So there is a lot I need to go through so I am going type out a quick list
1. You are allowed to go barefoot any where, including the mall. It is quite common
2. We are going to a Rugby game!! Springbok vs. Italy!
3. Went running today. Yeah we are in a higher altitiude
4. I keep trying to adapt the accent here, I know I am such a wanna-be but....
5. Most people think I am South African and they would say that I am Coloured, therefore I do not want to let any one down with my American accent!
5. I lack all sense of rhythm! There have been two days that I have been able to watch young African kids dance and I am ashamed to ever try to move my body to any type of music any more!
6. I went to McDonalds yesterday and to a HUGE mall today. I have mixed feeling about it to be honest.
7. Here are the people who I will be working with, just so you know the names!
Kirsty-She's been here 6 weeks and she is from England. We call her "Mother Hen" because she takes care of us.
Anna- Sophomore from NC. She is funny and extremely blunt! She's been here 1 week.
Jeff- Sr. from TN. He has been here for a week and he is the awkward man of the house.
Samantha, Amy, Margret, and Dyson who got here today so there is not a lot to report, yet!
What am I thinking at this time? Well I feel really comfortable here! It is quite cold here but the sun shines a lot and the ocean to the South and mountains to the north make up for that. The food is great and the people are so much fun! I wish I could speak the language and I really would like to walk around the city and get a better feel for it, but because of the unrest I am not allowed to. In fact the American's are hesitant to let me walk alone any where, a little frustrating, but I don't know everything I must remember that! By the way I get to work at the refugee camps this next week. Yesterday I realized that I was really in Africa and I could be a part of what is going on. Well this is long enough but I will keep all of you posted!!
