This weekend I met the girl that lives next door to me. Her name is Naemh (Nive), and she's from Ireland. We've been hanging out a bit together, and she told me where I can get 'mazungu' (white people) food and where there is a pool. I think I may go do that this weekend or maybe go get something to eat one night this weekend. Last night, we went to watch a movie with some people working with Invisible Children. We watched Everything Is Illuminated, which is one of my favorite movies, so I was quite happy.
Yesterday I went around to a bunch of the gardens (that's what they call their fields for farming) to check on some crops to see if they're ready to be transplanted. I never thought I'd be learning about farming. haha. I haven't really learned much, but it's interesting going around and seeing them. Yesterday and today are a big district wide track & field competition for all the secondary schools, so we spent the afternoon at that.

Mary my Mary-
Hello my love!I want to start by telling you much much I enjoy reading your blog, I can imagine you doing all of the thngs you talk about. It all seems so differnt and exciting...and sad at times I am sure. It really seems like you are having a good time though. Hearing the stories of your adventures makes me very eager to go abroad again to experience new and differnt things again. I'm so proud of you for doing this, I know it's somethign you have always wanted to do. It made me laugh when I saw that you wanted Everything is Illuminated the other day, I love that movie as well, the book is even better, though a bit more sad and a lot more confusing. haha. Take care of yourself sweetie.
Love you!
Manda
