In the morning I went to Lenox Coffee again for WiFi. Following breakfast, we had a meeting regarding programming ideas. Some people came up with typical ideas like movie nights, ice cream socials, or dances. Others thought up more creative ideas like spa nights, paper airplane contests, and "be that composer" days.
Next all of the RAs went on campus tours for "quiet hours" and "curfew" with the SRAs showing us the typical courses. After that it was lunch time and I practiced some more piano. That afternoon all of the RAs went through job simulations for typical situations in both the dorms and on the front desk. Even though the SRAs presented extreme situations, these simulations gave the RAs a good idea of what to expect when the students, parents, and facility start to arrive on the BUTI campus. That evening I practiced flute and went to the Lenox Fitness Center with some RAs. We had the intention of going to a "spinning" class but the instructor did not show up. As a result we all did our own workout for about an hour and returned to campus with enough time to catch the end of dinner. That night a large group of staff went to the movies again. About half of us saw "Green Lantern" while the other half saw "Super 8."
Tomorrow is a day-off and I can't wait!

Until then, good night & good music!
