Un historia y entrevisto conmigo

So I thought I would let the cat out of the bag and share to the world that there is likely going to be a news story about Students Without Borders, and my work with CEDRO. This isn't really new news...I have known about it for a month or so, but like always - I have this weird thing where I harbour information that other people might find interesting to myself and don't tell them until the last minute, or until it's a done deal.

For example, going to Waterloo was a decision I made long before I actually applied, but I didn't really tell many people until I had actually applied, or going to Lima, I didn't tell a lot of people until I had actually applied or even gotten the position. I don't know...I'm weird like that I guess.

Anyway, there is a reporter with CanWest from the Okanogan, her name is April Lawrence. She was granted a fellowship for a project on Canadian development projects and it took her to Honduras and Peru, and, as luck would have it, I am the only Students Without Borders volunteer based out of Lima at this time.

Last Friday April came to the boy's group home and I did a short interview with her (wherein I look god awful. I kid you not, I look god awful...but that's okay because everybody knows I don't look like that in real life right? Right?!?!). There was also an interview with Melody, the house psychologist and 3 of the boys who live in the home. There is some interesting footage of me doing a really awkward dance with everybody laughing at me...oi vay. Hahaha.

She also did another interesting story on microcredit. Off the top of my head I cannot remember the major non-profit microcredit organizations, but as soon as I email April again and ask I will pass along the information!

So, I am not really sure when that story will be put together, let alone aired. But just so you, my dear readers know, that there might be a chance I will be on TV! Anyway...el esta tiempo para mi voy a dormir! Entonces, buenos noches mi quierido lectores!

Besos,
Renee
