I am now on instant coffee so for those who knows how much I love my lattes you understand how much I am suffering each day…lol. Supposedly, suffering is good for the souls. At least, that is what people tell me. Well, I will gladly trade all the sufferings for one good latte machiato…because that is also good for the soul.
I hope to get all the children in to Don Bosco soon. So far we have gotten 4 in and this week we planned to bring 4-5 more in on Saturday. It is quite funny how everyone is trying to help me here. People seemed to want to be helpful, but it always end up to be more work. Every week, I would take a 45 minute crowded bus ride to Don Bosco and an hour even more crowded bus ride back to speak with Father Myppan so we are understanding each other. However, they suggested (asked) that I call them instead so that I don’t waste time traveling. This week, I decided to call and set an appointment time to bring the children in. Well, to make a long story short, I can’t understand what the person on the other end of the phone line is saying and he or she can’t understand me. So in the end, I will have to take the bus there to make the appointment to be sure Father Myppan will be there on Saturday when we bring the children in. I have also learned that to be certain of anything here, I need to see their eyes when I am speaking with them to determine if they have understood what I wanted for them to do or what I need from them.
