Transition Week

Its Friday of Transition Week.
Which of course means there are plenty of people to play nerd games with. Last night we played "Battle of the Sexes" and "Catchphrase." The night before we played Munchkin, then a ridiculously large game of "I'm thinking of a..."

The wireless internet in Walsh Hall is not working. I'm camped out in the cafeteria so I can download some audiobooks.

This week we've done our debriefing and briefing, and have started talking about our future life living in the woods. It appears that there are four bedrooms, not two (yay!) And that there is a weight room in the basement. Internet accessibility seems sketchy at best, so blog posts may be sporadic. However I did manage to convince the team that we should keep doing the team blog, because it was beneficial to our Project Portfolio during the last round. Also Ayla and I (mostly Ayla) created a chore chart. And I definitely encourage everyone to gamble using their chores as currency. (Nerd reference alert).

Next week we begin our fire management training. We have a week of classes with the forest services, before heading up to Lake George where we will continue with on-the-job training.

Liz has been spending the second half of this week with her new team. Alas we have lost her as our ISP coordinator. I know now how we will survive without her. However Benn has set up an ISP for us for tomorrow. We will be going to the Denver Children's Home and painting. Liz will be accompanying us (yay!)

Tomorrow most teams deploy for their SPIKE projects. Which means the dorm is going to be crowded tonight as no one can go out and drink before SPIKE travel. And then tomorrow the dorms will be deserted.
