Today, I'm starting my CAS for the IB program in international school of Kenya. This is my third year in ISK and I've been doing some CAS before, but not really to this extent. Even more important is that I have not blogged before, so it is a challenge. I have a pretty good idea about what I'm going to be involved in and I've been planning it all summer.
For Action I'm going to try out for the Junior Varsity Football team. I love football, and even if I haven't played a lot I always watch it on TV. I'm a die hard Chelsea fan and always try to watch their games.
For the time when there is no football, I'm going to try Taekwondo. It's easy for me, because my sister and my mom has a trainer coming over two times a week. It looks quite hard, but they tell me it's going to help out with my football game.
For service I'm going to help raise money for Excellent Care Center and School in the Mathare slums. This is a project my moms friend was a bit involved in, and when she moved back to Sweden she suggested that I should "take over". I hope I can do well! I always love visiting the school and I've been there a few times already. MUN (Model United Nations) has always sounded very interesting and this is another thing I'm willing to try.
I'm also going to help the Swedish Society with the events they perform to gather the Swedish community in Kenya and to raise money for development projects in Kenya.
For creativity I'm making photo books for the babies in the orphanage the "Nest". I know a few friends that are adopted from other countries and they are curious of where they came from. I'm thinking that when these kids are adopted, I'll give the books with photos from when they were babies, so they can look at them growing up.
These are my plans for now, and hopefully it is going to be enough for this year.
Enjoy reading my blog!
