Walk to the White House

The cold temperatures continued throughout the day but the highlight of the day was when all the UCLA students braved the weather to take a group picture in front of the White House.  Also we recorded an eight-clap that we hope makes it into the next version of the 8-clap heard around the world.  I haven't seen the White House since my last time in DC about 3 years ago so it was a welcome sight!  The walk was less than 15 minutes which helped me to get more oriented with the city.

I have already experienced my first bout of procrastination as we were assigned some readings that needed to be completed tomorrow.  Instead of doing those right away I spent time looking up some recipes I want to try!  I am hoping that this will be a great opportunity to hone my cooking skills.

There are constantly new people to meet and hearing about everyone's diverse interests and internships has been pretty exciting.  I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know many more!

  1. in the background, it looks like the White House security is watching UCLA carefully. The group does not look suspicious to me!
