I realized that it's been a really long time since I've posted a blog. Lots of amazing things that been going on in my life.

I'm the new vice president of the food security committee. There's so much work that comes with being that. I have lately I've been really busy. I've been working on an action plan for 2012-2013 for where food security is headed. There's a technical exchange in Mali next month and I really want to go to it. It's about food transformation and my community could really benefit from it. I hope that I get to go to that.

The other day I was sitting at my house having a conversation with my neighbor Paul. We really got into a deep conversation on the rights of women. I asked him if he would be willing to cook dinner for his wife and he said absolutely not. Which lead me to get all fired up about women's right and empowering girls. He told me that I wouldn't be able to find a man who agreed with me so I set out to find one. I went to the CSPS and tried to talk to the Majore about it. He didn't agree with me, and I really thought he would. He asked me if I ever saw any other girls playing soccer with the guys except for me. He had a point so I went to the school and told Yago that I wanted to create to a girls soccer team at the school. He was so supportive so practice starts Monday! I am looking for a soccer ball and I applied for a grant to fund the entire soccer team. It's gonna be great. I can't wait to start. We are also submitted a grant to fund hand washing stations to learn about hygiene. Things are going to be great.

I got applied for my visa for Ghana. If all goes well I'll be headed to Ghana on the 23rd of next month. Its going to be ther best. We are going to go camping and relaxing at the beach. It's going to be amazing. I'm so looking forward to it. Things lately have been great.
