February 4th- In the afternoon we were picked up by JSM and driven to our first event where we were in charge of placing signs outside the event, decorating the space and signing people in the event. When we started placing signs outside I found out that the ground becomes frozen and it is extremely hard to place signs in the ground! Being so used to living in Florida, I completely forgot about the effects of cold weather. We ended up placing the signs on the snow and areas of the ground that were not as frozen. The advance team for Biden walked us through how the event will work and even discussed the plans they have in place in case there are protestors.

I cannot express how excited this made me. I have not had a truly authentic gyro in about 6 years! so sad. So today Manuel, Ireland and I went to the gyro spot to finally get that gyro I have been craving for 6 years. Just walking up inside the building I instantly was overcame with emotions of pure happiness, the smells, the greek writing all of it was part of the experience. We all ordered the authentic pork gyros, loukoumades which is fried dough with honey syrup and cinnamon and sat down to enjoy our much needed lunch break. After so many years of not having luck to eat a truly authentic gyro, my standards were high.....but let me tell you it was absolutely phenomenal! The first bite I took took me back home to Greece eating gyros with m...
