Meeting of the Minds as Group Study Exchange (GSE) to Taiwan counts down to our departure in 2 Months to the date.
We had another great weekend with our busy group. With each one of us as budding young professionals it was hard to tie down a date for our second meeting. Unfortunately for us, however fortunate for Laura on her quest for inner peace was away on a Yoga training in Costa Rica. Sadly missed we hope she had a great trip.
This trip is showing great promise already walking into the McIntosh Cottage it feels like meeting up with old friends for a great adventure instead of sitting down for the third time with people who would normally be strangers. Already you can see the great things that will come from this GSE trip.
The excitement and stories around the dinner table, have us all in stitches as our newly announces Reginald Commander Mike Kinsey prepares us for the TO DO LIST over the next 8 weeks. Which is sure to fly by as time does when you need more of it.
We're all sitting on the edge of our seats as we tackle our first order of business , blue blazer's and Khaki pants become the main stay of our packing list. None of us really knowing what to bring on a month long trip, other then the patent uniform and more underwear then we've ever owned.
Our presentation and talk of translating Mandarin effectively has a dime outlook as we have all realized the difficulties of harnessing this language. "How hard could it be" has sprung a new meaning to most in the group.
