So while I'm in the blogging mood... Aside from that funeral, term 2 went well and fast. There's so much thats happened! Camp GLOW (girls and guys leading our world) was a major development. Volunteers from around the country nominate their brightest students to participate in a 7 day leadership camp. I was on the planning committee and in charge of one of the days of camp. My day was gender awareness and team building, hands down the most fun day. The team building aspect was turned into an olympic style theme. Tons of team spirit! We had 8 teams of 10 and the students were well mixed by region and language, so they had to make an effort. We started the day with opening ceremonies where the guys wore toga's and I had on a shetenge (pics on fb). They did a balloon relay, a scavenger hunt and a 4x4 wood walking relay. They had a blast. These activities were placed in between the gender awareness sessions. They talked about stereotypes and how to live outside of them, there's a gender birds eye view activity where they can listen to how the opposite gender views them, and the 4 corner activity that encourages them to take a stand on an issue and defend their stance. So all in all, a balanced day. Closing ceremonies took place at night. We lit the torch and our background music was the monday night football theme, so it was real intense. It was awesome. Each team came to me and lit their teams candle. We handed out prizes to the top 3 teams for the olympics and to a 4th team for spirit. The next day of camp was hiv/aids day, which included condom demonstrations where each child got to practice putting one on a wooden penis. Other days included a career fair, field trip to the parliament buildings and unam. The kids had a blast, I'd definitely say it was a success. The middle of term 2 was the Dirty 30s COS conference, close of service. A 2 day conference to talk about what you've done and whats next. About 6 people from my group are extending for a year, including Shannon and Julie, lovelies I've mentioned before. It seems about another 15 are travelling for a few months and the rest of us are heading home, usually for job or grad school purposes. The following 2 days was our All Volunteer Conference, with all the volunteers in Nam. They put us up in a nice hotel and we ate buffet style for 8 meals. Dope. We used that time to celebrate 50th anniversary of peace corps. Right after camp glow term 3 started. We're about a month in now.
