Like A Virgin

this week has gone by really fast. i cant believe is saturday already. we did the major part of the activity that everyone has been planning for the past month. we went to two different schools and cleaned up the grounds and taught about preserving the environment. the kids were pretty cool and fun to be around - so eager to help and learn.

my cousin was at one of the schools so it was cool to see him. he kept smiling at me and wanting me to come by his desk to show me his drawing. he is a good little kid.

I still have not gone to the hemmam - public bath house - but i have gone to the public showers. the showers i went to were nicer than i expected and, sadly, the water didnt get very hot until I was about to turn the water off. so i decided to brush my teeth in the shower so i could enjoy the hot water. I think ill go back on monday. lets hope the water is hot the whole time.

we have a lady from the community that cooks lunch for us every day we have class. we buy the groceries and she cooks for us (we pay her to do it). anyway, earlier in the week we asked her to make stir fry. it was pretty good considering she had never heard of the stuff. today we had her make french toast. it turned out waaaay better than i would have imagined. it was good.

all the trainees in the group and our teacher have put in allot of hard work this week. we're ready for a break. sunday is our only day 'off' although we usually end up having some sort of meeting for something but it seems like tomorrow might actually be completely off. that will be nice.

i have a funny pictgure i want to post but dont have the wire to connect my camera to the computer so it will have to wait... but look forward to it soon.
