Austin, Day 3


Training, day 2, went fairly well. We had a great talk from a local filmmaker named Keith Maitland (http://vimeo.com/user2198454) who had a lot of great things to say about storytelling, international travel, and blind high schoolers :)

The whole day was a bit of craziness because the National Team, us, was finally beginning to realize that, well, we leave TOMORROW. Crazy, I tell you. We're all hanging out in the co-op packing but we still can't really make out what exactly to do with ourselves. I know I should be getting to bed soon, but I'm completely overwhelmed by everything I feel like I have to do before tomorrow. There was a lot of stress earlier today, but I'm packed and I'm feeling a lot better but that doesn't quite help the to-do list, which means this post has to be short.

One cool link Andrea, our photographer, found last week about the West Bank (as a final prep before we go): http://www.cbc.ca/news/interactives/shatila/. Get ready. The next one of these posts will be from the West Bank.
