Staging

I arrived in DC last night for staging.  We leave tomorrow morning for the DR.  There are a surprising 52 people in our training class.  We had orientation all day, and I'm officially a Peace Corps Trainee (PCT).  I had Thai for dinner, and tried to get a cupcake from Georgetown Cupcakes, but they were sadly closed.

My last days in the States have been great; western themed going-away party was fun, I met Mark in Vegas, and ate pizza and burgers for the last time.

It snowed 6'' in Kingman, and DC is pretty cold.  So, I can't wait for the warmth.

I am excited to speak Spanish, but less excited about not having a phone.  It is such a luxury to pick up your cell and call whoever.
