EW "Pretty in Pink" Fall Kickoff

  I totally swiped the following post from my friend, Kari, who lives here in Nichada and blogs about her life, family and living in Thailand...You can see her original post here at her blog Sand, Sea and Shells.

 'momoiro'(Japanese),  pink seckahl (Korean),  si chom-poo(Thailand), rose(French), rosa(Spanish).

You’re probably wondering what the words above mean. well that’s how you say the color pink in different languages.  This is what I learnt today among many other interesting things.  Like  who knew that “Alecia Moore” is actually the pop artist Pink, and that bubble gum was patented by a dentist and that the London Financial Times is printed on pink paper!!  I also realized again how lucky I am to be among woman from all walks of life and from all over the world.  totally awesome.
I met some ladies who’ve been here for only a couple of months and others who have been here for 9 years.  It’s such a diverse and colorful group of woman who have travelled many different paths and for today we all gathered for a reason - for fellowship and friendships – old and new.
I picked my study and it isn’t any of the ones I indicated yesterday.  I think after hearing from the facilitators how much homework was involved with each of the studies it  made me change my mind!!
So instead I choose Becoming A Woman of Prayer.  I’m hoping this will help me quiet my spirit.
I’m looking forward to the study.  And I’m also looking forward to making some new friends.
Don’t you just love it, even our food was pink!!
