T-1: My First Official Day as an Einstein Fellow!



Today was AMAZING! We (the entire group of Einstein Fellows) were at Orientation from 8:30(ish) to 4:30, then went to the Einstein statue (off the very end of the National Mall near the Lincoln Memorial) for our official Einstein Fellowship photo shoot. We took a TON of pictures; serious group shots, funny group shots, agency shots (DOE, NSF, etc.), and individual shots. My group of 4 Fellows arrived before anyone else (we drove instead of taking the Metro), so we had time to take a bunch of "fun" shots (hence my 2 photos on the blog).
After the photo shoot, we went to Buca di Beppo (a funky Italian restaurant) for dinner and drinks. It was a BLAST - one of the few days all 24 of us (including the 2nd-years) will be together.
I start at NASA tomorrow! OH. MY. GOSH!!!
