A note to myself:
Always carry my camera and act like a tourist. I need pictures!
Since I was up until almost 2 A.M. last night playing a German card game with Kai (Germany), Dirk (Netherland), Herman (Netherland)(spelling?), and Frank (Hong Kong), I'm going to make a post in the morning (it is aound 9:15 right now). We ate a giant watermelon together to start out the night and it was awesome. The game shall be passed on when I go back to the states.
So yesterday. I spent the first half of the day in Mihai's place, checking emails and taking a nap to adjust my internal clock. Then we went to the office of AIESEC Galati. It was HUGE. They have about five rooms for AIESEC and can even hold a LC-scale meeting in there (they have about 60 members). At GT we are grateful just to have an office space but man...they are on a completely different scale!
At the office I met Roxana my traineeship buddy and we walked around the city for a while. We went around and saw a lot of things, like Botanical Garden, university buildings, cathedral, etc., and this is exactly why I need to carry my camera AT ALL TIMES!! Well, I can get those pictures later. I made Roxana nervous by getting on a wrong bus WITHOUT her but we were soon reunited, so I hope she would forgive me. I found out that although she has been speaking Romanian all her life, Roxana cannot make the "r" sound in Romanian words (the rolling "r" sound). So Romanian can be spoken without it! Too bad I can already make the "r" sound.
Then I played some valley ball with other AIESECers for a while, then played some card games with other trainees afterwards as it was mentioned at the beginning. We had a good time and I learned a lot from other trainees. Once again, no pictures. What a shame, considering I'm an Asian traveller. But from now on my camera shall become a part of my body.
