Yes, we just name-dropped Justin Bieber

Hello friends!

Wow. Thanks for the support! Our procrastination has turned to checking and re-checking our links - numbers of group members, video views and blog views. It’s a little ridiculous and maybe bordering obsessive. I wish you all could fit in our living room and observe us get as excited with every view as teenage girls watching a Justin Bieber music video (that really is how thrilled we get about your support!) For real, thanks so much to everyone that has checked out our stuff, posted and shared links, invited friends to our group, or sent us encouraging messages and comments. We feel the love and it helps confirm for us that this project is not only real, but possible too.

A new video is coming soon! We did some filming today, so hopefully we can get it posted ASAP. Without giving too much away, let’s just say this afternoon felt awkward. I mean, it’s already kind of uncomfortable filming and watching yourself, but approaching a stranger to interview and film is just as awkward as watching the Olympic torch malfunction. Nonetheless, it was fun and I’m excited for you all to see it. We also promise more information is coming soon regarding plans for the trip. Some networking opportunities have been popping up, so we’re just trying to get that stuff worked out. We’ll let you know as soon as we do!

OH! We are participating in AdSense. If you haven’t heard of it, we are trying to make money by letting google post ads on our blog. The more views we get, the more money we make. I’m pretty sure we’ve made a penny thus far. (But hey, I’ve heard a penny stretches farther in SE Asia anyway – so every little bit helps!) We’re trying to get AdSense on YouTube too, but apparently you have to be invited to participate (and thus, we need to make YouTube notice us!) This means we need you to do one simple thing that requires you to lift literally only one finger: click to watch, re-watch, read, re-read, and share these links with all!

Thanks for the love. Until next time, let it leak and spread the word!
