Its been over a month now that I've been with my host family!

Alright I have a picture of me in my uniform for you! I tries to pick one where you could see my whole uniform but the girls in my class got a little picture happy so most of the pictures have like 15 to 20 people in them and my uniform is not so easy to see.

At church every week I dance! People are always dancing in their seats but there is one time where you can go up front and dance in a circle. First the little girls go, then little boys, then ladies, and finally men. Its a whole lot of fun. The leader dances and everyone else does the same moves. Ill get a picture of me dancing soon!

Every weekend My school (OLA) has a thing called entertainment. They have groups from the school preform and everyone dances. The boarding school kids get really excited about it every week and even some of the day students go. Well last weekend was gospel rock themed and a group of girls from my class decided to perform. I said "Why not?" and also decided to. We rehearsed throughout the week. And by Saturday the girls were so excited.






Also on Saturday was a visiting day at OLA so my family visited Esther at the boarding house. Twice a month they have visiting days. So I stayed with Ester until entertainment at night. Seeing all the ladies in their dorms so different from when they are at school. I got to eat with them and go to chapel with them. I'm really glad i got to experience it a bit. I think one weekend I'm going to spend the night! Anyway this next picture is of us preforming for the school. We are on a little stage thing in front of over 1000 people. All through the day on campus people would come up to me and say " I heard you're preforming tonight!" AHHHH! That made me nervous. I had a blast though.

 On wednesday I went to the falls in Wli! An AFS group was going and they asked if I wanted to tag along! I'm like "YES!!!" It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. I felt like I won a Survivor reward challenge or something. It was so tall and we got to swim under it! Around the top were tons of bats. I took a bajillion pictures!

More updates:

I started cooking more in the home! They usually don't like me to do too much work, but now I started to cook and wash dishes. The picture to the side is of me making Banku. Which actually requires a great deal of arm muscle. I have no arm muscle. Below is a picture of the kitchen. Standing to the left of me is Mama. She was so proud of me for chopping carrots and green beans!

I no longer am eating fish. I actually don't how much fish I was eating before but I know Florance was slipping a little in my pot. If I saw it I couldn't eat it, but I'm sure I ate some I didn't know about. The thought of this made me feel dirty so I decided no more fish. Not even a bit slipped in.






Florance said I should post this picture of my bed instead of the last one because my sheet were messed up on the last one haha. Anyway I share a room with Florance so this is me and her beds.

Oh and one more thing! I hadn't been exercising which has been making me super antsy. And the food we eat here isa starchy makes me feel really full so I started working out a little in my room. So I don't come back obolo (fat)!

Alright Its 9:30 and I want to be home by 10:00 so I'm leaving you. I hope you like the pictures!
