Not Lost, Just Wandering

Not Lost, Just Wandering. Wednesday, May 18, 2016. 25 Thoughts I Had On My 25th Birthday. The end of my service is near, my friends. My mind is racing more than ever. Here's a little clip of what the inside of my brain looked like as I turned a quarter century old. 1) Why am I itchy? 2) I have to help my students prepare for an English debate contest. That's coming up on Friday. Guess I'm working until the bitter end! 3) How many more call-to-prayers do I have left to listen to in Indonesia? 22) I'm itch...

Not Lost, Just Wandering : Akward Moments and Weird Things I've Done

http://peacecorpskruti.blogspot.com/2016/04/akward-moments-and-weird-things-ive-done.html

Not Lost, Just Wandering. Saturday, April 2, 2016. Akward Moments and Weird Things I've Done. I've had my fair share of embarassing and just plain strange moments these last 2 years. Here's a highlight of just a few. I sat there for 3 hours until a teller finally asked, "Miss, do you need help with your account? I'm just reading" I gave him a friendly smile and returned to my book. I didn't want her to think I was strange, so I said, "Yeah! Totally normal, ibu.". May I Help,. Not even a minute into shred...

Not Lost, Just Wandering. Wednesday, October 14, 2015. Teaching and other things that bugged me last month. Jam Karet: the art of being fashionably late. Why this used to bug me:. My last job before Peace Corps was a resident assistant position at American University’s Housing and Dining Programs (go eagles). Our motto was, “Five minutes early is on time. On time is late. And late is unacceptable.” When I moved to Indonesia, I knew I would be encountering jam karet,. Why I have come to love it:. I’...

Not Lost, Just Wandering : September 2015

http://peacecorpskruti.blogspot.com/2015_09_01_archive.html

Not Lost, Just Wandering. Saturday, September 5, 2015. Smoking and XX Chromosomes. These are just micro-stresses, though. There are instances where this culture frustrates me to the point where I have to escape into my room for relief and reflection. One of my female students once told me I would look prettier if I wore a hijab. I didn’t know how to respond. Do I tell her that I’m not Muslim and therefore I’ll never wear a hijab? Do I tell her I’m pretty just as I am? If a woman smokes? I’m going t...

Were often depicted as lazy, consistently late, and irresponsible. Naturally all of this information terrified me when I was first introduced. Yes, things work a slower here.

http://gentlequakes.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Friday, March 14, 2014. Written on the plane from Denver International Airport to Peace Corps Staging in San Francisco. Do you ever experience nostalgia over the present moment as if it is already a memory? Or do you ever experience this moment with a sense of unadulterated wonder? Or maybe you hover above the present moment. Like a omniscient narrator unfolding and weaving your own tale, picking out the similes, metaphors, planting the foreshadows, searching for the characters and settings that buil...

A drop indo bucket. For the romantic minimalist, memories make the best souvenirs: A public journal of my journey through the Peace Corps in Indonesia. December 1, 2014. 8220;A grateful heart is a happy heart.”. I saw this written on a wall almost three years ago. And, it has always resonated with me.

The Art of Letting Go.

Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Ants in my Pants (And Other Reasons to Smile). It was the day of Idul Fitri. This day marks the end of Ramadan where Muslims in Indonesia and around the world celebrated one of their most important holidays. In Indonesia, families travel to their hometowns and break their month long fast together. They also visit their friends and neighbours to apologize for things they have done in the past and may do in the future. Can you see the lingering horror in my eyes? As we headed for ...

You use tissues to blow your nose. You actually think twice before taking a 10-hour bus ride. You’re not afraid to swallow the water when you shower. When som...

Lindsay in Moldova | Stories from a health educator and Peace Corps volunteer

Stories from a health educator and Peace Corps volunteer. This Week’s Lesson. This is not Moldova. August 2, 2011. I feel like I’m carrying a screaming, squirming infant in my arms and no one is noticing. Most people just ignore it. Some let their eyes pause briefly on it, ask a quick question and turn back to their smartphones. Very few take the time to find out what I’m holding, and then I find I have no words to explain what has happened to me. And it’s fun for the kids! So now I’m desperately waiting...
