Habari ya jioni. How's it going?

Last few days have been quiet but some of the best since I've been here. Monday was a good day at project...apart from the teacher being ill so I had to teach the class!!

Had no idea what to do so drew a man on the board and labeled all the body parts in English and got them to copy. I then pointed at parts of me asking them what it was. It was just something to pass the time until break but went fairly well.

Then just slapped a DVD on for them to watch.

Monday night I met Catherine so she could move her stuff into our house before she went to Zanzibar and I went to the cinema with her and 2 others from house 1 I didn't really know. Ruthanne and Polly. They turned out to be really nice, but the film was 3 hours long and even had an intermission...it was really bad aswell.

It was really racist towards English people aswell. One statement about English people caused me to shout 'f*** off' a bit too loudly.

It was 12:30am when we left the cinema so we waited outside for a taxi cos there was no chance of a matatu from Nyali at that time. Ended up in a car which wasn't a taxi!!! Just a random guy. Who took us to Mombasa town for free because it was on his way. Really stupid thing to do...but hey, I'm, alive.

Tuesday was a decent day at project. Catherine has gone to Zanzibar and Jenny was sick so I was the only volunteer. Spent morning in the kitchen chopping stuff (badly) and then the afternoon with the kids. There was no water, and no afternoon teacher this time so they watched home alone. They have spare bunk beds in the classroom and I fell asleep on one after my late night...I woke up with Terrance on my back, Peter asleep at the side of me and Marcy sat with us aswell!

Tuesday night I went down to house 1 to hang out with Polly, Ruthanne and the rest and I was supposed to meet Chuck, Ed, Rach and Becky at Club Rio about half ten to watch Man U play Sporting Lisbon. But ended up sat on the balcony of House 1 talking with Polly till past midnight. Then wandered upto Rio just intime to see Ronaldo's winner.

Today was a quiet day at the orphange apart from having no water and William, the caretaker, being down a 60ft well in the back garden. it's crazily deep!

Off to the Castle for a few drinks tonight and might go watch Liverpool. So a quiet boring few days really.

Send me an email or something. Let me know how things are going. And please stop sending me facebook messages...it takes so long to load up...

Kwa heri.
