Uniforms--no update here...but I am hopeful it won't be too bad.
Presentations--still wondering if I have to give my presentation in German!
Gifts--thinking about this...maybe Ghirardelli chocolate? cable car pins? prints/photos of a local landmark?
Bios--done! I am compiling the entire teams bios and photos to be sent off to the German host team.
Sponsorship--I spoke to Maureen and Jay :( We are all a bit bummed...I think I will have to buy Jay a nice bottle of Single Malt Scotch to win back his love!! I honestly think it was the best professional move to be closer to home/work and be sponsored by the Rotary Club of Terra Linda. The meeting times and locations are easier and more reasonable to attend during the work day. I am still a little bummed about not being sponsored by Jay's group, but hopefully I can visit that club a couple of times instead...
Applications signed--done!
Language Lessons--done! I chose to learn German by using a Rosetta Stone online subscription. So far, I love-love-love it!! It's a pretty good program and I highly, highly recommend it. It has sections on reading, writing, listening and speaking. It's considered immersion style which is the best way to learn a language--quickly! And it's available at my fingertips whenever I can access a computer! So easy!
Speaking of German lessons...gotta run off to put in a hour of time studying!
