I can't write very much today as it's getting late and we're going to a braai tonight with some friends, but I just wanted to do a quick update so you all know I'm still alive! I won't have time to do any pics today either, though I have the BEST ones from the last couple of weeks, I'll try to get them on tomorrow, or if not as soon as I can. Before anything else I just want to tell you about a funny conversation. There's a crazy lady who helped set up the Fancy Stitch business, she's a bit [View Full Entry]

Hey hey hey, I'm still alive! It's been so long since I last did my blog that I've forgotten everything that's happened, I'm using my travel journal to remind me but things might be a bit mixed up as things pop up in my head that I want to tell you! Sorry (HAN) but I doubt it will be very organised. One big update is that I'm no longer doing the library. The principal has told me not to as it's his job and I shouldnt have to do it for him, but Im in two minds about it because it [View Full Entry]

Our Beautiful Baking :)
My New Hairdressers!
My Babies

Hello one and all! This can only be a short post as I don't have long on the net - but I thought I'd just let you all know that I am alive and well :) School has been tough the last few weeks - teachers have been sent off to workshops so we have had full days teaching every day, covering their classes. I seriously don't know what the school would do if it didn't have GAPs! I love the older grades - ten, eleven and twelve, even though the boys come onto us ALL the time they are actually [View Full Entry]

Hey again Team England! How are we all? Ignore the top bit if it's saying I'm somewhere random in Kwazulu-Natal, I'm in Ingwavuma and it doesn't show up on this stupid blog. It's up near the Mozambique and Swaziland borders if you want to find it on a map! I'm trying to upload some pictures to my last post as well as this one so check that out - though I may not get them all done as internet connections here are SO slow. So... Driving up here on Thursday was amazing. I was expecting it to be really boring as [View Full Entry]

Mosquito Net
Our lovely clean room...
Our Mess

Hey Team England! Hows it going over there? Contrary to popular belief I am not dead, I just havn't been in touch with many people yet a) because my phone didn't work until I got my African Sim; Vodacom (haha) on Monday evening, and b) because the internet is always being used! They only have two computers here and it's a pretty big hostel, I'm now gonna hog this one until dinner. (And pay 30 rands for the privelidge!) So I'll start from the beginning and get you all caught up. Goodbyes were REALLY hard at the airport - leaving Mum [View Full Entry]

The View From The Ritz
A Prison Cell
GHANDI'S SANDALS!!

Hello again! Still in England I'm afraid - but exciting news: I GOT MY PASSPORT BACK THIS MORNING!!!!!! HOORAH!!!!! This means I will actually be flying on Sunday...as long as nothing else goes wrong! We also booked the coach that's gonna take me directly to Heathrow Terminal 5 (I was pretty torn between trains or a coach, but as neither me or Mum are particularly good at directions the door-to-door seemed like a better option). The only depressing thing is I don't fly until about 8pm but I will have to leave my house at like 11. I've just finished applying [View Full Entry]

Hello everyone! It's one week and four days until I set off and I am officially terrified! Excited too obviously, but I just don't feel ready at all - I'm still fundraising and havn't even started packing yet! But the injections are over (finally, after six panic attacks and god knows how many of my scitzophrenic tablets) as of yesterday, and now there's nothing stopping me! (Except perhaps the fact that the South African embassy people still have my passport and my visa...it's gonna take a lot of polite phonecalls methinks). Anyway, this is only a short post so I can [View Full Entry]
