where are we again?
It's not everyday you run into a collection of skulls, but that's Meteora for you! Greece sure was an adventure!! Maybe I just need to look harder for these sorts of fun filled hole in the wall surprises.
skopelos
I dearly love my walks that I go on everyday, but sometimes Ican't help forget about places like this one- Skopelos and what it would be like to get to live here for a year- or for a lifetime!
my own garden
Sometimes, when school and life seems to be flying by, I like to remember those 4 wonderful months where I got to be away from the normal everyday routines. it may not look perfect here but when spring came the garden was beautiful and there were flowers everywhere, and my land lady always poking her head through my window (i was on the first floor), and 3 days a week, there were dance classes held on the other side of the garden and they always opened the windows and I could hear the music and watch the dancers! It was my own bit of heaven. Once outside the gates, you were back in Aix en Provence, and in the bustle of the downtown center. Oh, I can't wait to go back, and next time I have to take someone so they can experience it with me!!!

great day!
So today I heard from one of my best friends- Christy Crampton, who called to let me know she got engaged! And I couldn't be happier for her and Cory. They are getting married April 14th, 2007. Congratulations!
Also, I got to talk with Amelia today and I could hear Bekir trying to talk. He kept saying his letters and "up" or "down"! I think they really had a great time seeing her parents and sister in Bosnia and Croatia.
Very soon I should be finding out my results from the Foreign Service Written Exam! We shall see how it went:)

American presidency
polsc. 605- is now done. I took the exam and we will see, but at least I know I wrote what I consider 7 excellent pages on the issues of how the founders wanted the President elected and how the presidency has changed since the time of George Washington. No more ideas about amendments, informal powers or literal/active presidents need stay in my head!

The Library
Alright- so we don't exactly sell books here which would be great, but we do help people enjoy themselves! And I can only think of one job I enjoyed as much- which of course(bien sur) was at Whitmoor Country Club! But I am learning a lot about liquers, wines, beer, and how bizarre and fun many of my co-workers are!! The Library sure has made this summer much improved:)

the girls
Sherri, Catherine, I on the way back to Manhattan. Laying outside of Harrah's near the pool and drinking Budlight sure makes me sleepy!!
good looking kids, aye?!
Jared and I across from Catherine! After this photo a security man came over and informed us that we weren't allowed to have cameras in the facility- and might I had he was rather grouchy. One should at least try to enjoy their career! Oh well- we just walked around and watched Brazil play Australia in the Soccer World Cup!
Good news- Saturday- USA tied Italy. So if we do really well against Ghana, we have a chance of continuing on to the next round! We'll see:)

soccer field
I hope everyone realizes the importance of June 9th. The beginning of the 2006 Soccer World Cup in Germany. The first game was Germany vs. Costa Rica. Germany scored in the 5th minute!
In four years the cup will be in South Africa, and I plan on going to it!!!

Skopelos
so I was searching for photos online of Skopelos Island, in north-eastern greece, and i came upon this photo. I think the hike up that hill would be worth the view. Although, the atmosphere would be intense on a stormy evening.
