This morning we had to give oral book reports for Doug. I was happy to have completed my book on time, as I had several issues with getting my hands on a copy of my assigned book. After some troubles with Amazon, I finally had a colleague of mine request the book from the Library of Congress for me. Because I didn't get the book until Tuesday afternoon, I had to get through it pretty quickly. However, my attempts to read it at work on Wednesday and Thursday were quite unsuccessful. As soon as anyone sees that I just might not be doing real work, they find a *fun job* for me to do. It's nice to have things to stay busy with, just not when I have homework that I'm a tad behind on!
Everything worked out very well. So, no worries. After class this morning, we all went to speak with a vice president of APCO Worldwide about lobbying. It was an extremely well-spent hour. He was very knowledgeable and personable. I think everyone was able to take something good away from the discussion. I especially appreciated his insight on how to impress possible employers in an interview.
Then a few of the girls tried getting in to the Newseum for free (because it was opening day), but they were at maximum capacity for the day. So, we stood in line and got free tickets for Saturday. The $20 we saved by standing in line will be put to good use soon, I'm sure!
