Hi All,
I have decided to continue my blogging experience from DC where I am now living.
After graduation, I moved in with my friend from my internship last summer, Jacqueline into a wonderful rowhouse in Columbia Heights, DC. It is such a fun area to live in with bars, shopping, and soccer fields all around!
we became really good friends with the neighbors and we have become sort of a big family...we do family dinner each week and I love the camaraderie we have going. were actually putting together a dodgeball team so i'm excited for that!
other than that, i'm going to continue taking arabic in the fall, and i was asked to teach a french class! talk about moving up in the world!
i do have to say...i'm sincerely lucky to have a job in this economy...i know lots of people who either dont have a job or have a job doing something completely unrelated to what they want to do. i am lucky on both counts.
in other news, i have been thinking about my future, and i think this winter i'm going to start applying to graduate school, it cant hurt! i'm already bored without school and it is only august! i need the intellectual stimulation or i feel like my brain is going to turn to jelly :/
i really miss my family sometimes and can't imagine living abroad again...sometimes i feel like i live WAY too far away and im still in the usa! it would be so hard if went to school in england or france but it would probably be worth it in the end...
thats all the profound things i have to say for now...I'll try to update as often as possible now that i sit at a desk 8 hours a day

In Athens for the night
Hey!
So we took the highspeed ferry from Santorini at 5 tonight back to Athens. It was so sad leaving, but I'm really excited for the next leg of our trip because WE ARE GOING TO ROME tomorrow!!! And it just so happens that our visit coincides with the beatification of Pope John Paul II, so it will be the perfect day to see the vatican!
I'm so excited to eat some pizza, pasta, and gelato! We have to make the most of it though, cause we are only in Rome for 6 hours. Our train back to Geneva is at 4, so we gotta make those hours count!
Ill update from the homeland
Ciao

The red beach!
I'm not sure why, but the cliffs, rocks, and sand of this beach are red...definitely the first time I've seen sand this color
