. Working on the Wheat team was definitely a different experience that working Support, but both are amazing. It was rather interesting, being at a TEC weekend, and yet not doing the normal Support things. This is the part of the blog entry where I make fun of the Kitchen team for not providing plates for Thursday night's meal. And here are a few highlights (of which there were many).

Talks - It was interesting to actually watch the talks, as opposed to only hearing them during the team meetings. I noticed as the weekenders become more and more interested in the talks as the weekend went on. The talks were all very good; the most powerful being (in my opinion) one that described in detail the crucifixion of Christ. It was similar in effect to watching The Passion of the Christ.

The Champion - It had been nine years since I'd seen it last, and being there during practice and the actual performance was amazing. The weekenders cheered and booed as the battle happened. It was perfect.

Table Commissioning - First experience with table commissioning since I was a candidate ten years ago. It was rather interesting to see the differences in the tables, and watch the tables do a little guessing on YTL.

And of course, I always enjoy the activities of Saturday night.

Now, the main question is: What am I going to apply for for the next TEC? Whatever it is, they should have my application by the end of the week.
