The Southern Cross

"When you see the Southern Cross
      For the first time
            You understand now
                 Why you came this way
                      'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from
                            Is so small
                                 But it's as big as the promise
                                      The promise of a comin' day"

- from 'Southern Cross', by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

Delegate team meeting, March 5th, 2015

Today and for the rest of our meetings until we leave in five weeks, the meeting was a total of 2 hours instead of 1.  This is so we could put together and practice our group presentation.  Alexander got pizza for us.  We took the whole time to recite our play that we are doing.  At the end was the most exciting thing - we got to know who the person we will be matched up with is.  I will be visiting an 11 year old named Sebastien Eitzen.  I have been sending Sebastien emails so we can get to know each other.  He asked me what Ghost in the Graveyard is, because I said I like to play it here.  This weekend I am going to Skype with him.
