Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: February 2011
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. Which way does time go again? Day 18: February 24th 2011. Nothing special to write about today. I had a day off and spent most of the time in solitude, seeing Jasper and Brecht had to teach. Fun fact: I don’t get bored nearly as fast as I used to. Day 19: February 25th 2011. Day 20: February 26th 2011. Later, we went to some vantage points. The views were amazing. I didn’t take any pictures, but I guess you’ll have to do with my description. That, ladies and gentlemen, is Ghana.

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: Finally, some progress!
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011/03/finally-some-progress.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. Finally, some progress! Day 34: March 12th 2011. Especially because he’s got Osmond to take care of. However, he won’t be able to if he insists on not letting his body rest. Hope he’ll take our advice and get some more sleep. Day 35: March 13th 2011. Day 36: March 14th 2011. We talked to Winfred and made some more price estimations. This time it was for the tables and benches made solely out of wood. That, and our other mentors thought that now would be a good time to tell us...I wro...

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: INTJ's will be INTJ's.
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011/03/intjs-will-be-intjs.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. INTJ's will be INTJ's. Day 27: March 5th 2011. Me neither, but I should’ve filmed and uploaded it. It appears normal to them, yet funny to me. It’s amazing how early they learn how to dance. They were teaching Ellis how to dance by moving her body for her. Keep in mind she’s only one year old. Those Ghanaians danced the night away. Day 28: March 6th 2011. It’s Independence Day! During this whole ordeal, Lynn, a colleague of ours, held Ellis. It was heartwarming to see how she too...

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: Kiwi fruit bananas
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011/04/kiwi-fruit-bananas.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. Day 49: March 27th 2011. I feel better than yesterday, worse than the day before that. We went to Ho to do the usual. Nothing special happened, except that it started raining an hour after we started swimming and the trotro driver hit a sheep while swaying away from a bump on the road. Day 50: March 28th 2011. I’ve been feeling lightheaded all day, my stomach feels pressured and my neck is killing me. Day 51: March 29th 2011. We saw other white people on the market today. New one...

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: One week left... (did not proofread)
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011/04/one-week-left-did-not-proofread.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. One week left. (did not proofread). Day 67: April 14th 2011. We went to Ho to get our passports back. After we did, we did the usual. I don’t think I’ll have to go into the details again. Day 68: April 15th 2011. At 0400 we woke up to leave for Accra in order to buy some portable electric tools for our department. We had Etsey drive us, while Dadey and Dikro (the estate officer) were accompanying us. 2 small orbital sanders. 1 big orbital sander. Blades for all of the planing machines.

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N.: January 2011
http://ghanamakeadifference.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. Slightly more than a week left. Can't sleep, can't concentrate. Leaving in nine days. Exam coming up. I keep doublechecking everything I think or do. I don't know how to describe it, but seeing I've only ever visited neighbouring countries (except for Vietnam when I was six years old), I feel the pressure building up. I think I've been taking this whole thing too lightly. Only time will tell wether I'm right or not. Time to try and get some shuteye again. Good night! A little shout-o...

Make it H.A.P.P.E.N. Past half our stay. Day 41: March 19th 2011. We took the trotro to Ho today. Same thing we did last Sunday, except this time we went with more people. Annelies, Elke, Lynn, Sanne, Joyce, Brecht, Jasper and I all met up at the trotro station. One thing I’m sure we all had in common was that we were desperately longing for that swimming pool. We arrived back home at about 1900. I’m beat! Day 42: March 20th 2011. I never thought monkeys would be this awesome. There’s a huge di...They ju...
