I survived the first week.  I shall be back for the second one tomorrow.  The people are amazing.  There's a woman in my class whose husband in currently posted to Jakarta.  Their kids go to the same elementary school.  Small world, isn't it?  And they've added a pool since I was there!  Back in the day, we were taken to the American Club a few weeks a year for swimming lessons.  Now, it appears, they get swim lessons year round right on campus.  Definitely a step forward.  I wonder if this should make me feel old.
Getting up at 6am to get to an 8am class on time is killing me.  At my old job, I would get up at 8 to get to my 9am job on time.  It's a small sacrifice in the grand scheme of things, though.  The training is interesting, and getting to spend 8+ hours a day with these people is worth getting up so early.  Now, let's see how many of us are saying that after 7 weeks together.
