Another Nice Day in Olympia

Hey, yesterday was sooo nice! It was very sunny and the temp hit the 80's! I spent a lot of yesterday doing work and reading. I went to a community connections meeting, but we didnt do to much. Later i went for a run up on evergreen park way and ended up getting lost in the city. I had to backtrack to find my way back. I did my daily ritual of basking in the sauna and then got dinner. I spent the rest of the night hanging with friends and writing papers.
Today was the first offical day of class and was also another nice day!!! Living in the sacred garden started at 930 (could be worse). Most of the morning was spent doing intoductions and discussing rules and such. We also talked about the field trip in oct. from the 15 to 17. We are going to Portland and will be visiting meusems and gardens. We will be staying in a hostel which should be fun. Next we had a lunch break during which i grabbed a Tai wrap with veggies "swimming in peanut sauce". Remy would have loved it. Class began an hour later and we talked about types of culture, sacredness, and types art. It seems very interesting, and both teachers Hirsh( heavy russian accent) and Marja (very into nature) are nice and interesting. Later i went to the sauna then dinner. We are going to be making some cool things in class such as masks, pottery, and nature journals.
