Everything here is flooded. It is still raining. Many houses are flooded and The water in many places is almost knee high for me. So the boots i bought are not doing much besides weighing me down. :) I am writing a proposal now to the LNU president for using their space as well as seeing if they will start an FSL class as an elective to get the hearing interested and eventually that they would set up an interpreting program for them to get a degree and work in the schools so the Deaf students can learn equally among the hearing. This will take a while but it is worth bringing it up while i finally have her in front of me. That is my long term goal here in the Philippines is to get that set up. I had to buy contact solution the other day because i am running low... it took me a long time to finally find some because not many here wear them. But it was 7$ for the same solution i buy in the US for $3. Because they don't have it anywhere else. So that was a bummer having to buy that. But it was a necessity. Right now there are three poor Filipino boys staring at me through the window and I am trying to ignore them. Ok.. so here is one quick story that doesn't pertain to me... and i am very glad. One of the volunteers had a soggy roof because of all the rain and three cats got ontop and the board caved in on what happend to be his bed. While he was sleeping three of them landed on him and started scratching because they were in the bug net. He started screaming and the homestays came upstairs and chased the cats out. But he was pretty scratched and has to get rabis shots now. I am not very sensitive and couldn't stop laughing when he was telling me and showing me his wounds. He, however did not think it was as funny as I did.
There is a lot more to update but I am too busy with the proposal right now.
much love.
