Week 1 Down

Well, it's starting to sink in that we're here for 2 full years, and only we've only been here for 1 week. I've had some interesting experiences in this first week:

  • Bucket showers -- I need to get better at these. But cold bucket showers feel so nice :)
  • Pit Latrine
  • Scorpion in my room
  • Sweating my butt off all the time
  • LOTS of class
  • relearning multiplication and division work on the board
  • frozen yogurt!!
  • Learning how to filter water
  • Getting braids!
