well, faithful readers (again...mom), i have been quite busy, which would explain why i haven't really updated. i can try though. here are the highlights of the last few weeks:
- i went home for the first time since easter for sarah's graduation party. amanda came with me and we had a lot of fun.
- i've been to quizzo a lot and it's possibly my favorite thing in the city, next to the people and rittenhouse square.
- day one has been crazy! i've had 3 student groups, 2 family groups, and i've been "the mouse" (the host who scurries all over campus to make things run smoothly). i had 1 good group, 1 awful group, and 1 fantastic group. i've met some great kids and i've gotten really close with the summer staff, which is always good.
- last night, we went out for davey's 21st birthday. we went to dolce for dinner, where i managed to spend only $20 total (including tax and tip and whatnot). we went to sassafrass on 2nd street for a while, but then gwen and i left with mikey to go to tavern, which is a gay piano bar in the gay-berhood (which very openly exists in philly. the street signs are marked quite clearly). i didn't think i would sing, but the pianist asked if i sang 'wicked' and i answered 'yes' and he played popular. mike, gwen, and i have fans. :) i had such a good time.
that's really it. i'm working a lot this weekend and i have a lot coming up socially. summers in philly are really what they're cracked up to be.
m.c.
