The conference officially came to a close this morning with a farewell breakfast and closing remarks. It really is a bummer having tis experience come to an end.

As far as the Orlando experience went for the UVU crew, I played the part of chauffeur. I took a group of students over to Universal Studios in the morning and then another group closer to noon. I helped Henry Cervera chase after a lost debit card before making a pick up from Universal Studios. I then returned to the hotel for a quick nap until it was time to pick up the last group. It was fun driving a massive 15 passenger van in an unfamiliar city (I’m actually serious even though that sentence sounds sarcastic).

We regrouped and enjoyed a dip in the pool and then went out to dinner as a group to the local Waffle House. The food was great, the quality was amazing, and the staff was so friendly.

It is sad sitting here in the hotel lobby writing this knowing that our time together as a group is coming to an end. Its neat to see how a group of relative strangers come together to learn and grow. These people around me don’t realize it but I see them as my friends, my peers, and my colleagues I’m excited to see the amzing careers that are waiting for each of them.
