REFLECTIVE BLOGGING 4
I have just finished with my last editings on the 'Alternative energy sources' pages and I'm exhausted!! I mean, the work we have to do to look for information, read it and then reformulate it, is hard work..but it's nothing compared to what you have to suffer when waiting in front of your computer for that pink rectangle to disapear!!!..I mean the one that says: "X is currently editing this page but has been for more than five minutes (really 1000000 minutes)..."; this is a real pain!! Without mentioning when you do your part at the beginning of the week and then go back to see how the page is developing on Friday, and you can't find your part anymore...because it finished at the end of the page withput any reason!!!
Of course, these are all things we can survive with..I just needed to write it down and joke a little about it.
The skype exchange this week was fun. Alice and I talked for more than half an hour with Laura. To say the truth we didn't talk a lot about alternative energy sources...we spent most of our time talking about fraternities, which she called just "frats", and sororities. She told us how they work in Tulane and how expensive they are (this is the main reason why Laura decided to stop being part of a sorority after one semester). Moreover, she told us what she had done during her spring break and was very pleased to answer to our questions.
In the end we talked a little about biomass and solar energy. She told us that where she lives she has absolutely never seen any solar pannel! We also talked about our behaviour towards a responsible usage of energy and found out that, even if she too tries to be careful, perhaps we are a little more careful than she is. I'm looking forward to the next exchange!
