Inauguration 2009: Part 2

Okay, I know we're crazy. This is me and Jackie, a friend of mine from the good ol' days at Quizno's. I loved her and convinced her to come to NP with me (though she's transferring to Columbia next year because they have a better journalism program). We have fun together.
We are pictured here together while waiting for our bus to take us back home from DC. We had been standing at the inauguration all day--honestly, I sat down for about five seconds once to take a really cool picture, and that was it from the time I got off the bus to the time I got back on. Jackie and I could not WAIT to get back on that bus. We had had fun in DC, but we were so ready to get back to Chicago...
Wait a minute.
You don't know about DC yet.
MORE TO COME.

Inauguration 2009 Part I: On the road

After an eventful day of driving to Hyde Park, embarrassing myself by being the only non-Orthodox to go up for a blessing during the Liturgy, rushing back home after a fabulous lunch, and frantically finishing my homework, I am now nearly ready to rush off to DC. I'll be leaving at exactly 6pm. There will definitely be a chroniclization of my adventures (with my new camera!) coming very soon...
