Swearing In Means One Year as A VOLUNTEER

Thursday was the Swear-emony for the AZ8's, which means that we have been actual real volunteers for a whole year!! How crazy?  A whole bunch of AZ7's came in for the ceremony which was really nice, not only because we were there to support the AZ8's but because we got to see each other and hang out.  And spend some time in Baku, which is always wonderful.  It was cool to see the ceremony from the other side of things and just appreciate it.  And my friend Carrie sang the national anthems (of Azerbaijan and the US) instead of having these heinous recorded versions that we had last year, and she sings so beautifully, it was wonderful.  All in all, a pretty great time!
