Busy!

These last few weeks have been crazy busy -- I'm still at my internship (which I love) and now I've also taken on teaching one class at the college where we live. I have a whole new level of respect for my professors -- I had no idea how long it takes to prepare every lecture. My class meets 5 times per week, 1 hour each session. Add that to my internship, and I feel like I'm going from 7am until bedtime. Happily, I love almost every minute of it. My students are wonderful, and I'm becoming good friends with a couple of my internship coworkers.

This weekend my internship officemate has invited us to his family's yearly puja (ceremony with monks, chanting and instruments) that confers blessings on his family. I'm really excited for the whole experience. My officemate is excited to have us drink some locally-made rice alcohol. So we'll see how that goes.
