How Long Can A Plan B Work In My System



Dia de la amistad

A few days ago, here eingeleutet the spring. Here is the festival of "Dia de la amistad", the "Friendship Day". The day started a bit strange and somewhat chaotic. Every morning all the children stood in front of the Casa Comunal, where the exercise books and school uniforms will be checked before the kids on their way to school . Make The older ones had but all things sports, since the Secundaria, her school, organized on this day a great sporting event. They went as normal, going to school on time. When I tried to make me straight with the child on the way to school, it was said that the school would fail due to construction. So all scurried back to their homes. Less than 20 minutes later, but then again all rounded up and we should go to school. Since but few had moved again, went Tio José already been faced with a group and I should then meet with the other group. Then, when all her school uniform again had dressed I'm with the kids went down to the street because I had understood that the children would take the bus to another school, as is indeed built in the Primaria. That would take the bus I have understood correctly, but this was not for the children with whom I went to the street thought. A bus had been the children of the secondary Daria, so picked up the older ones to go with them to the sports field.

So I got down the road and was wondering why no bus comes, to pick us up. The children also thought that would take place in the school by no means absent because there is so built now. Ironically, the day before, I had also forgotten to charge my phone, so I brought it not only and thus had to call Tio Hibo could not. Since the people know well below the road, the village children and a woman who had Tio Hibos number, was kind enough to lend her cell phone, but then we could call him yet. He said we should normally walk to school, what have we done so. At school, we met some of the children, who had gone off with Tio José, who felt that their classes are canceled yet. So we had to turn back and then back to the orphanage. On the way there we met on Tio José, who was quickly buy something.
Back in the village I came much too late for my lesson with Juan, which bothered him but apparently all too much ;).

Just when I finished, I asked Tio ibo if I could to cancel the other lesson and take the children something by Cieneguilla would. The children from the nursery have in fact all dressed very nice and decorated the Jeep. At its best it looks you simply look at the pictures, the kids looked really cute.























So we drove by honking at a walking pace Cieneguilla, until we arrived at the sports ground on which the elders had just their sports day. There we have looked around a little while, until we eventually came back again.














Actually, in the afternoon a couple of games were on the plan, but because the students came back later from their sports festival, the games were postponed to Saturday. Instead, I sat down again with Tio and Tia Hibo Sahra together and we have my schedule and the first weeks of talking. In the morning, nothing has changed for me but in the afternoon I'm going 2 times a week to give private lessons on Monday and will go with the sport. But the math group falls in the afternoon away with the somewhat older.

Homemade Boiler Plans



in Lima with Leo

WOW .... I think now I can claim to have been times in the real Lima. Miraflores is very nice and even a trip to a foreign culture, but since there tend to live the "upper class" and the many tourists, there is something quite different, if you then moved once in the center. The streets are full of people and everywhere there are small stalls, snacks are offered to eat. The offer is really huge. At each intersection there are Choclo con Queso. They are rather large ears of corn that are eaten with cheese. Or you can serve fresh squeezed juices, which come in all variations. And of course, are also offered here anticuchos, and they taste much better than the ones I've eaten in a restaurant in Miraflores. Leo and I have decided for Picarones. The ring of dough are deep fried, served with honey. And then we have nibbled rice pudding with Früchtemus. :)

I told Leo that I wanted to get a few things we have the historic Old Town of Lima, with its grandiose Plaza del Armas, the Cathedral and the government buildings, no longer seen. But our time has been sufficient and no longer. But I have still enough time here and I must not look at everything at once and only in the past flit:)

It started well .... to the fray. First, I wanted to buy a bag to stow and the other things that I wanted to get. Really great, it was natural that Leo is well versed, because alone I would have never found her way there. We were running about 10 minutes through the streets, until we turned onto a street in which it almost everywhere only backpacks and Bags were. Most shops were not even have a sales area of 20m ^ 2, but there were only determined at the 80 stores for bags. And then it was so similar in all things, wanted to get my hands on. So we came, for example, in a street where there was almost only musical instruments and music equipment. I wanted that is still around to get a guitar for my birthday ....
You get there in the streets and markets of almost everything, so there is a huge market on the only sweets are offered or just another market for toys, etc.. I got even a memory card adapter for my laptop. However, we do not have sandals I can find. Since most stores only carry shoes up to size 42, it is of course a bit difficult if you need size 44 or 45. But I am sure we would have searched a little longer, we would have found sandals for me.

After all the shopping, the crowded streets and the air in Lima is the whole exhaust pretty bad, we were really broken. So we were on our way home, for which we needed almost 3 hours because there was so much traffic. Back in the village it was then straight to bed.

Front Of Fingure Swollen After Shoveling Snow

Lima Kids Game 2

Lima Kids Game 2

This Saturday was rid of it by 7 clock to the football tournament of the Lima Kids participate. Since there is now again delicious rolls, I was sitting at the breakfast table just as the bus drove into the village already, to pick us up. Somehow I had understood things correctly and not well thought we would only leave an hour later. So I stuffed my roll quickly into his pocket and flitze in my room, in whom I then tried a few things, because after the tournament was still with Leo at the center. Of course, I forgot in the rush half and now I have no photos of the center or from the games because the camera stayed in my room. On the other hand, this might have been better so, for in the center it should be a little bit dangerous, so you must take good care of his valuables.

Like the last time we had a relatively long time to wait until the games finally began our teams. why some kids left the playground, but without prior notice to me or say to Leo. And just before the match, the girls were then two of the girls disappeared. We searched and searched, but they showed up. Only when the game had started already, the two were walking to a sports ground. Later, back in the village, there was also a bit of trouble and therefore probably have to stay the next two games in the village.

Well ... both games were pretty exciting again and the girls stood up to the penultimate 3-3 minutes. However, with a nice counter, we could decide the game for us and very nearly won 4:3. Immediately after the victory of our girls then the boys were at the row. Here, our boys managed it but unfortunately do not decide the game even for themselves and the boys played for the second time in a draw 3:3.

On the way back, Leo and I can have somewhere deposed and went to another bus to the center ....

Muscles Used In Arm For Shot Put



hunger and dogs ^ ^

Somehow there was no money left for 4 days in the village to buy flour. That sounds a little strange, after I have already told you in the latest report from the big birthday party, but such events the Tios and Tias probably pay out of pocket, close to the children happy.
Well ... so in other words, it was for breakfast in those days, only milk, so that the children and I started already with a hungry little stomach for the day. Ok ... once we have bought somewhere rolls, but were not as good as the ones here in the village in the Panaderia (bakery) own making. The bun tasted quite dry and sticky and were not very nutritious. When it also, in the days without proper breakfast, lunch and dinner were 3 days in a row only soup, I have not endured, and I am one evening went down to the main road and had taken a little at a Chifarestaurant. Chifa be mentioned here all the restaurants, where you can get Chinese or Asian food. As the waiter had already seen me more often with the children, he knew I'm from the village children and also took no tourist surcharge on the price:). With a full stomach I then made up on the way to the village. I had already just used to it, each of times 8 or 9 dogs barked on the path from the village main street and growled to be, but then it had the stupid dog, too have to overdo it. Usually they are just in front of their houses and barking in the opposite around alone in the dark but when I wanted to Children's Village, 4 or 5 dogs were on the sand road and stood in my way. As I stamped his feet and stood in their direction, I could keep them at bay until they tell me then after a few meters left in peace at last. The children later advised me to just take a big stone in his hand, then the dogs would disappear already . So I will soon be well again but armed with a stone, the evening before I set off to make children's village.

Back in the village then it was somehow a strange and uncomfortable feeling that the kids questioned me what I ate when Chifa so and then started to rave about what they had ordered for all delicious.

How To Fix Frostbite On Toes



Second week

In my 2 th week in Peru losgewesen is already a lot. During the week I had to do with my new plan much. The classes in the morning asking me fairly. some of my students have not experienced serious problems with their tasks and large Gaps. Sometimes I was really scared and was looking directly talk to Tio Hibo and Tia Sahra . I really did not know if the kids only wanted to take me in his arms, because they did not want me to do the tasks or whether they understand the tasks are not really. Just now I know still do not know how to customize the classes with some, but I hope, because I'll think of something. With others it works but also really good and the teaching makes the students and I enjoy.

Once I was with Marie Tambo , the center of Cieneguilla . There is a small market and some restaurants. With the micro need only 15 minutes and not even pay the equivalent of 25 cents. First, we strolled about the market until we have at some point looking for a restaurant, to also get again a little meat between the teeth . The fact there are not so often in the village. The trip has been worth it and now we know where in Cieneguilla times can do something, not some time to get a cabin fever if one is present only in the village.

Saturday, when we from football training came back, everybody is very quickly disappeared into their Casas in order to make for the big party chic. Mariella a girl from Casa 7 is namely a few days earlier turned 18 and on this occasion there was a big party. The 15 th and the 18 th birthday are here that is very special. Send in a children's village must also not as many invitations as are found immediately to the 100 people who celebrate a birthday. Here it comes, however, in no case in question, that a party is just stupid rum, so I was right by the children on the dance floor dragged and had to prove myself in Salsa and Cumbia .

Sunday were then young people from Lima in the morning from a church congregation for 2 hours to visit. Every Sunday and play a bit to come with the children. No sooner were they gone, came the very next visit to Lima. For several days the children looked forward to visiting some students of the University Pacífico in Lima. The whole afternoon was like a huge party. First, we were divided into 6 groups, who participated, each with a few children, a few students and the Tios . I was in the group "Blanco" , which was, in my opinion, of course, by far the best and most creative;) ... After it had all come together in their groups were able to start the games. In the first game, each group chose two representatives who had to then compete against the representatives of other groups in the eating contest. And something like that turned out to be the entire afternoon. In various games, such as sack race, musical chairs, tug of war or to make up in 15 minutes Koreografie , were the various groups against each other. In addition to games of course, the best mood maker who cheered their groups from the sidelines were evaluated. At the end there was a reward yet some candy for the winners and a small gift. I finished with my group but only the 3 th place: (... It really was a super fun afternoon and reminded me a bit of the summer camp of the KJG , which also always such a class mood prevailed.

My Bulldog Remote Car Starter Stopped Working

project and climbing the volcano

Hello!
Now I have the first week of project work in behind me and it was really interesting!
The children are very affectionate and devoted, but sometimes quite difficult. A 9-year-old who in the project lives as if he gets angry is knife from the kitchen to get his way, and another has several bikes from other children, a wall thrown down because he said they were not brought to the right place.
have the other hand, the same guys totally looked after caring for a little girl in the park that did not know where his parents were.
Now I'm glad the weekend is because it was a tough week. Yesterday I had climbed
with three other volunteers, the "Vulcan Pichincha, the volcano right next to Quito. It was really exhausting because the air was very thin and we were very proud when we finally on the top (4800 m) came in (the Wanderung hatte allerdings nur 700 HM).

Bis Bald!

Slides Of Male Jocks With Erections



The first weekend ...

Now I'm in Peru for a week and I am getting used more and more to living here at the orphanage. So slowly I begin to understand more and more to speak and to integrate myself. This works with the names of the children and Tios even better and the many dogs are everywhere mitlerweile switch to no more reason for me to cross the street.

This weekend was also already a lot going on. On Friday afternoon, the last training before the point was playing on Saturday. For the older children were from her coach, a sports student, picked up at the orphanage. We went to a small, sandy path, until we a small asphalt playground reached between some huts. The Kids play This mostly footsal , with 4 players and a goalkeeper, since there really are no grass courts. After practice we went back to the orphanage, where the others had already started cleaning up everything. Every Friday is here, namely a basic cleansing of the village on the plan.

On Saturday we made our early as 7 am on the way to Lima. All players and players and Leo, Marie and I as a supervisor, stuffed into a micro who drove us to Lima to the games. Why so early we had to drive off, then wait there for 3 hours, until the girls finally had their game at 12am, I still do not quite understand. I think we were the first team, which arrived and one of the last, which was finally still there. could, however, was not so bad because I used the time up to the games to purchase with a Leo simcard for my phone. returned

Then when I started the girls also play on the same. Unfortunately luck was not on our side and even in the first minute was one of our best players an elbow in the face and had to be replaced with a bloody nose. This setback could compensate for our team and we unfortunately lost the game 4-2.




The guys it worked a bit better but again we did not get a 4:4 against guys of CIMA , another organization also Cieneguilla , also. On the way back, the mood was still good and the micro turned into a little party bus. Suddenly there was a loud bang and I was pretty scared. Just next to me, I was sitting right in front Micro , was another bus will come a little too close and had taken our side mirrors. The bus driver said, it was not so bad and would happen more often.


Back in the village had then Tia Maria and Tio José output and I was alone with the kids . But this was not a big problem because the older ones have helped me the smaller bullies at bay to hold.

On Sunday I went back to Marie moved to Lima to get us to the Internet. After we arrived in Miraflores were, we really wanted to also see something else than just the typical tourist spots. So we made our way towards the center. Somehow was not such a great idea, because after 2 hours we had to run and are simply tired of the Metro moved back to Miraflores . There we have discussed then beaten 2 hours with a staff of Claro, until we were finally able to sign the contract for the Internet. I am now reconnected with the world and the next Posts will soon follow.

Does Burberry Make A Lambswool Scarf?





My working hours

Today I sat down with Tio and Tia Ibo Sahra, the psychologist, and we my tasks for the coming weeks have been discussing. My plan for the immediate future is rather full and looks about like this: (Click plan to read the plan better)



And yes ... I 'm really just before 6:00 on clock ... even if one can imagine with me hardly.

This is my daily routine for the next few weeks. You have to say however that I can vary the hours and something that not necessarily everyone abided by the agreed time. That is, if I am with someone make a date at 12, you can sometimes expect that he will come only at 12:45. But we know about that as yes and also from home ... ne Arne;).

The individual lessons I give, because some do not learn in school, but her books in the children's village and regularly need to tests to Lima. The math lessons in the afternoon are tutoring for some of the children and young people and the sport course, and the English course were ideas from me and the children.

I will have to do so in the near future a lot. At least it will not be bored yes!

Last week I made some cool trips with the other volunteers. We were on an indigenous market, on a crater lake and a waterfall, where we went swimming!

I just got pretty sore muscles, because we have played 2 hours yesterday with a couple of Ecuadorian football. Here you can feel the altitude pretty. I first could not remember when I once ran across the field.

In the village where I live now, the "fiestas" started - A month while many people come to every weekend to party and dance. There are many performances of traditional dances, fireworks and good food! On 18 September is even planned a bull fight, and here (thankfully) the bulls are not killed. Anyone can join, and sometimes there are casualties, because overestimated some macho.

How Long Does A Person With Stage 4 Melanoma Have



Lima ...

Yesterday I was the first time in Lima. Together with Marie, the other volunteers, I traveled with the Micro to Lima. Micros are small buses that can be seen virtually everywhere on the streets. They are real handy. Ca. every 15 minutes is a micro and goes for the equivalent of one by 70Cent Lima. The journey takes depending on traffic 1.5-2 hours.

arrived in Lima, we took the Metro to Miraflores. Marie knew each other from anywhere because they have a few days spent in Lima. As first we went to Starbucks around there, figure out in the public network, where the German Embassy. However, we had to find that they are only open until 11:30 clock. This is relatively poor when it is already 12 clock then! This one has it then, if we are not informed in advance. But now I have a reason to go again next week to Lima.

it was pretty awkward then, too. Since Miraflores is also a tourist area, there are everywhere l go down the street people who make money. And when Marie said that the banks are relatively high fees for change request, I wanted to try it on the street. That was then just on the doorstep and I was about 10 € ^ ^ shit. Fortunately, I first only a little had changed. Later we learned that there is a Casa de Cambio (change cambiar =) are, as I then switching into the rest. had now at last I could Soles and pay to drink my debt to Marie for the outward journey and what.

Later, we were still at the beach where there were many surfers. Well - the beach, you can not really say. But it was really quite impressive how steep it then goes up to the cliffs, which begins on the city.

After we were on the beach, we were still buying a few quick things and then I just had to try Antichuchos. After I had read in every guide book, as they should be a tasty, I could not wait. Explanation: Antichuchos are skewers of beef heart in a barbecue sauce. That sounds a little strange at first to first, but I can only confirm the reports. They are really delicious. We have then drink Pisco Sour. This is a cocktail made of Pisco, a grape is brandy, lime juice, sugar syrup and beaten egg.

full and happy we have then made their way home. With so much traffic was the return trip took almost an hour longer than the outward journey. It was getting really dark and I was totally shit all the dogs running around on the little dirt road to the village children. Armed with a thick stone made Marie and I after we got out of the Micro, on the way from the main road up to the orphanage. Of course it was all the fuss for nothing and the dogs were just outside their houses and have rumgebällt. Back at the orphanage, the children made themselves a little fun of me when I told them that I had such a fear of dogs.

Colloidal Silver Mould



The first impressions ...

After my first night in the village I had breakfast with the children at the Casa Uno. In this house I am every day with Tio Jose, Tia Maria (Tia Tio = uncle and aunt =) and the 12 children eat together, and in budget help. After the meal was Joel, a boy from Casa Uno, my children's village. In addition to pigs, rabbits, geese, ducks and sheep, here also guinea pigs are kept, which will land at some point on the plate ...

particular, I was happy when I found out then that there even is another volunteer who for 6 months here in the village will work. Her name is Marie, comes from Paderborn and has, I just made her Abi. Together with her, I will be riding morning to Lima to me by the German Embassy to register and buy a few things.

After Joel had taken me around, we played some football. The kids here are crazy about football. On the walls hang posters in their rooms everywhere and newspaper articles of football players from Germany. They are particularly proud to Pizarro and Farfan in the Bundesliga. They ask me all the time, whether I ever got to see play.
Hardly had we played 10 minutes, I scored a direct lamp broken and so the game was also stopped again ^ ^. But this was not a problem.

Here are a few photos from the first days:
