Help the Dalit Feel Complete; Volunteering in India
Nikki Knight, Megan Pankratz and I (Anna Radke) are planning a volunteer trip to India on March 20-29, 2009. We will travel through a program called LONGITUDE This web page is incredibly detailed. Please check it out!








I will buy the CD/MD stereo! I'm Katie in Notogawa. Where do you live, Mark?
Yep its Mark, I live down in Ritto. Do you go to Japanese lesson in Yasu?? I will be going there on Thursday from 6 - 7:30 so could meet you there or maybe at the station?
Ah, my Yasu lessons are Wednesdays! And this Thursday I'm northbound after work. But I could scoot down to the Yasu station to meet you on another Thursday, either before or after your Japanese lesson. Just lemme know!
OK no problem, we can meet on another Thursday. Or I wonder how the centre would feel about leaving a little bag (with a stereo) in it for you to collect next time you come? Maybe tape an envelope to the white board with the money? Now theres an idea. The Yasu Bring and Buy Centre!
Alright then, Mark! I think it is probably OK if you leave something at the center for me to pick up because I have accidentally left things there for weeks on end before. Let's see, if you dropped it off this upcoming Thursday, I would get it the following Wednesday and leave the money for you to take the day after. That would be almost a week of it sitting at the center, but if they don't feel comfortable with it, I can easily meet you at Yasu station the next Thursday. Let me know what they say! Sankyuu.
hey mark I might be interested in the little light.
is it pretty dim?
Katie my teacher is going off on a wee trip this Thursday so I won't be going to class!! raishu?
Dan, the little light is pretty bright to read etc, I just like it as it means I dont have to use those mega fluorescent combini style lights in my bedroom!
Everyone else keep buying!!
yea man I totally know what you mean. I think I would be happy to take that off your hands...
anytime after today i can meet you somewhere to do the deal.. do you accept 500 1 yen coins??
(lol)
Raishuu on the real! Thanks, Mark.
Hey Mark, are you still going to your Yasu class this week? You can either bring the stereo there and I'll bring money when I go to my class next Wednesday, or if you are going to the June 29 BBQ, I'll be there. Whichever, wherever.
Hey Yeh I dont make a very good sales man huh? I will be coming to the BBQ on the 29th so how about I bring it to that? Sound like a deal? See you there.
I added some new things. Heaters, a fan and a bike!!
That's a nice new icon you've got there Mark.
BTW Mark is selling my Kusatsu bike right out from under me!
Hey Mark, I want to buy Erin's bike :p Let's work out a day that's good for me coming down there to get that and the bed. Have your people call my people.
Excellent! Someone from my Northern office will be in contact. :)
Well well well looked what got bumped back up ;)
I can bring the small things to Omi Hachiman this weekend if anyone wants? (heater, fan etc)
Hey Mark, Mayumi would like the fan for her workplace. Any chance you could bring it Sunday?
Yeah sure, I am going to look like a travelling sales man on the train!
Yeah, I will be at the BBQ! I will pay you for the stereo. I have lots of music trapped on Mini Disc. Help me set it free!
Mark!
Gomen!! I was going to get back to you earlier! - In the meantime - I was lucky enough to score a free gas range with the convenience of it being in the same place/time as me this past week. The plastic drawers are still of interest to me - but, saying that - if the hassle to pick them up is too much - I might have to pass on them, even though they're what I'm looking to buy.
What's your plans like for northern/Hikone visits in the near future?
thanks,
belinda
Hey Mark, how big is your tv? >.> Looking to replace mine because my laptop monitor is bigger than the tv screen. =\
Hi Talon. Sorry I haven't updated the list in a while but I just got rid of the TV :( I gave it to a recycle shop, you should have a look there for second hand TVs etc. Gomen
Hey Mark,
Is all okay to pick up the filing drawer thing tomorrow in Hikone station - 5:30pm? My messy papers eagerly await your response!
Thanks!
belinda
Hi Belinda
Yep I will bring the drawer tomorrow. I guess I will just meet you around ticket gates area as we should be getting in around the same time.
See you tomorrow.
