Today, it is going to be 100 degrees outside!

I have become an avid reader of the weekend addition of the Washington Post-turnes out Washington has lots of fascinating social activities. A recent activity I was able to attend: The open air concert of the National Symphony Orchestra in a simply beaituful amphitheatre in the middst of DC. Of course, the repertoire was completely Americanized to include Jaws and the Wizard of Oz. But there were also some magnificent presentations from Debussy. My drive for social activities is in reverse proportion with my availability, so I am simply counting calories when I venture out to meet someone or do something.

In the meantime, I have read an excellent book - The Georgetown Ladies Social Club. I have learned so much from it about Washington DC and US politics that I think such books should be included as course material. I have also completed summer school with an A (not braggin since almost everyone gets As in the US system), and now I am ready to move on.
