UN Update

We have had a tumultuous few weeks, couple of months rather, here at the UN where (quite literally) reinforcements HAD to be brought in.  America, Korea, and Honorary Spain all went to visit the WHO for a number of different reasons, Fiji got all excited when summer movies hit the theaters and the weather turned into cook-out weather (we have a Lovo planned!), Korea can barely contain itself with the excitement of going back to the motherland and share in the goodness that has been the past several months, and the Host Nations of the UN have been battling tax liabilities/assets for over two months!  


Korea has been greatly improving in ability to play tennis.  America gets to the (truly) international competitions as often as it can but still, that seems barely enough (can we say host guilt???).  Korea also rekindled a love of international music as Korea pounds the keys on the piano several times a week now (Korea playing Austrian in America???) all in preparation for the world (history) fair at school.  America could only dream of listening to the tickling of the ivories that Korea can do...it is simply fantastic!


Honorary Spain had visitors from the homeland unexpectedly drop by (amazing to say the least) and it was great for Fiji, America, and Korea to spend some time roasting marshmallows (among other activities, too many for details here) around a campfire after brats nearly exploded in the heat.  Honorary Spain had accomplished all that the UN had asked of him and he 'graduated' from the University of Hard Knocks sooner than expected so he is going on for graduate studies (rejoining the UN of couse) in a few years.  Lucky little duck Spain is, he got two graduation caps!  (How jealous are the rest of us???)


Fiji is busy at work racking up comp-time so that later in the year, when time off is really needed, Fiji will not have any issues using up the 'banked time' that he has stored up over the months.  It's almost like putting meat in a freezer for the day after you run out of grocery money.


America has been feeling better in previous weeks.  And man is that a relief!  Sometimes this condition doesn't clear up for months and all America would have left to do was suffer (and America avoids all suffering as much as possible, especially in an election year).


Man after all the adventures of the UN, America and Fiji need an international vacation...  Where shall we go???


The weather is good, the company is great, and the atmosphere in the world is looking up!  America, today, is thankful that world peace can be imagined!
