Aha after long last I am here. Lets see what we did last week. Oh the stamps and letter thing. Sheesh In the end there was this problem because the letters had specific names in it then i only put the envelopes with names and stamps. So I felt quite bad >< cause I had piano already. But I specifically asked if they were in any order! Ah well mom calls.

Update on past few weeks!

Since this reflections blog has been 'dead' for more than a month, I'll be providing the update on the past two weeks.

We went around delivering brochures for one week and for the last two weeks we did some brochure editing. The Substation seems to be extremely dependent on brochures, as the lack of funding sort of disables the use of commercials, which would also be impractical. However, I feel that their publicity needs to be worked on.

For example, most conversations about RE topics go like this.

A: What's your RE-SL organization?
B: Er. Substation.
A: Huh?
B: It's sort of like an arts house promoting local talents.
A: Oh really? Where is it?
B: Funan there.
A: Got meh?

And so on...

Secondly, we got to work in the 'Random Room' which was actually really really fun. There was a music player, biscuits and lots of tea! Lipton tea! Tea motivated Andrew and I to work until 6pm or so, when we normally only stayed till 5++.


And lastly, it seems our RE proposal has had a stroke of luck. We were recently told that they were also planning to paint the classrooms this year, so we sort of came just in time. We are currently waiting for a reply, so keep your fingers crossed!

p.s. change the background and add a tagboard! =(
