First week in DC

Hi everybody! Greetings from Washington DC!

By now most of you know where I am and what I'm doing.

Since I am working and I signed a contract I can't say specifically but if you go back a few blogs I bet you can figure it out.

I'm going to post a couple of journal entries for ya'll just so you can get a little slice of my life here.

I got checked in today and it has been constant rushing since.

Everyone has been very friendly since I got here.

I have 5 other girls in my room, they are from Maryland, California, Utah, Iowa and Oklahoma.

We all are in lofted bed with scary ladders and little railing.

I fear everytime I go up and down that I will fall and kill myself.

We have two showers which makes everything easier in the morning.

Today was our first day at work. 

The first part was a little boring but the rest was pretty busy.

We learned how to do everything and then my first job was to bring water to one of the Senators.

We ran letters and amendments and roll calls. 

Except we never run.

We walk with a purpose.

We found a letter from the girls who stayed in our room before us and then tonight they 6-way called us. 

Apparently there is a secret book that has been in our room for 30 years.

I'm sure it has amazing and interesting things I would love to read about.

They won't tell us were it is hidden but said they would call back next week.

The people are nice and the food in the cafeteria is decent enough.

Of course there is always that one girl who has a boyfriend back home that she calls every night.

That girl just so happens to be my roommate.

We get a kick out of listening to here.

Everybody is different and so I have my ears, heart, eye and mind open to enjoy every minute of it!
