Lilly, the program director from Vanderbilt, is in DC this week visiting all of the organizations that VIEW interns are working at (20 different ones apprx.). She came to visit today at met with Evlyn to discuss me (gulp) and what they look for in an intern for the future. I'm meeting with Lilly tomorrow to discuss my program experience. That'll be a nice opportunity to have.
Monday night- Chop't, Urban Outfitters, and FroZenyo with the roommates were all wonderful. Last night I got dinner with my friend Andrew, who is a counselor at an International Policy camp at AU. It was a bunch of Vandy people and we had a great time. We ate at Good Stuff Eatery, which is a very popular restaurant run by Spike (Former Top Chef contestant!) that is frequented by Hill Staffers.
Tonight is our VIEW send-off dinner, that is actually located next door to Good Stuff. Spike, the head chef/owner, opened up a new restaurant next door- just this Monday! It's receiving a lot of hype and is called We The Pizza. (His other place is burgers/fries/shakes) I can't wait to try it!
Today has been all over the place. I received some really sad news about a friend from school and now have another person to keep in my prayers. I also am in contact with a man who hosts a radio show on public radio in Nashville that discusses sports once a week- he's looking for a co-host and I might be able to get the job! I'm also applying for an internship with Senator Bob Corker in Nashville- but that not might be until the Spring. I already have my job at the Commons Center, have been talking with a friend about getting a PR job with Vandy instead, and now am exploring even more options. Wow, I am exhausted!
Louisville in 4 days!
