Pretty Quiet Here

There's not a lot going on here, as the school semester doesn't actually begin until September 7. Students will probably start coming back around the end of the month, and we are definitely looking forward to it. A few of our former students did not go home this summer to stick around taking graduate school entrance exams or doing internships. Amy's students who are still around are pretty busy, but Matt's friends have a bit lower key schedule. So he's been able to have some great times to catch up and study together with them.

In a week or so, Matt will be taking off on a trip to one of his good friend's hometown. He is excited about this opportunity but not excited about the 36 hour train ride! Before he can take off, he has to get his temporary visa exchanged for a residence permit. We are hoping that can happen efficiently...
