ready or not




Good morning!

Yesterday was our day off...we were not allowed to do anything Summer in the City related. So we went to the zoo! It was free (which is always a bonus) and had a lot of great animals to take pictures of. I kind of got carried away at the sea lion exhibit. We walked in the front gate and were greeted by the male lion who was seriously not happy judging by his roaring. I don't think I had ever heard a lion roar in real life before... most of the time they just sit/lay there...so it's kind of funny that my first time was in downtown Chicago! The Tiger also yelled at us later on in the day inside the Lion house. It echoed and was supper loud too. (Mom & Greg- we also got to watch this Tiger spray through his fence and onto a guy that was taking pictures...PeeWee style! He did it like three or four times around his cage and I was DYING. It was hilarious - I forgot to mention that yesterday!)

It was also my roommates birthday yesterday so we got her a cake and some ice cream and after dinner had a little party. Although, we forgot that we don't have any plates/cups/silverware yet so we had to improvise A LOT. We ended up using a star-shaped serving platter, and measuring spoons and spatulas to eat with...it was pretty funny.

Today is work day. We have A LOT to do to prepare for the students today. Tonight we are all going out to dinner as a staff team for the last time so that should be fun.

Have a great day all...
