good things!

so, it's only about 2pm, but it's been a great day.
1--i was studying at starbucks this morning and i swear to you, the barristas there, and i mean specifically at the one by my house, are the nicest people i've met in santiago. they are all really friendly. when i was getting ready to leave, about 6 of them were sitting down to do a taste test/lesson time with one of the managers. so, they invited me to join them! they were studying their little booklets and sniffing the coffee and tasting little cakes with it and things. it was pretty delightful.
2--i found out that i my application for the provost fellowship at loyola was accepted! it basically means i will be working with my favorite social work professor about 10 hours/week on a mentoring project on chicago's southside with kids who've been involved in the justice system. i'll be on the team that organizes and implements the program.
i'm very excited!

okay, chao!
