I saw this thing and I can’t figure out how anyone could possibly find participating to be fun. But hey, if she does, great job! ---

She goes to RIT so if any current troops get one from RIT, she’s the mastermind behind them. It’s coming in 2013 to buffalo/rochester, I might do that one with her. ---

So basically the only thing they don’t make you do is strip naked and starve yourself? Congrats to your sister though, I wouldn’t have been able to finish it. I can’t swim either. ---
