Hollywood

Hey everybody, long time since the last post I know. I'm going to go ahead and use the excuse I've been too busy. Last you heard from me I was in good old Kenya. Since then I have proceeded to go back home to Indiana after a day of visiting friends in England; Spent a few weeks home doing important things like napping and eating American junk food; took a road trip across the country in a U-Haul; and now am in my newest home...HOLLYWOOD. I feel like its going to be a great year(of course I feel that way about every year though.) I am living in a house with five other similar minded young adult volunteers. Our house is located next to Paramount Studios, just a few minute walk from Hollywood and Vine. It is all quite exciting but also quite whelming. I'm not overwhelmed yet, but I think parts of my brain are. We have gone to the beach once; walked to Grauman's Chinese theater on the walk of fame; prepared meals for a massive operation that gives 1600 meals to people with terminal illnesses every day; and stumbled into a free big name band concert in a music store where we just wanted to buy a CD. Most of us will be working in some part or another with the organization PATH. Check them out at www.epath.org. I'll let you know more of what I'm doing when I figure it out myself. Until then, thanks for reading, and have a "Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night"
