El pan de cada día en España

Posted 06-29-2008 at 05:57 PM by Lesley D
There’s seems to be little hope in finding a solution to the problem. Es el pan de cada día en España. Immigrants flee from coastal Africa and other nearby countries desperate to reach the south of Spain or Tenerife in search of a better life. The irony is even if they do stay illegally is their life any better in Spain than in their country of origin? Living the life of an illegal immigrant has its consequences but in comparison to what they suffer in their own countries, life in Spain is considered...

Día Mundial Del Refugiado

Posted 06-21-2008 at 12:40 AM by Lesley D
This is such a well-written article about the human crisis of displaced people around the world. It's no surprise that the African continent has many displaced people due to civil war and unrest as well as poverty as evidenced by the number of people who risk their lives daily in small unsecure boats to reach the coast of Spain or Italy. Spain really has a crisis on its hands with the number of Africans who cross over daily and arrive in extreme conditions of suffering. It really makes the Cuban...

Freshmeat or transfer?

Posted 06-12-2008 at 03:02 AM by Theforceinme
It is really late (almost 2am) but I wanted to post a bit of what I did today.

I went to PUCMM to try and get a copy of my transcript from LSU. With this, I hope to transfer at least some credits to Intec so I won't have to take all of the freshman classes again.

The photocopy from PUCMM will get the process started, and the original that I will get from LSU will validate the whole thing.

All in all, pretty happy at how easy it was to get all my paperwork...

Shopping, work and not much else...

Posted 06-08-2008 at 01:20 AM by Theforceinme
I went to Almacenes Unidos at the end of Churchill Ave today. I was buying some odds and ends for the new apt.

Nothing else going on... worked this morning... it was good but tiring. These kids really want to get out of school and to vacation. I could use a vacation too...

Well, nothing else on a Saturday... too bad

New apt, new school, new friends

Posted 06-05-2008 at 01:38 PM by Theforceinme
A lot of news lately! I just moved into a new place - not far from the old and still in the center of Santo Domingo. I am remodeling my small little room, and furnishing it to my liking. It's expensive, geez.

Intec, Intec... I still can't believe I will start university this semester. I'm going to be busy as hell... but at least I will feel like I am progressing, as opposed to just 'working'.

I met ppl from DR1 last weekend! I went to Matilda's house in Juan Dolio,...
