Hello all. Thanks for all the messages, I left little responses on them.
Here as I promised a few excepts from my journal. KR.... sorry I can not read them aloud. Oh, and remember how addicted I was to matatoos ..... I am even more qddicted to zems.
Okay, journal entries. And I am still working on photos, no luck just yet.

Dad pulled up to the airport and simply gave me a kiss on the cheek and drove away. He truly is such a great father and I don t think I give him enough credit for that by any stretch of the imagination.

A part of me wonders, which is better a knowledge of Africa or of the language. The jury is still out. Orientation is just another shuffling of people after another. When you have '& people it is hard, but also a safe zone.

Today had one bright spot after I alnost fell asleep today in class. Our teacher interviezs were today and mine was with the assistant program director. I told her how important it was for me to work with others and we chatted about secondqry projects. Maybe a school paper, maybe a sports team, I was just excited about the possibiliites, but also frustrated because they were just possibilities.

My family is so nice, especially my sister who seems to be in charge oif taking care of my every need. My room I think is the smallest, but I do not mind. What else? Oh, I met the lizzard again last night. Again it could be worse, lots and lots of bugs. So far, my number one fear _ the latrine and I am not even sure two years will cure that.
