i'm getting better at being faithful... sorta.

hmmm, so whats new?

lots of stuff, but i really don't feel like typing... and we all know you hate to read. so pictures it is! (: 

i started my world map project at my local market. basically you paint a map of the world on the wall to help increase geography literacy.  i figured the market would be a good location to do it because a lot of people frequent the place to buy their groceries. (and by groceries i mean, onions and tomatoes.  because thats all you can buy there. jk. but majority of it is onions and tomatoes.) but anyways, i decided to get the children involved thinking itd be a good idea. well, ha, baaad idea... well, first off. if you want an accurate map, you should only get adults with some what of a knowledge of the world to help.  if you want new countries and seas to exist, your local children are good at that.

basically, at the end of day two of map work we had the united states of mexico annnd chargentina! also, the black sea became a country and so did some huge lake in canada. among other mistakes that i've found along the way. way to go children! 

but on a positive note, the reason why i'm doing the map is so that they know that the united states does not extend to the east side of mexico, and so forth. and its somewhat working. today i was painting with a boy and playing wheres that country! he now knows where japan, china, russia, egypt, there is not an extended piece of land on the east side of mexico. 

annnd, now that i've finished it my friend tells me that she sees all the children looking at it after they finish from school. wooot. success!

i've started feeding children. hahaha. 

the kid that gave me skin diseases. no joke. i helped this small boy clean his hands... and after i finished he pointed to his hands and said something in his language that i didn't understand but i figured he was telling me about the disease that he had on his hands. annnd, now. i have those same bumps on my hands. ): last time i play with dirty small children. ps. we slept on the roof, behind. it was pretty damn awesome. 

awesome signboard in tamale... thats right kids, it retards development!! fight, fight, fight!

ps. no matter where i seem to move electricity hates me ): i seriously am literally juuust outside from where there is electricity. it sucks. i have this beautiful house and the shack (literally a shack) that like 5 feet from my house has electricity.
