Going to school...

Ritha has been going to school all year to become a teacher of the Protestant religion. Kind of a funny title, but she's going to a government school and according to the government there are only five religions. We have an older desktop computer in our office that Ritha can use whenever she needs to prepare her assignments and use the internet and print things. So she does. She has been getting some very good marks on her assignments and the teachers are making her prove where she got her info etc... So annoying for her! As if she isn't busy enough already! The problem that most of the other students run into is that they have to use internet cafe's to surf then net and type things up and there are times where there is no internet or there is no power. Like the other night. The power went off. Here they say "lampu (lights) mati (dead)". But Ritha was at our house so first she used our laptop and then when it got dark we put on the generator and she could keep going and print upon completion. She had only received the assignment that day and it was due the next day. Not sure how her classmates were supposed to complete their assignments....
