Hello. I'm not a stalker .-. okay, so basically my class had two field trips. One on Tuesday, and one on Wednesday. They were fun, but I do kind of wish that they were on Thursday, and Friday... so... yeah. The first one (Tuesday) was the Iowa State Capital. No, not the football team... the government building. I didn't look up in the center room in the 2nd floor, and when I did, my crippling fear of heights kicked in. Yes, I do have a fear of heights. Problem? YEAH THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT!!!!! So, later on we "got" to go to the top. Which is like 5 billion stories high! We had the option to go up or not. We were told "If you have Asthma, and your Inhaler is your best friend, it isn't your best choice to go up. If you have heart problems, do not go up. If you have a fear of heights, either suck it up, or go to the top." I applied to the Asthma, and the fear of heights. Yet I still chose to go. Me and @Sam were mortified to be at the top. I looked over the side to see how high up we were. I almost barfed. Three kids decided not to go up. Not mentioning any names here. They know who they are ;D. We saw a model of the U.S.S. Iowa, and apparently, the ship is 3 football fields long. It's interesting how people never say "100 yards" instead of "football field". The field trip on Wednesday, was the Des Moines Art Center. I got to see one of the two "Mark di Suvero" sculptures there. The "T8" I got a magnet with the "T8" on it. Thanks to the person who got it for me! Again, I'm not mentioning any names, but they know who they are. I learned that most of the pieces there, are originals. They have a original PICASSO PAINTING! That's hard to come by. Especially because Picasso is dead... but anyways, that's about all I have to say... is that meaty enough? I sure hope so...
That's the Iowa state capitol building.
