Week 7

Week 7 October 5 - 11^th

Day 43 – Visited Kudzra for my first parent/teacher-type conferences and got more students to apply to try to become a sponsored student.

Day 44 – Insane, stressful day but I ate raw sugarcane for the first time and took some great family photos with a tribal village family of one of my students.

Day 45 – Refrigerator survived the crazy tro-tro ride home so was able to enjoy a frosty hard cider and finally put my birth control in refrigeration.

Day 46 – Back to Ho, so lots of time at the cafe but finally made it to the big store, the joys of jelly and milk!

Day 47 – Totally awkward, maddening conversation with the dishonest mad that is in administration here, but yippee! He is not going to be teaching or doing as much school stuff anymore. Not totally gone unfortunately.

Day 48 – Finally got the new, not smelly mattress that has been a sore spot with the totally dishonest guy at the school. Hard as a rock but hey, better than the old one.

Day 49 - Bingo with my English classes with pens as prizes. They were literally squealing when they found out that they could keep them. Thirty cents does not bring that much happiness to kids back home I think.

This was not staged, helping Sampson with homework and Price sneaked my camera

Richmond VERY focused on BINGO
