Peace Corps South Africa!: October 2009
http://thosecrazykidz.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. If you hate the tweets, give up now; else, read on. Remember the landing scene in Serenity? That's what it's like to ride the bus down a dirt road in rural South Africa. I swear to God, a first grader who barely speaks English just used the phrase, "2D object". Math class was a lesson on collecting poll data, but it just descended into a debate on which animal is best. (ans: leopard). Writing a blog about Twitter.

Peace Corps South Africa!: September 2009
http://thosecrazykidz.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. The Owl and the Pussycat(s) (Andy). Some stories about some encounters I've had with some animals of some country called South Africa. During our free time, we made our way over to the tower, which I estimate was about 100 yards high. One by one, people climbed to the top and telled down, "You absolutely have to. I'd decided that if by the time I got to the tower, if there were people there, I would climb it. ...

Peace Corps South Africa!: January 2010
http://thosecrazykidz.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Saturday, January 16, 2010. I have inconveniently long femurs and other things I've learned from Peace Corps. The obvious first thing I've learned is that I'm not a blogger by nature. I've just been so busy having my life-changing experiences, you know? Things I learned in November:. Transitions are hard. Okay, maybe this is more like a re-learn, but it always feels like the first time. Church is fun and you can sing whenever you want to.

Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Tuesday, August 25, 2009. What South Africa Thinks of the US (and other weird things). Let me preface this entry by saying that this is definitely from my very limited perspective and is mainly absorbed through pop culture. Otherwise known as “America”. It’s of no use to explain that there are several Americas which are also continents. To say that Brazil is also in an America is absolutely absurd. Seemingly not that interesting in terms of n...

Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Wednesday, May 5, 2010. My Perfect Peace Corps Day. My perfect day started at 7:40 when my cell phone alarm went off. Note that my morning gets to start a little later. I don't have to teach until 9, so I like to sleep in a little. One of the very nice things about being a volunteer is setting your own schedule. Next, I went to talk to the HOD (head of department-a vice principal of sorts) about a letter she wanted help on her English with an...

Peace Corps South Africa! Andy and Lauren talk about feelings. Wednesday, November 11, 2009. Don't Buy From Bookeen (Andy). Back when I first thought I was going to be joining the Peace Corps, the tech geek in me asked, "What gadgets do I absolutely need. Top of the list: ebook reader. I landed on the Bookeen Cybook Gen3. While I'm waiting for the train, I whip it out and see that the display is cracked. Fair enough. I'd thrown it into my mail carrier bag, which had been dropped, stomped upon and...Greet...
