UP UP WITH PEOPLE!!!! YOU MEET THEM WHEREVER YOU GO!!

I'll start by apologizing for the delay in postings. I have been tremendously busy. On Saturday we had an intense day of blocking and rehersal. I also had some more Advance Team training. plus modules for some vocals. Then Sunday about 30 of us UWP people went to Waterworld for a day of fun in the sun! It was a blast and I only got a little sunburned -nothing too bad. It was a great chance to see the fun side of the cast, since normally we are busting our butts dancing or singing, or sitting listening to the next awesome speaker they have planned. On Monday we had Mark Gerzon come and speak to us. He was soo inpirational and I learned so much. Its hard to really put it in to words, so much of it was an internal change of mind or heart. We have a regional learning day tomorrow, which basically means we learn hands on about the community we are in - so we are doing a scavenger hunt all around Boulder, CO and then visiting the Celestial Seasonings Tea Factory. It should be fun.

I am so amazed at how I have grown. I've had ups and downs in the last couple of weeks, and I have struggled with having so much thrown at me at once, but i have also thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I have been challenged by those around me and completely put in my place, and I am grateful. I am surround by people who care- about me, about the world, about others, and about making a difference. I can't wait to see what happens in the following months. It can only get better!!!!
