“We’ll meet again, Don’t know where,don’t know when, But I know we’ll meet again, some sunny day.” - Vera Lynn

IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY!
Also ha, Boris
Johnson showed up


Unfortunately - my boss didn't come in so my Friday wasn't the greatest in terms of doing anything substantive or really, anything at all.

So I just sat around and just did some reading about SEA...I was trying to learn more for myself.

At lunch, I headed out to coffee and talked to another girl from Canada and just sat around and talked to her. It was a good break - and a good way to learn from someone else and their experiences.

Afterwards, I met up with another friend and we headed over to a small area where there was a bunch of seating by his work and we sat and talked for a while.

That's the president of the General
Assembly!
I got to see a lot of people today at lunch. But also I realized that the sun not only kind of sucks the energy out of me but it actually gave me a huge headache afterwards - maybe I was just dehydrated?

The weather's too hot outside man.

I sat around work til about 5:30 reading more about SEA and reading some academic papers, but most people in the office had left since our big head honcho boss told us that we could all leave for 3pm because there just wasn't work to do. It was nice.

So I headed downstairs to the main area, outside on the patio beside the UN building where we were going to a farewell party for a UN Security Guard who had been working at the UN since he was 18. EIGHTEEN.

That's insane. He was dedicated to his job.

I could tell that everyone loved him.

We had a bunch of food, drinks and great music to both dance to and enjoy! I danced and had fun with
Farewell, farewell
some friends and made some new security officer friends (this is how you do it right?). One of them even ended up giving me a really awesome security pin!

Afterwards, we headed out to my friend's place in Brooklyn where she was having her farewell party on the rooftop, and then afterwards, we headed out to a bar where I didn't end up getting home until 4am.

All in all, a bumping evening to make up for a boring morning/afternoon.
