I am currently in Balic Balic, a slum in Manila. Here are a few things worth listing:
9 hours slept on our flight from LA
13.5 total hours of flight
10 hour time difference between Manila and Colorado
3 stories in the house I am staying in
2 bucket showers per day is the norm for Balic Balic
100% humidity, my guess anyhow
6 SP staff in my group, 4 from Lincoln Heights team, 1 from Thailand team and me
5.5 weeks we will be in Balic Balic
$2 the cost of my dinner tonight

Thank you for your wonderful little post! It's good to hear your written voice. I miss you so much! And yes, Chow King - get it soon. It'll be your Filipino food lifesaver. We are thinking of you so much here in Pomona, missing you in little apartment. I hope that God is showing you more of his goodness and that you are strengthened by God's power to transform the slums of the world. I love you!
