learning meringue
I had this "job" living in undergraduate residence halls being an all-purpose big-sister/organizer/mediator/task-master. I think I was also supposed to be an intellectual inspiration, but not so sure if that happened. As vaguely worded as the job was, it was intense and took up a lot of my dissertation time... but in return I had a place to live and discovered an energetic crew of student friends. The toughest part was having to draw the line on certain types of behavior according to the rules (some of which might be necessary, but didn't really make sense).
Here, we are learning meringue. We helped organize an event for international students - we had lots of great food. Fun and food seem to attract people. This was a pretty successful event as college programs go... managed to appeal to a wide spectrum of students who usually don't seek out stuff beyond their comfort zone. We had a blast.
