After being in the District for a few days it is fair to say that my semester has begun. Mom and I drove down on Thursday. We played "tourists" for a couple of days. Then I moved in on Saturday. The past couple of days have been busy to say the least. It seems like I have gotten to see a decent amount of DC. I am figuring out the metro quite successfully. I have yet to get on a train in the wrong direction. I am realizing more and more how glad I am that this is not my first time in DC. Having visited here before provides a tiny bit of familiarity, and I am thankful for that.
Today I traveled to Alexandria VA in search of the Media Research Center. I will officially start my internship tomorrow. It looks like I'll have about an hour commute each way. That detail is a bit disconcerting, but overall I am excited. I am certainly nervous as well. I have a very vague idea of what I will be doing and many questions. I'm hoping to get all of my questions answered tomorrow. I expect tomorrow to be an exciting day, but equally exhausting. An internship is a foreign concept to me, especially a DC internship! I know it's going to be tough, but it's what I signed up for. I wish that I could write more about it, but I won't know until tomorrow. So in the mean time enjoy a few of the sights that I have seen, and don't forget to be praying for me!

We're praying for you. I have a good friend working in DC right now at the Dept. of Energy. He and his wife are good kingdom people. We're going to be up that way in a few weeks for a long weekend so we'll try to hook up with you and introduce you if we can. :) Actually, you might remember them. They visited COTK when we were meeting at the KOC building. Then at least there would be more than one family you could call on in an emergency. :)
Hey! I'm so proud of you. Thanks foe the update and keep up the good work. Praying for you.
We are so excited for you! Gary can't believe his little Krista is all grown up! (Personally, I think he has a soft spot for ya!) Keep posting those updates so we can live vicariously through you for a while. Praying for ya!
Awesome blog, Krista! The Washington Monument looked like a shining sword from far away!
