that's right we have an airship

Somehow I managed to completely sleep through my alarm this morning. I usually get up by 8 at the latest and today I woke up at 9:23. I don't know how, but I changed my clothes, brushed my hair, packed my bag, gave Shiv's his antibiotic and ran to the bus by 9:30. I got the 9 and then, because we were heading to the warehouse today, had to wait for the 22. It's about a twenty minute walk so I figured the bus would be faster. Well the bus took about 15 minutes to come and then only took me two blocks - for some weird reason it was stopping its route early. So I started to walk and just as I left another 22 that was going all the way drove by. But I wasn't at a stop anymore so I couldn't catch it. Anyway, I got there about half an hour late and they were JUST starting - so it was cool.

Anyway at the warehouse we worked on sewing on letters onto a huge banner that is going to be sewn to the side of a Greenpeace airship for our new sustainable seafood campaign really soon. So keep your eyes peeled - more details to come.

We stayed there until 2 and then headed back to the main office for another two hours of Student Lead Activist recruitment calls. The last girl I talked to is an international student at Michigan State University. She moved here from India to go to school so we talked about the fact that I'm dating someone from there, and it was pretty cool. Definitely neat to connect with these people about random things - not that Karn is random in any way. Heart. Moving on. Uh, yeah she was so stoked and wants to intern with Greenpeace in a year when she is done university - yay! Super fast bus trip home today. I think it took 2o minutes on two buses - it was godly and amazing.

Also, the other day Jules and I definitely saw a guy in a total pimp suit - bright purple suit, selling watches out of his coat pocket. Ye we did!
