Blog #3 For Today

A bunch of things currently on my mind:

1) I hate high school girls. Please, do me a favor and get out of my life. For God's sake, I'm in Namibia, this is ridiculous. I know you are jealous, but get over it. Really. I'm serious.

2) I don't understand how my feet get so dirty.

3) Showering is not a necessity, and abstaining from it is good for the environment.

4) African chubby babies named Ethan are adorable and I WILL kidnap them and bring them to New York.

5) I am posting a ridiculous amount today.

6) Marybeth is the best therapist I have ever had.

7) Sometimes I think people don't get me, but then I remember that it doesn't matter.

8) I got into college. Read previous post.

9) Some kids from St. Paul's school in Klein Windhoek are coming to the center next Wednesday and every following Wednesday to volunteer. This should be cool, because I will get to interact with kids my age who school here in Windhoek (the kids who go to St. Paul's are mostly all white, or children of lawyers, judges, government workers. It's a private, upscale school).

10) My back hurts. I've been carrying a lot of children.

11) Yes, Victoria, the peanut butter here is good. It's actually called Yum-Yum. It's really tasty. I really like peanut butter.

12) To Dad or anyone else who was wondering: The soup that the kids get varies daily. Sometimes its vegetable glop, sometimes its noodle glop. Either it's delicious, or the kids are so hungry they just can't eat fast enough. Usually they get bread with it, just little rolls usually, to scoop up the soup with, because while they have bowls, there are no utensils. It looks gross to me, but then again I've never tasted it.

13) I miss the cold weather.

14) NICE restauraunt, across the street, is actually named NICE for Namibia Institute for Culinary Education. I thought they just named it NICE because it is nice. Haha.

15) Mom, Marybeth gave me that hug you told her to give me :)

16) HUGE BUG JUST JUMPED ACROSS THE ROOM WITH A CRUNCHY NOISE. WOW.

17) I miss YOU. (Unless of course you pertain to number one at the top of the page, and if you do, stop reading my blog.)

18) I'm sorry if you are an innocent bystander and don't understand what I am complaining about. And I'm sorry if my Africa blog has turned into teenage-complaints. I swear this will be the last post with stupid references and ranting lists.

Katrina, sorry to have missed you on aim yesterday. Glad you got the good news. Remember, Albany is the only school with a minor in public health, so never say never! Quite a list you have there. I can't imagine feet dirtier than in Nicaragua, but I don't think I need any details. I won't even comment on #1 from your list-- Follow you heart, know you are blessed, and know that your capacity to help, your drive to meet your goals, and your passion for your work is all that matters.
Ronan is outside. He is crying and wants to come in. I guess i need to go. I am enjoying the Christmas tree one last time. Tomorrow Aunt Jackie will help me take it down.
Gev is very lonesome for you. Don't forget to contact Rob. Give MB a hug. I hope I get to meet her one day, in Namibia of course!
