New Year Thots

My third week here for the year 2005. The first week on Friday I saw another Hornbill on my way back. Two of my collegues also saw it although they were not sure it was a hornbill. Its beak was quite white and paler compared with the hornbill we usually see in the advertisments and pamplets.

During the registration for the first week, I was saddend/pitied by the condition of the students. I was asked to collect their yearly fees for primary 6. A few of them had not much money and when i asked for the money some asked to pay in installement. The parents wore no shoes to school. The pupils are at least luckier, they are provided with a full set of uniform by the government.
