The Hotel

The Minnesota YAF Trip Diaries, Part 2

Once we got to the hotel, more trouble reared its ugly head, which I didn't think was going to happen. Like me, everyone thought that all of the hotel room arrangements had been made properly to ensure that everyone got a bed for the night. As originally planned, I was supposed to share a room with two other girls from UIS. After everyone arrived at the hotel, checked in, and was given their room assignment- I was sure that there wouldn't be any trouble.
I was wrong!
Somehow, I had been placed in a room with four other girls. Now, that's too many in one room- considering that all of us would need the bathroom, and our schedule for the following day, probably wouldn't have let us all have our time in the bathroom without making us late for the day's activities.
Eventually, the situation got worked out, and everyone finished getting ready for the opening reception. While my roommates were getting ready to go to the reception, I learned that I somehow didn't get in the registration records. How could that have happened? I had never before had anything like that happen before, but- like the hotel room situation, this also worked out after all.
