Hey guys guess what?
Tzaneen is now a malarial zone, it is going to be lovely having to take those bloody pills again...wahoo I love being crampy and ill! One of our house girls; Maggie came down with it at the end of last week but is close to a full recovery now. =)
I still haven't located a half decent photo of hoover, the only one I have in my personal collection is blurry. I am keeping extra special tabs on my juniors now because I don't want to loose another. I have been experimenting to see just how high ranked I am though, I took away Carla's marula fruit today which got me a nice nip on the shoulder but she did let me have it, I finished peeling it and gave it back to her and she happily ate it on my lap while she attempted to clean me with sticky fingers.
I threw a nice suprise party on Saturday for Ryan and Angi where I practised my macguyver (sp) style cooking and made tacos and nachos from obscure ingredients, it was a success though and everyone was incredibly greatful.
Yesterday I was invited to dinner at Katie's house (the other house girl) and she made chicken and mielly pop (a white semi-solid goo made of water and cornflour) it was really funny because she was very concerned about the fact that they don't have cutlery and when she told me I nearly fell over laughing trying to explain that mom and duff did everything in their power to make me STOP eating with my fingers. She thought that was funny too, I brought some wine and ate the food while they tried to teach me Shaangan (sp) their language. I showed them that I could dance to their music, they were so amazed but i giggled hard because its incredibly similar to how girls dance in clubs at home mixed in with a lil drum n bass moves. Katie is going to make a list of things to say so we can chat, this morning I asked how she was in Shaangan and she was so happy that she started dancing, shes really cool.
For those of you who I've talked to, yes I have been incredibly homesick but I have had a long talk with Zorro and the juniors and we have decided that I just need a bath and a comfy bed to sleep in for a night or two and then I will feel a lot better.
Thanks for all your support,
love boo
