I'm in Baltimore right now. Yes oh yes. Just finished a jog. It was weird. These 13 year old boys were flirting/making fun of me as I was jogging. They were pretending to jog and saying, "Hey lady, come jog with us." And saying other random stuff. Something was weird about that to me. I was like, "Don't they know how old I am?" They should see me as their mom or something.

I needed a break from SIT so I decided to come down to Baltimore for the weekend to visit Sandy. It's been refreshing to hang out with a close friend. Scott thought it was really bizarre that we pretty much studied the whole time. We spent hours at coffee shops this weekend alternating between deep talks and studying. It was perfect because we both had a lot of work to do but also needed to be refreshed.

I was supposed to leave this morning to drive back to Vermont but I got totally lost on the way to the highway. I know it sounds ridiculous but Baltimore is a really confusing city. So it got way too late in the day to drive that many hours in my super old car (that I borrowed from a friend). So I'm leaving early tomorrow morning. haha

Far out girl, they sound like a bunch of monsters. . . but you know, God has blessed you with some real special skills as a teacher, so fighting little lady!!!

hey jo...sandy and i had a good chuckle when we read your message. we thought it was funny how you talked to all of us on my blog like a message board or something. yeah, it was great to hang with sanders but now i'm having post-friend shock back here at school. but today i'm better cuz i've been immersing myself back into my studies.

i'm especially enjoying my eurasian intercultural com. class. in fact, i had this revelation today while reading that you're what Hall would call very high context in your communication style. hehe you don't know what i'm talking about or maybe you do..you phd genius you.

hey, i had a new spurt of inspiration on our reunion idea. jo should come visit the US for part of her Christmas break...Ro should fly down to LA (sandy, jo and I could split some of her plane fare) and then when sandy's back in LA for her ski trip she could stay a little longer for us all to hang out over New Year's! Oh yeah. That's a good idea!! so what do you think girls?
