ok so for those of you who thought i was a hippie. im not. heres the deal. i cant dealwith the hole in the ground situation. its just not ok for me. i dont know how im going to manage three months of this. so far the acccomodation i have stayed at has had a regular toilet option but i am defintiely getting worried. secondly, i am so covered in mosquito and bull ant bites its not normal. raaa. so i bought this ointment to apply to the itchy bites, and it says on the box 'keep in a cool place'. well id like to know where this cool place is. it simply does not exist. im not complaining. especially when i think about the freezing melbourne winter to which i would otherwise be subjected, but im just saying its really stinking hot here. i want to acclimatize asap because i am sick of being lethargic and i am really going into lazy mode. its not good cos i do nothing all day everyday and there is stuff to see and do but the heat means that i dont want to peddle so i cant rent a bicycle. the other option isa motorbike or a moped but im not that game. so much for "biggest loser india" i have actually put on weight here and lost all my tan because i am not in the sun at all. this is all very unfortunate. you gotta lose some to win some. sometimes. sometimes everybody hurts. ha. ok so today i ate amazing food, meditated, read, talked to some amazing people about their lives, played with some cute kids, ate more, did some washing and that is all. i am trying to limit myself to four showers per day. but it's tough. tomorrow i might go into town and try fight with vodafone and run some errands or whatev. or i might not. i have found yoga but its a six km walk and the class finishes as it gets dark and im scared to walk by myself at night because sometimes dogs chase you. they are cute in the daytimebut they turn savage at night. also i have witnessed many dog orgies. i am yet to pet one of the cows that walk around because im a bit timid. come on, they are pretty big. imagine getting stepped on by a cow. i guess they are reasonably slow and what not but what if i stack it.
yesterday i woke up and one of my thongs was missing. one of the random dogs stole it. i was pretty devo because they are amazing hadnmade sandals from israel. but the 5 and a half year old, my friend maneesh found it for me. he is a little champ. so cute. wish i had a camera to take some pics to post up. im in a sticky one because the dodgy camera i bought in thailand doesnt have a charger with it so i need to try to find one to match which is difficult given that most electorincs i buy here dont actually work.
well this sounds liek a complaining tone. i just reread waht ive written and i am not happy with it because it in no way reflects my actual attitude. i am unbelievably grateful = for everything. having a blast. tonight maybe going to go and lie at the beach with a friend and watch the stars. i bought a drum and im getting lessons from a man called imran who owns a little music store. its pretty fun. i want a guitar, i have time to get good. but then ill hvae to lug it around. thats the last thing i need, another item to keep track of.
missing you x
xxxxxxx
i am looking for suggestions for what i should do to celebrate my birthday so hit me up..
