This is something new to me. Ellen was my secretary in writing this post, because I’m learning how to blog. I hope to write about my cat, my work with Emerge, my life in Sri Lanka, and anything else that comes to mind.
I want to start with a story. Today a new shipment of beads came in, and Sheena is now doing the job that I used to do: taking the beads off their strings. As she was pulling off a string of white beads, they fell on the ground. That reminded me of how Fudge, my cat, would play around with the beads when the same thing happened to me. To give you an idea of who I am and what I’m like, I asked Sheena, Aaron, and Ellen to say a couple things about me.
Sheena thinks I’m the calmest person she’s ever met. Aaron says I am calm like a Mama Bear. I think Aaron is shy and sweet. Ellen thinks that I am a rockstar and the best thing that ever happened to Emerge in Sri Lanka. Sheena seconds that statement.
We’re having lots of fun here in the Emerge apartment. Soon we’ll have lunch together. I’m looking forward to blogging and building up Emerge. It started so small – Alia and I at the beginning. Alia has been a great strength and inspiration to me. Now, the goal is for Emerge to keep getting stronger, and I want to be a part of it.
Much love, Nirukshi
