Michelle Engelsman There would be nothing to fear if you refused to be afraid. -Gandhi Updated: November 22, 2009: It's been a little while since I've written, but things have been quite busy! In September I started a new job as general election campaign coordinator for the Green Party in Cambridge. It's been very exciting, sometimes quite challenging, and certainly a fun experience. It's a very exciting time to be involved with the Green Party here in Cambridge, as we are in a very strong position to win! Taking on this new role meant departing from Red Balloon – a charity I thoroughly enjoyed working for. We still maintain ties, and I've been in to play sport with the students (and hope to again soon!) After eight months here in Cambridge I am feeling much more settled, have a fun network of friends, and am thoroughly enjoying playing soccer. I scored my first goal the other week (bearing in mind I play defence so I don't tend to get many chances!) I am still working with BODHI, though unfortunately haven't had much time to commit to the projects in recent months. I am looking forward to getting back into campaigning for Mitini Nepal and on the Chittagong Hill Tracts campaign – as they are both campaigns I believe strongly in. Best wishes, and I'll try not to leave it so long between posts in future.
PS. I'm excited to say that my 30th is only a few weeks away now! "If you limit your choices only to what seems reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise" "yes we can". -Obama Believe in your dreams. Make them a reality! _____________________________
