First of all yesterday we had to go to a speaker in the morning at TWC about civic engagement. She was definitely on something like happy pills or something. It was probably in the end a good meeting for us to have because we have to get involved in a civic engagement while we are out here and we have to tie what we do to a public policy. I still don’t know what I am going to do but I have to be able to write 3 pages on it and tie it into my goals I wrote out while I was here. I am still working on my goals but it is coming along.
After that we had 2 hours to burn before our next event so a group of six of us went and ate at Johnny Rockets in Union Station. And then we just walked around and looked in the expensive stores. I actually bought a book at B. Daltons though should be a funny one. It is like the Tucker Max book that I am reading which is hilarious and I am fling through the book. SO I can’t wait until I start the next one!!
Then around 2 we had to be at the National Archives to see the Dec. Of Independence. It was cool to see them again because the last time I was there I was 12 so I didn’t really remember what all was there and what it looked like. So that was interesting. We didn’t stay too long though because it was 95 degrees yesterday and we were dressed up and uncomfortable. So we came back and we all took a nap.
Then it was time for the night life. We were going to go to Club Platinum but when we got there it was backed up at least a block back and 6 people wide or so. It was crazy so we decided to go to Adams Morgan’s bar and that is a 7 block walk one way. So the way there wasn’t bad IN HEELS…but then when we came back at 2:30 it was bad because my feet hurt so bad by this time I thought I was going to die and we still had a mile to walk and 30 min metro ride.
By the time the apartment was in view my feet were actually bleeding at the balls of my feet because I was walking on the ground with no shoes because I couldn’t decide which hurt worse so I switched on and off. Pry not the best idea but I made it back and soaked my feet in the bath tub for a good 20 mins while I was talking to Trent on the phone. Then it was time for bed and I actually thought about writing in my journal but thought it would be better not too. Well I will try to write to night. WE are going to a jazz festival around 5 and then we are going to try to get into club platinum tonight. We are on the guest list tonight so we should be able to get in. Girls get in free before 11 so we will see! TTYL!
