First day

I had my first day at City Year on Friday, even though our official start date isn't until Tuesday. We did all the typical get-to-know you stuff, filled out paperwork (otherwise known as signed our lives away to City Year and AmeriCorps for the next ten months), and tried on our uniforms. Even though the uniform is bright red, has elastic in the waistband, and is not exactly flattering... It was kind of exciting. My roommates are great, the house looks great (from outside, anyway), and the staff and corps seems nice. We're moving into the house tomorrow, and maybe we'll even have electricity...
