Alright, I admit, Bethany inspired me - may her Washington experience prosper. I realized today that I forgot my journal at home, and that the devotional journal I brought with me is completely full. So blogging, here I come.
I arrived in Michigan on Sunday. It was my first time flying alone, and I was late awakening due to my sister's wedding and then packing until the wee hours. I barely had time to wash the hairspray out of my hair before I had to be at the airport, but everything went well. I stayed on the same plane from Syracuse to Cleveland (sp?) and then from Cleveland to Grand Rapids, but I had to get off in between (and find out where my plane had rolled to; the gate for boarding in Cleveland wasn't on my pass, and neither was the stop in Cleveland). Oh, I am spelling Cleveland right. Just looked it up. ANYWAY, I actually met the pilot of my plane in the Cleveland airport. He was getting coffee, and he was really nice. Mark Sherwin was his name, but we actually didn't exchange apellations while we were waiting in line, though we did exchange other niceties. I found out his name from the stewardess' announcement.
Jah, so I arrived in Michigan and had dinner and played frisbee. Was a little disappointed that most of the researchers aren't very athletic, but hey, that's life. Had some fun doing research, hanging out, playing volleyball... My fellow researcher is great. Her name is Erica Budge, and she's from around here. It's kinda nice being on my own, but I miss lots of people and places back home. Can't wait until things around here start feeling a little more familiar.
