the past almost-24 hours has seen 2 comments on my previous post.
2 comments @ 10c a pop = 20c donation thus far? come now – that’s less than the bank charges involved in making the donation…
i’ve decided to extend the comment-period with another 24 hours.
for every comment received on my Blog Action Day post – i will donate 10c to one of their listed causes.
you’ve got 24 hours – make it count.
Tomorrow is Blog Action Day – the initiative to help rid the world of poverty. I am following Jacob Cass’ lead (he of Just Creative Design fame) in “doing my bit by leaving it up to you guys to decide how much I will donate.”
I will donate 10cents for every comment posted in the next 24 hours – starting from the time of this post. Leave a comment saying “I’m helping to rid the world of poverty”.

last night’s 8th graders’ conversation class got me thinking (again).
the topic of our class was: “I want a job that lets me travel”. i asked each student to name the top 3 identifiers of their dream jobs, which i listed on the white-board. afterwards, we discussed each student’s answers, their personalities and what we know of them and “chose” their ideal occupation. it looked pretty much as follows:
Andy:
1) help people
2) lets me play
3) not 9 to 5
Peter:
1) easy
2) lots of money
3) nice office
Tom:
1) work from home
2) lots of free time
3) creative
i was astounded – as by the end of the evening i realized that i had:
1 philanthropic, professional basketball player,
1 writer and
1 arms dealer in my class!
it got me thinking though… i’m probably not going to be TEFL for the rest of my life – so what would my list look like?
i’ve come up with the following identifiers (in no particular order) – what would you suggest?
i’m such a gemini, aren’t i.
“umshini wami” is a Zulu song favored by ex-deputy president Jacob Zuma during his rape trial. it translates: “bring me my machine gun”.
Peace!
