Today we begin working on the beds at the orphanage. We want to increase the number of children they can take in so that there’s less children sleeping on the street at night. They are very poor here. 17 of us came to Peru from Winnie. So far, no one has gotten sick and everyone… Read More »
The night we stayed in Lima was very short, but I did not sleep very well at all. We arrived in Tingo Maria yesterday around 4:15pm, ate dinner around 7:30pm, and just enjoyed not being in a vehicle. I slept great last night, as did everyone else that I know of. They were raving about… Read More »

Next week, I’m going to replace another. Â The following week, I’m just going to bring water. Â The week after that I’m… Read More »

Â It’s a fun game where you work with others around the world, building cities, making friends and enemies alike. Â It’s free to play and… Read More »

As a student, I get access to some software at discounted prices. I bought a legal copy of Windows 7 from Microsoft for $30 at win741.com. I installed it the night of the release a week ago. I installed an early beta version some time ago, and it didn’t impress me much. This, so far,… Read More »
I believe in a balanced budget and therefore will vote for a freeze in government spending until that goal is realized. I believe government should not increase the financial burden on its citizenry during a difficult economic times, therefore I will oppose all tax increases until our economy has rebounded. I believe more than four… Read More »
