OMG OMG OMG I'm so excited!
Like I mentioned earlier, I'm the tutor of a young African kid and today I'm sending him my first letter.
Nothing too long or complicated, of course. Just a postcard of Cristiano Ronaldo (kids his age usually like soccer and hopefully, he'll know who Ronaldo is) and a brief introduction. I already bought the postcard.
I can't send him any Christmas presents for logistic reasons but maybe that's a good thing.
The bank account is still a problem, though.
I want to open a bank account in the kid's name but I'm very cautious by nature and I don't want to create any problems. Money isn't always a good thing. I don't know his relatives, what if his parents try to steal the money? And what if his brothers get jealous?
I was thinking of opening the bank account without him knowing and tell him about it only when he turns 18. I'm not sure if that's possible.
I phoned the NGO that promotes this but they weren't very helpful. They said it was possible but I'm afraid some sh** head might tell him something.
OMG OMG OMG OMG I'm going to the post office first thing in the morning!
