Day 2 Competition

Day two of competition today! Location: DLA Piper. Time: 2:15pm. Team: Jason and Kristen.

Jason and I were in charge of the third round today, against Singapore University. They were INTENSE. It was a little unnerving, but I think overall Jason and I held our ground and had our best mediation thus far. It was a little frustrating in the process and the feedback, but otherwise pretty ok. Our tactics and strategies changed, but Jason and I remained civil, diplomatic, and steadfast in our interests. Who knew mediation could be this adversarial!

Second round @ DLA Piper.

It's Tebow-time. Only appropriate in front of room 3.16.

After the mediation, I jetted off to meet up with Duane and DeVere at their hotel. Having family in the same foreign city (especially one like Paris!) is sooo cool. DeVere wasn't feeling well at ALL :( so Duane and I went out according to original plans that DeVere had set out. We had drinks at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, which was really nice :), then headed over back to Champs Elysees area for a set-course dinner and a bottle of wine. Afterwards, we totally walked along the street with all the designer houses. The House of Dior stretched almost a block and was AWESOME. I drooled past Chanel...you know. The goods. Duane and I got a little lost and walked around the entire Arc du Triomphe trying to find my hotel. Such good times :)

Some ridiculously good desserts.
