Legal vandalism!!!

Quote of the day: Professor Fitzgibbon: "Okay class, what we'll be doing at the internship today is finishing coloring in those drawings that we made earlier."
Brady: "Best Internship Ever!!"

Today was a GREAT DAY IN ALL ASPECTS OF THOSE TWO WORDS("Great Day"!! )!! Class at ABA was interesting. We learned today about the Sertanejos, who live in the deserts of northeastern Brazil. For them, there is nothing that they can take for granted. In the Sertao, the region where they live, droughts are frequent, the environment is unfriendly, and it is a day-to-day struggle to stay alive. I think about this and then compare it to my bloated, spoiled self where my only struggle is to stay awake on the bus ride home and digest food when I eat too much... ya it's a hard life.

Cristina took this picture. I won't like I wish that she had taken it just a little farther away so that you couldn't
see the drawn-in pencil marks to help guide some of us " slightly less-talented, significantly less-coordinated,
motor-skill lacking" type. Just for the record, THIS TIME while in action, I didn't spray my own hands/shirt/face
....ON ACCIDENT.

I now have a tremendous respect for the Sertanejos, who, despite poor circumstances and little external help, keep going no matter how hard it is. At this time in history, the Brazilian Government viewed these mulattoes as an inferior rest and applied that theory that if it didn't support these people, the race would end up dying off. Unfortunately for these short-sighted bigots, this didn't happen. The Sertanejos have persisted and made a name for themselves in the history of Brazil, which is celebrated in numerous ways, such as music. These people, in my opinion, are unsung heroes who helped pave the way for the success Brazil is experiencing today, just as the early settlers did in North America. Hopefully one day they'll receive a little more credit.

YES, I KNOW THAT MY HANDS NO LONGER HAVE PAINT ON THEM, BUT IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD
IDEA AT THE TIME, OK? LOOK! TAWNYA IS DOING IT TOO! (Sticks tongue out in infantile manner)

After this we went to the CCJ and met with Carbonel!!! It turned out that we got to "vandalise" the interior of the classroom by putting up "graffiti" as they call it in Brazil. It truly was a great experience! This was a great experience involving teamwork, leadership, and vision- which was greatly enhanced by large amounts of aerosol inhalation... Please take note of the distant, hazy look in most of our eyes.... Existentialism... no I don't know if that is the correct term.

Hypothetical Question: In a zombie apocalypse, would you be able to drink the water made from an air conditioner?(You know how they "drip" right?) If the answer is yes, then all you need is an infinite power supply!...and an air conditioner. Please keep this in mind when buying your next house.
