Last Day of Official Volunteership

Today is our last day of volunteership and it is bittersweet. I am glad to have the semester end and move onto the last part of my senior year but I am sad my time in volunteership will end.  Although I will continue to work at U-TOUCH, I am going to miss my organized time at the organization.  Working this semester was much different than my work over the summer.  While I was in Uganda, I would go into the center everyday and speak with my mentor Deb and other interns about the work I would be doing.  Because I am in school while working with U-TOUCH, I wasn't exactly sure how to make the transition from being full time in the office to working completly on my own.  I am sure I could have kept better contact with my mentor and sent in my completed work as soon as I completed it; however, I am veyr proud of everything I have created/done and believe that my products can help the organization and hope to send a complete package tonight. My work here at U-TOUCH had been amazing and as cliche as it may be, it changed my life and opened my eyes to new perspectives and new friends.  I am not done working with U-TOUCH at all and look forward to my interaction with the organization to help my out look on life and better the lives of others in Uganda.
