Pictures? Nooooo.....

Like I said earlier today, I'm in Manila. There's honestly not too much to write about because we've been in training, training, training. Oh yeah, and dipping our feet in the pool, checking out the waterfall, hanging out, giving urine samples, filling out forms, eating fresh fruit, eating fish with scales, etc. etc. etc. But really, we got here last night, ate dinner, settled in, put on a movie, and were sleeping within 20 minutes.

The battle with jetlag has not been too bad honestly, except that this afternoon I got really tired. A nap was needed, and I'm trying to hold off at least until tonight. This morning, I awoke at 4 AM unknowingly and was wondering why it was so darn dark still, thinking that it was about 7 AM. No, no. So I've been a bit off, but it's nothing like flying west to east, which is a good thing.

There's not much to say quite yet, really. So, I'm off. Wednesday we find out where out training sites will be and where we'll be for the next three months, and then Thursday we'll head out to the sites, via aeroplano or bus.
