My neighborhood is great. I was talking with one of my housemates today and discussing how it is really starting to feel like home. Today two of my housemates and I travelled up to the University of Pennsylvania campus for our day off. It is only 15 blocks from our house, but it feels literally worlds away. So here I am spending my sabbath talking on the phone and getting on the internet. It feels good to relax.
Next week I start community service. I think i will spend mondays with some nuns teaching english to undocumented citizens. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I will work for Catholic Social Serivices with their food bank and senior citizen program. Then on Thursdays I will volunteer at Southwest Community Development Center doing whatever they need. I also might work with adult literacy one night a week. So my schedule is full and things are really starting to get going. As the weeks go by I am sure that I will be busier than I can imagine. I have already walked more than I ever have in my life. Hopefully it will work as a built in workout system.
I miss you all. I hope I have some funny stories to share soon.
Oh there is one funny story. I met a girl named angel as Cornerstone Christian Academy. I had just met her and I asked her to tell me about herself. She immediatley said, "well when I was five my dad took me to Dave and Busters...." and went on and on about the trip to Dave and Busters and never gave me any personal information about herself. Funny.
love love love
