it's wednesday. blah. the middle of the week. tonight though is "ladies night" at our little new neighborhood lounge for "decent" people. they have zebra printed seats. we're going to check it out. and in other academic news, i also have to interview a man from heifer international for our qualitative data collection class and we are playing phone tag. yesterday kayla and i wandered the streets aimlessly, looking for it in a nearby neighborhood. the big, wooden, painted signs that said "heifer international" were beautifully stacked inside the gate, which we saw once we had gotten inside. helpful.
but we did get to practice our swahili.
i learned some things so far today:
2. that south sudan is very
hungry3. a
"yori yori" is a casual lover. a "friendly match" also means the same thing, according to our kenyan friend anyhow
4. i updated my ipod weather thingy and it's 79 degrees in eldoret right now. and 27 degrees in boston. sorry.
5. botswana has one of the fastest growing economies in the world, with an average growth rate of 7.7%
6. the
inga dam in congo will be the largest in the world. good for africa? or its white elephant?
