WAIT

I am back at Tubaniso. This past week went by so fast! All the days run together. I had my language test yesterday. We have to be intermediate mid before we start our service. I am at....novice med (I started off novice low...one little step). Basically, I have to go through 3 steps in like 4 weeks. Sigh. I have to get tutored when I get to my site.
Anyway, nothing of real interest happened this week. The mosquitoes are biting the heck out of me. My hand looks terrible. I now wonder if the bites on my hand are bed bugs or mosquito bites? And then the flies also land on them. I didn't realize how much I hate flies. I really do! My big toe is infected (I had a close call last week on the bike...don't know if I have mentioned it. I was trying to avoid hitting another PCT, slammed on my breaks and threw my foot down, actually my big toe.) and I have an infected mosquito bite. Africa may leave its mark on me.
We had a session today about transportation. Africa is on WAIT. "West Africa International Time." Schedules don't really exist here. I thought it was such a funny acronym.
Oh, I got my box today:) I was super excited because I knew I had a box, and I had to wait allllll week! Whenever I saw a PC car, I would get so excited....and then disappointed. I have another box at the post office...I hope it gets here before I leave on Wednesday!
Another notable item. My mom bought a goat. He is so cute! And, apparently, dinner tomorrow. I'm glad I don't have to witness his death. He was a little annoying this morning, making goat noises.
All in all, life is great. TIA!!!
