January 13th-
The day started off slowly because getting out of bed was the last thing I wanted to do. After convincing myself to get up for a couple minutes, I finally rose to start the day off with my routine. I washed my face and tried to make myself look a little more like a human being (I am not a morning person). My dilemma for the morning was to either wear pants or a dress. I know this might sound trivial but at the time I really just could not decide. I went through the pros and cons in my head and finally decided to wear a dress. I slipped on my Uggs, made sure my bag was packed with my pumps, and headed on my way. Wallace, Isabel, and I made our way to the Subway with our usual route. I have to say that the Metro is not my favorite thing about this trip. I love being able to get in my car at anytime I please and be by myself as I listen to my favorite music. The dark, underground feeling the metro gives you is not exactly pleasant, but I am glad I am getting a feel for it now. If I took a job in a big city later in life I would know how the metro worked and what I was doing. I entered in the big building where I have finally mastered the way to work. The underground tunnels to the different buildings, many entrances, and similar looking halls do not help when I am lost. Today at work, I got to be apart of something exciting. The other intern and I went to the Capitol so that we could see Congressman Tanner speak about a bill he is trying to push through. Although we did not get to hear him for very long, we stayed a little longer to hear them talk about the Heisman trophy winner, Mark Ingram. After work, I went back to the hotel and took a shower, so I could get ready for diner. A few of us went to a little sushi place in Georgetown called Chopsticks. The meal was delicious and everyone had been craving sushi because we had not had it since being in Nashville. When I came back there were a lot of people in our room getting internet and watching Real World D.C. I talked on the phone a little bit and went to bed so that I could be awake for the big city tomorrow!
