State N.Y.O

The first post about this I said I was going with my dad to state, but I was wrong I only went with my cousin and other people. It was Ok though, but I wanted to go with my dad, but i guess not. I had fun kind of, but some parts I felt like I was left out, but I think that was my fault because I was kind of home sick. Well only a little but not a lot. Plus the first two night at the hotel or in Anchorage I couldn't sleep because the bed was all what you call it. Or maybe I was being to nervous and all excited that I was in Anchorage and all that.
Oh yea I almost forgot to tell you how many people were there and all that. A hole lot of people were there from different villages and places. But from LKSD there was like a total of 21 including the couches and chaperons. There was 16 students and there was, Yako McCarr, Rena Tony, Albert Tunuchuk, Delcie Davis, Ted Whitman, Megan Friday, Andrew White, Alicia Chagluak, Daniel Andrew III, Amanda Black, Thomas Albert, Laura Therchik, Moses Charles, Chinace Egoak, Frank Link, and Me Jackie Joekay.
The coaches and chaperons are Charlie Isaac, Paul Paul, Marty Smith, Monica Hecklinger, and Sharon Wagner.
That all the people who went to state from LKSD. I wanted to do all the event but it was ok. Some part of the day, I was sleepy and before I did two foot I closed my eyes, but then I couldn't sleep and all. I went to bed around 3 that night and couldn't sleep after I woke up at 5, well I just had my eyes closed and moving around to get comfy but then I couldn't.
Well I have to go and do some other work, I'll write more later. Take care everyone.

Native Youth Olympics (N.Y.O)

Native Youth Olympics also known as (N.Y.O) this year was really awesome. We have been going to other village to N.Y.O meets. Our first semester of N.Y.O, we went to Chefornak, Akula, and Kwethluk. First semester there was also a Napakiak meet but then we didn't go because the river was freezing up or we didn't know if it was safe to go on. When we went to the first meet which was Chefornak, we went by helicopter to Bethel because the river was trying to freeze and was really thin ice. I think thats all we went to and then this semester we went to Eek, Napaskiak, and Akula was the Districts meet. There also was Nunap but then we didn't go. Couple times I got first place in the events but then the only event that I got first place in every village we went to was Two foot.
I get to go state for two foot this year and also my dad (who is the coach) gets to go state. I am really excited to go. I am going with my cousin/best friend and that is really awesome because I'm going with my cousin/best friend and my dad. Well I guess thats all I have to say until next time I blog, Ok well later and take care people.
