I Miss you all

Hey
I've been having a fantastic time here! the air is clean, the food is good, the people are great and the learning is enriching.
My only beef: YOU GUYS! I miss you all and whenever I get a chance to check my email, my inbox is almost empty! I know I told you all not to really write because I wasn't certain of my internet status but I lied. I wanted you all to miss me and not be able to control yourselves and WRITE TO ME! tell me how your summers are going, what's new with you.
Today we had an intro to Ecology and also learnt some cool things about Restoration and the tough choices that need to be make (which animals should be killed in the name of saving other species, our idea of "wilderness" and how it is affected by others)
OH YEAH, yesterday I saw BEARS and they were not in a cage! they were in the distance rolling around in the grass. They were black bears. Apparently, in my sleep last night, Jessica sort of woke me up and I was saying "beets? beets?"
I think I'm turning into Dwight Shrute.
Salutations,
Salimah
