I received Sylvia's email today, in which she wrote that she did mail her registration form yesterday, but she might have forgotten to sign it. That's just great. I am so disappointed. What can I say? I guess she tried? Sigh.
My Chinese entry visa was granted today too. I got it from the travel agent, who was very busy on the phone, so I left her office without getting a quote on the tickets. After searching the fares myself online, I realized the they really weren't that cheap. Why did I assume a round-trip ticket was going to cost me less than $800? I could be so clueless. I will double check with Megan tomorrow (if she comes back) and make my decision. I feel like I really need a job now, hahaha.
After our meal at India Sweets and Spices, Dave and I went to the NO On Prop. 8 Office in Silverlake. I felt so good and positive being there as a volunteer. There were a lot of people working on the phones, organizing the upcoming events, discussing various methods and strategies, or just helping out any way they can. My job was to enter the data from the phone call records. Did the respondents' answers correspond to one of the coding numbers? Were there any wrong numbers? What if they didn't speak English? There was a code or number to each situation and answer. I actually had a good time there. Who knew there were so many people who were passionate about human rights and determined to make a difference? I felt very proud to be a small part of that movement.
