Lifescouts: Zoo Badge

Long time no see! Which of course is my fault but schoolwork has been picking up and I'm just trying to finish out my sophomore year strong. I cannot believe that I'm almost a junior which for me brings a new RA job, the start of my MCAT studying and research into medical schools. Everything ahead of me seems so daunting, but that's life and I just have to take it one step at a time. Or at least that's what I try to tell myself.

In keeping with my current trend on blog lately, I have another Lifescouts badge to share. I know I'm really behind on these, but cut me some slack! Since Alex has started doing theme months, I want to get caught up on animal month so I can see how big of a nerd I actually am. :)

I feel like the zoo badge is one of the least exciting because I'm sure that a majority of kids have gone to the zoo on a field trip during elementary school. I actually can't even tell you how many times I've been to a zoo. There's the local one in my town that celebrated the birth of a baby giraffe last year to a zoo in China where I got to see a panda. Really the only reason my parents were willing to go to the zoo was because I wouldn't stop talking about wanting to see a panda, and man did I have fun. It was a dreadful rainy day and the animals weren't too happy but my wish came true!

Sorry I don't have a more interesting story to tell about this badge, but at least it's short and sweet!
