This is what Ive summoned from the last couple of days: to get anything done you have to have social connections. You want to join a swim team? You ask around until people make phone calls for you, hopefully gets a hold of someone, and then you're in. If no one picks up the call is made, then whoever is helping you tells me to comeback tommorrow. In this way, its impossible to really get anything done and you spend time doing the same thing everyday without actually getting anything done. It sounds kinda funny on email, and im sure it will be once i could figure out a swim team and pool, or if I have my internet...
anyways, other than that complaint, everyone is really nice...I think everyone has the intentions of helping out, and I do love exploring the city. I think tomorrow Im going to do a walking tour that was in my guide book, and I might make kate (one of the past interns) travel with me this weekend (becuase I have no responsibilities...)
Also, I think it's important to remember that the kids havent even come yet, and im guessing that will be my favorite part of the job! Anyways, there is nothing I can do right now except relax and not worry about it. But Im kinda (really) an uptight American.
Oh and I keep seeing lots of cats and want to pet them, but i will try not to get fleas Amanda
love
