In November, the World Love Organization Club met on Thursday in Dave Rinehart’s room, 331, to write letters to kids in Swaziland. They had a selection to write to Sinethemba, a 9-year old girl, or Lungelo, a 13-year old boy. Sinethemba is a shy girl who loves to play basketball and wishes to become a nurse when she grows up. Her favorite school subject is English. Lungelo enjoys playing soccer, hoping to be an international player, and also would like to be lawyer when he grows up. His favorite school subject is also English.
Here are the some of the responses for why members chose their kid:
“I chose [Sinethemba] because I could relate to her more, since I’m also a girl.” –Secretary Brenna Roberts
“I felt I could connect with [Lungelo], since we both love English literature.” –Treasurer Katie Gilliam.
“I can relate more to girls because I have three sisters and no brothers.” - Vice President Emma Place, who chose Sinethemba.
“I chose [Lungelo] because he likes the same subjects as I do and he seems interesting to get to know.”- Member Amanda Saari
“I chose [Sinethemba] since she wanted to be a nurse when she grows up, which I can relate to since my dad is also a doctor.” – Member Amanda Milliken
Though the club has a mere nine members, Lungelo and Sinethemba will get lots of love sealed in envelopes. In a few weeks, the members will receive responses from their kids. This is a pen pal relationship starting to blossom.
Miranda you are like a parrot , you repeat what you are told without checking the facts ! In an Australian newspaper September 26 1988 ( The Canberra Times) it was quoted that the Maldives would be submerged under water due to the effects of global warming ie melting ice ...thats 30years ago ..what the hell happened ?? The Maldives are still above water and now YOU are saying in 2015 the Maldives will be under water in 30 years ?! Do you not research this stuff ar all ? Clearly the science is not settled , I know you will be around in thirty years time what will you do and say when nothing happened and everyone is still holidaying on the Maldives. Regards Grant
