The class rooms are so small at St John’s that often the kids take to the fire escape.

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007This was hard
Wednesday, November 14th, 2007I have been doing fine emotionally to this point. This is a HIV center for teaching and helping out this people effected by HIV and AIDS. These kids were amazing, the teacher they had was fantastic to. But they are directly effect of HIV/AIDS or have it.
I meet with some the mothers. Single mom with 5 childern husband died of AIDS etc…
Hard very hard not getting emotional about it.
After this I realized I need to take the morning off tomorrow and wander around.Need to clear out the head.

Friday, November 9th, 2007Why a cage becomes a home.
Friday, November 2nd, 2007As part of my trip, I will be leaving behind two Olympus camera’s and teaching kids how to use them. The program is designed so they will create images that a EPIC Change will turn into cards that they will sell online.
Understanding a camera is the easy part, understanding the photography is the hard part. I have asked a few freinds to help me with this issue and I have got a fantastic minuter of different answers. The reality is they are all correct.
I need to let go and see what happens. To much plaining is too much.
Illustrate feeling
And the best images ask questions, like why is that rabbit in a cage and the cage is not catching the rabbit.
(a few years back, a rabbit started eating our garden. I went on a full attach to get that rabbit. Months later of failed catchings it snowed, the rabbit was able to eat the bird seed and use the cage as shelter.)
