Life is still somewhat the same here, however. I had a great weekend hiking with my friend Kelly, and then have been holding the fort down while my hosts for the summer have been away. They return tomorrow.
Work is still fun and interesting--last night I got to attend a reception at the British Embassy. It's way classier than the French Embassy, and was filled with guys in skinny suits and skinny ties. My boss has a British accent, but I could barely understand most of the people. It was neat also seeing people I had met at other functions previously. What a life! I also made a presentation today in a nice conference room, and was able to use all my presentation skills from school and teaching skills from China. It was great.
There's not too much else to report, except I can't believe I just finished up week 6 of my internship--just 6 more weeks to go! When I first got here I thought 12 weeks was an eternity, but now I feel like I wouldn't mind working here for a lot longer. Plus, it's nice to have a bit of money--I'm saving the vast majority for tuition, but I'm allowing myself to eat real food, like blueberries and meat.
I'll leave you with a few random pictures. Happy July 4th weekend almost!
