so its been a while here ............. so far all we have been doing really is the orientation which is a week long , we r learning swahili by taking classes every morning and being tested on them , also lots of hands on work like going down to the street and talkin to people about what we have learnt , which btw haha sucks ..... a lady was pregnant and am like oh congratz u r having a child , but for some weird reason she freaked out and started saying a whole bunch of stuff ......... turns out i said oh ur having 5 children hahaha ......... so u can imagine , and everytime i have talked to someone haha they have laughed at me and said NO u say this lol , i feel like a retard or jus challenged lol and clearly languages are not my greatest strength. its really hard to live here and not buy anything haha its like temptin as hell , especailly that everything is sooo cheap , the accessories here and shoes OMG are amazing and beautiful , u jus wana buy the entire store if u can haha . also the fruit they have here is amazing , they have the best bananas which are the tiny ones and the red ones sooo good , and they have amazing passion fruit in two colours yellow which is huge and juicy and green is a little more sweet but everything just tastes soo good and all organic, also their fruit is double the size we have so its healthier. if i really can i would bring back passion fruit with me haha am definatly going to try. lets see haha here people are soooo friendly , and amazing , and i been lol giving kids candy all this time here and their parents do not mind. the little babies or kids are adorable lol u just want to put them in ur bag and run , soo cute , i might have to sneak one in my bag soon haha ........ the trust is everywhere , everyone trust everyone and its like one big family. they all love us the foreigners and ofcourse love our money more haha , they think we r made of gold but really we all r in debt to make it here haha ......... today i will be going finally to see the placement am going to work out am very very very excited and going to take lots of pictures, but i cant upload anything because internet is crap here haha ........... oh ya they have a movie theatre which was nice here haha and a small karoake place too , which btw we sucked at cuz theyhave amazing voices ,,,,,, so if u go down to africa and decide to karoake make sure u have a nice voice haha ................... c ya next time , lots of love from tanzania
