So much has gone on this week I can't even remember everything. I'm not at the same homestay I talked about before, I'm staying with Richard and Doris. Which is awesome, Doris is soooo sweet. She works in the bakery in town which makes the best bread I have ever had. Richard works in Nelspruit so he isn't home during the week. Pearl and Melbourne are their daughters. Pearl is in high school and kind of shy but Melbourne barely speaks english and isnt shy at all. She did my hair for me this morning, I looked quite beautiful by the time she was done. ahha, not that it mattered because I haven't showered since Tuesday. Tuesday and Saturdays are shower days and even then you can't even imagine what the word shower means here ahah. It's awesome though so the lack of cleanliness doesn't really bother me.

We killed two chickens last night for dinner. We went and bought them at this random person in the villages house and I carried one of them back to our house alive by its wings. Then, these kids from the community Forget and Arise (yes those really are their names) pulled and cut their heads off. Arise cut his with a knife and blood went everywhere and then Forget just pulled his and it like stretched out for a minute and then just pulled off. Then, we put both of them in a bowl to dump water on them so that we could pluck them and when we poured the hot water in one of them jumped out of the bowl headless! They were literally running around like chickens with their heads cut off! Regardless, the chicken was really good once it was cooked.

I'm playing soccer too! The women practice everyday at four and another intern and I have been going to practice. I've scored twice so far and managed to get one bad bruise on my knee. It's so fun though.

I'm kind of on a PB & J diet right now. We eat it everyday for lunch. Every morning for breakfast I have oatmeal. For dinner we can make stew, rice, sometimes we have chicken or baked beans. It's pretty much bland.

43 days until I come home!

I miss you all!
