We're famous (not really)!

We did it! Check out this article (with picture!) in the Honduras Tribune...New volunteers to work in Honduran communities! You can copy and paste it into freetranslation.com to get the gist of it, but it's just a very basic overview of our work. Click on the picture to make it bigger (or go here) and you can find me smiling in the front row, wearing my high school graduation dress. We're a pretty good-looking group and look almost entirely female here, but all the boys are hiding in the back.

Special shoutouts to the awesome faces made by Ruth and Aimee. Also, if you feel like being amused, check out the statement (in all caps, of couse) by "Rocky" below in the comments on the article. You can freetranslation it, but it basically says we only came here to evade military service, learn Spanish, and spy on people in the country. It finishes with the lovely metaphor of us being wolves in sheep's clothing. Awesome. The other comments are nice.

But anyways, congratulations to every single member of H17, the entire group of 57 of us that flew here on June 23 and were still all there to swear in together on September 10th. We did it!
