I have some good news and some potentially good news.

First the really good news: I got the shower pin to stay out! Yeah I know, I can’t believe it either. I swear I tried to rotate the pin once pulled but no luck. Apparently I wasn’t twisting hard enough. A co-trainee and I were talking about the shower situation I have, and he told me what I had to do to get the pin to stay out. Once I tried what I was told it worked. I was so excited you have no idea. I never thought I would be so excited to take a shower. I guess the stupid spring loaded thing was more annoying than I thought.

Now for the potentially good news: I was elected, by my peers along with 4 others, to represent the body in the self governance team. Added responsibilities are given to us so I hope that the meetings we must attend don’t conflict with any plans I may have. If you are reading my blog, chances are you know me and that volunteering and subsequently being elected for such a position is right up my alley. The competition was stiff. There were 5 spots available and 16 nominees for a body of about 90 trainees. I was surprised to hear that I was elected, given the other nominees. I hope this is a barometer of the perception people have of me. I liked to be liked. I mean, who doesn’t?
