They returned home yesterday and today we pulled from them some BFO's - Blinding Flashes of the Obvious or "AhHah Moments."<br />
<br />
(Some are direct quotes, others are statements we created from listening to them tell their stories. Calle Seis refers to the name of a street the group visited.)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Calle Seis was the moment when I realized we were really doing something to help people.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">It's hard to communicate even with words, we met a young girl at the school who was deaf and had no language (sign or speech), yet she found a way to talk with us. Awed and inspired I couldn't imagine what her world must be like.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">"As I realized how similar I am to those I met, I stopped thinking of or noticing the severe differences in our life styles."</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsgokWY5920L96a7ySMU8TIq9nOqIT0u6l4VaeBuLTt8kV-CqdPwNSN-_rAHbuSjB2cGkYy-8P1VYgksSFJnwlFfAet5m27iwS1rWWpDwuhQ2ME5wTD318arQuIHzChF4xV_zSSDK43h8Z/s1600/littlegirl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsgokWY5920L96a7ySMU8TIq9nOqIT0u6l4VaeBuLTt8kV-CqdPwNSN-_rAHbuSjB2cGkYy-8P1VYgksSFJnwlFfAet5m27iwS1rWWpDwuhQ2ME5wTD318arQuIHzChF4xV_zSSDK43h8Z/s320/littlegirl.jpg" width="179" /></a></div>
<span style="color: red;">The hospitality and positive attitude rose high above the impoverished neighborhood we walked through. A little girl on Calle Seis invited me to come over to her. She posed happily for a photo. This stood out for me because the people were so open to us, unlike what it might be like in my home country. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Dominican Republic - full of beautiful people with big hearts and open arms.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">These girls were able to state their dreams and goals because of the existence of the Mariposa DR Foundation, in a country where women have few opportunities.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Walking down Calle Seis you can tell the people had so much less than us, yet they were all willing to invite us into their homes, talk with us and share their lives with us. I realized instead, they had so much more than us. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Visiting Calle Seis, seeing the houses of the girls we were working with and the poverty they faced daily was a defining moment for me.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">I met a girl who has been deaf and mute her entire life, she wanted nothing more than to give her time and communicate with us.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">The kids and adults are so much friendlier, despite the language barrier they still wanted to work with us.</span>Brickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03248829307271266144noreply@blogger.com0Dominican Republic18.735693 -70.16265099999998314.888388500000001 -75.32622499999998 22.5829975 -64.999076999999986tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023325196195188892.post-5434704266832701932013-03-15T14:38:00.002-04:002013-03-15T14:38:57.533-04:00Caribbean Grande<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Also they must be tired because of the amount of work they are putting into their travels. Everywhere they go they have to put effort into propelling their canoe/kayak through the water. In addition, they need to set up and break down camp often. Kayaking was with a tribe, while canoeing was with guides. Although, we didn't expect to hear from these groups, we do hope they have safe travels back to us and we get to learn about their experiences soon.Brickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03248829307271266144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023325196195188892.post-74809848711852829582013-03-15T13:51:00.001-04:002013-03-15T13:51:25.488-04:00Show Me the Green<br />
Students in Be Your Own Boss are pitching the ideas for their business ventures to a board of investors. The three groups came up with one idea each. The ideas are as follows:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>A laundry service for the LA community</li>
<li>Cabs and Coffee- an on call taxi service</li>
<li>Welcome Home!- a dog training service that trains people how to care for a dog.</li>
</ul>
<br />
The students also went to small businesses to educate themselves about the life of a business owner. The two most recent businesses they visited were <a href="http://www.plasterfuntime.com/" target="_blank">Plaster Fun Time</a>, and<a href="https://www.harvardsweetboutique.com/" target="_blank"> Harvard Sweets Boutique.</a><br />

Here are some of the types of places our on-campus Winterim groups have been over the last two weeks:<br />

Yoga centers<br />
Health and wellness centers and shops<br />

<br />
<br />
Although your social media authors often visited the on-campus projects right here at LA, we decided to take two road trips, both of which were in NH - Rindge and Richmond.<br />

For a reporter, visiting and researching the topic or group you need to write about is the best way to create a story. We appreciate all the on-campus groups allowing us to quietly "interrupt" their process to take photos or just sit and listen for a while so we could learn what they were working on. The off-campus or travel groups have also been great with sending in information or posting to their own blogs.<br />

Copper Sulfate (a blue crystal like chemical) was added to the pit after the saw dust was dumped in. The prepared pieces were systematically placed with the heaviest on the bottom to lightest in the upper layer. While the ceramic creations baked the students made pizza in the home made pizza oven.</span></span><br />

The full title for the Yoga Winterim is "Yoga Beyond the Mat." The "Beyond the Mat" part takes various forms. They have had speakers come to them here at LA to talk about nutrition and meditation, they have taken field trips off campus and attended various workshops off campus. <br />
<br />
For example, yesterday the Yoga group went to <a href="http://www.grotondentalwellness.com/" target="_blank">Groton Wellness</a> and participated in a three-hour cooking workshop. They learned to cook with fresh and organic foods. On another day earlier this week, they also learned about shopping for organic foods at the nearby <a href="http://www.thenaturalmarket.com/" target="_blank">Groton Natural Market</a>.<br />
<br />
Today, Thursday, the group traveled to Hollis, NH where they learned a different form of yoga called Kundalini. This afternoon they did Ashtanga Yoga and tomorrow they will visit<a href="http://www.thedurgastudio.com/" target="_blank"> Durga Yoga Studio</a> in Harvard, MA to learn <a href="http://shivarea.com/about-prana-flow" target="_blank">Prana Flow</a>, a form of yoga centered around the universal rhythms of life. Two other forms they have learned over these two weeks are Baptiste Yoga and Hath/Vinyasa Yoga.<br />
<br />
The students in Yoga have definitely gone "beyond the mat" these two weeks.<br />

Fifteen people embarked on an ice breaking mission in a large warrior canoe. The area around the dock was fairly clear. We attempted to go beyond by rowing swiftly, picking up speed and ramming the iced surface. Check out the <a href="http://youtu.be/oVa4Mk8giTk" target="_blank">raw video of these attempts</a> on the<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/lawinterim" target="_blank"> LA Winterim YouTube Channel</a>. <br />

This Winterim group has bonded over the last week and half. As visitors to this group we could feel their camaraderie as they followed rowing commands from the YMCA staff member, Buddy. After forging through the ice and cold pond water, the group was going on a hike. With two more days left, this group continues to enjoy their time together.<br />

Today we finally were able to test our underwater vehicles. We evaluated their maneuvering capabilities in the pool and nearly all designs worked as originally planned, although some tweaking may need to happen. Next, we will be mounting sensors for temperature and depth of the water on our vehicles. </div>

The first is <a href="http://www.lasercraze.us/" target="_blank">LazerCraze</a> an arcade type deal that also has an indoor arena for laser tag, located in North Andover. The second place students are going is <a href="http://www.skyzone.com/Boston" target="_blank">SkyZone</a> in Boston, an indoor trampoline park. The final location is a rock climbing facility called <a href="http://www.bostonrockgym.com/" target="_blank">The Boston Rock Gym</a>. These are all promising endeavors of entertainment and should be fun.<br />

Yesterday (Monday) there was indoor soccer, archery, a Zumba class, and a rigorous workout called the Poulinator. Tomorrow night (Wednesday) there is a <a href="http://www.nba.com/celtics/" target="_blank">Celtics</a> game, another Poulinator, and a <a href="http://www.sharksahl.com/index.asp" target="_blank">Worcester Ice Sharks</a> game.

Beyond Monopoly has split into two groups and is using creativity to design and build an original strategy game. Each has come up with some basic concept of a game and they are working to create the game board/pieces and flush out the details of how to play (and win) the game. Neither group has a name for their game yet, but one group has a clear "one-liner" to explain what it will be: A futuristic territorial acquisition game played on a modular board where players need to explore unknown planets and establish a new civilization on one of them. <br />

The Chess group is also involved with strategy gaming but of another sort, which also requires creative thinking. There is a game board and pieces and the game requires you to "think ahead" and plan for various moves your opponent might make. At first chess may not appear to be "creative" thinking but since a person needs to recognize several alternatives or possibilities at one time, it is in fact a highly "creative" game. Actually, playing chess will help you to develop this type of flexible thinking. (Today, Tuesday, the group is having a tournament.)<br />

Just down the hall from Chess is the Watermedia Painting group. They went off campus this afternoon to visit <a href="http://www.sharonwooding.com/fineart/home.html" target="_blank">Sharon Wooding's studio</a> and an art gallery. It was a perfect time to capture some finish products and those in process on camera. Here we see creativity in a specific art form.<br />

The sailing Winterim is pressing on, they are experiencing the wonders of sailing on the Caribbean. They are doing everything from cooking their own meals to body surfing. The area they are in is beautiful, the weather is perfect. Read the<a href="http://www.gobroadreach.com/summer-trip-updates-entry.asp?trip=2013LA11" target="_blank"> blog</a> written directly by the students from their sailing vessel. (The 4th tab above will also take you to their blog; it is updated regularly.)<br />

Monday consisted of painting a pre-school room and playing with the kids. Check

They are allegedly taking better photos than one of their Winterim Leaders. They came together and celebrated a student's birthday, and they got to see a castle, which is currently a 5-star hotel.<br />

Besides skiing and snowboarding the students in this group are assigned to different areas of the mountain business to work - ski school, grooming, snow-making, business office and etc. They will learn the inner workings of how a ski mountain functions from day to day by spending time working closely with the professionals through their Wachusett Shadowing Program. They were assigned to customer service, terrain park maintenance and the cafeteria. They also helped with rentals
and helped in the waxing and repair shop. Today, (Tuesday) due to the weather we
are going to <a href="http://www.polarbev.com/" target="_blank">Polar</a> in Worcester for a tour. Polar is run by the Crowley Family, who also owns Wachusett Mountain.<br />
