End of Management!

This week I finished my management rotation! It means that I am done with 1/3 of my internship. I can't believe how fast this is going by. It's been a very good rotation and I have learned so much! The people I worked with helped me out so much. So, I decided that it would be nice to do something for them. About a week and a half ago I asked Jamie to send me some chocolate covered cinnamon bears with some extra bags from the bookstore. When I got them I divided them up among the 6 managers I have been working with and passed them out at the weekly manager's meeting. Everyone loved them! The rest of the day that was all people wanted to talk about. After lunch that day I was walking down the hallway when a lady I didn't know came up to me and said, "I love your favorite candy! It is so delicious! It's my new favorite candy too!!" It was very surprising because I don't even know how she knew who I was. Also, later in the week I had some people come up and ask me if there is anyway they can order them online! 
Thanks for helping me out with that Jaim!!

Also this week has been a very pesky week for Percy. First, on Wednesday I woke up to find my cell phone pretty chewed up. The screen is now cracked and unreadable, and the keypad is pretty damaged. (The good news though is that I have a new phone coming Monday!!). The next pesky thing was on Thursday. Every Thursday night the missionaries come over to teach my friend Weijuan. So there we were in the middle of a discussion, with the two elders, Matt, Weijuan, Angela and I when Percy comes running out of my room with a pair of my underwear in his mouth. After getting everyone's attention he drops it right in the middle of everyone and runs off again. It was too embarrassing!!!

Funny Things

I have not posted in a little while because I haven't been up to anything other then the internship and school. I am really enjoying it but it is sure keeping me busy. But, I thought it would be fun to post about the funny things people have said to me lately.

So, I cut 7 inches off of my hair last week! When I got home my 11 year old neighbor tells me that I now look like I am 34!! Not quite what I wanted.

The other day I ran into one of the people I was in orientation with when I started at Saint Anthony and he says to me, "You look nice, I'm glad to see that they are letting you wear normal clothes now."-- I've never had a uniform or anything...

Well, I feel like more comical things have happened recently but I can't remember them right now...
And here is a pic of the haircut...
