Happy Birthday Mom

well, happy birthday mom. i hope you have a great day.

things are going well here in morocco. the end of our training period as we now know it is coming to a close - just 9 more days before we find out or final placement sites and go for a site visit. after that we'll have classes and stuff for a while until we swear in and become Peace Corps Volunteers! weeee! its crazy to think is coming so soon. and its even more crazy to think i can hardly put a sentance together in moroccan arabic! ha ha.

my tummy has been acting funny lately. yesterday i laid in bed and didnt eat anything for 24 hours. now im eating but my tummy doesnt seem so sure about it. sometimes it feels like something is swimming around in my stomache. oh well, it will pass - hopefully.

there is a american-like grocery store here called marjane. i really want to go but is a few towns away and cant go - per peace corps rules - unless i go with someone in my family. anyway, we talke about going to marjane all the time and this weekend two girls from my training group went with their families. one of the girls, candace, even brought me some candy from the marjane! now im totally jealous. oh well, im sure ill get a chance to go sooner or later.

anyway, i really should get going since i need to run home and get some laundry done. over the weekend i made up some flash cards and they real helped me allot.
