Balancing Act

Humidity– It isn’t too bad. I did my undergrad in Austin, TX so it’s very similar. But I did notice that with any serious movement such as pulling two pieces of luggage across George Washinton University or running to get to the subway, I will breakout in a spontaneous sweat. It’s worse when I have a freshly shaved head.

Subway – I don’t know how to explain it without using four letter words. The good part is the folks working in the booths are very nice and will go out of their way to help you navigate through the city.

Streets – I don’t know who designed them and what they had in mind but wow! I don’t know how anyone knows east from west or north from south cuz you’re never going in any of those directions. Everything is North/West or South/East. Have your phone GPS ready.

The National Mall – So Much to see! Just take it slowly one building at a time.

George Washington Campus/ Home – It’s nice. Haven’t seen much of it yet but so far things are convenient. Found the Trader Joe’s 4 blocks away and the 7Eleven is 100 yards away.

Well I’ve taken lots of pictures today but I’m going to wait until after the Memorial weekend to post them, but I hope these will hold you over.
