Tanzanians LOVE this phrase.... How are you feeling? fifty fifty. How was town? fifty fifty. This week I am "fifty fifty." Things have picked up a bit from last week. Yesterday was Bev's birthday so we celebrated by going to a hotel in town! For 3000 shillings (about$2.50) you can go and swim in the pool! We took Bebe with us (who doesn't know how to swim) and apart from one tiny near drowning--mine AND Bebe's--we had a GREAT time! It was a real blessing for me as school this week was a little tough. I'm getting a LOT of blank stares these days and I'm having to go back and re-teach things from three and four weeks ago. It's really frustrating at times. I just want them to understand and I don't know how to make it stick!
As usual, here I am in the internet cafe utterly unable to recall all the funny and interesting things that have happened to me this week so I think I'll wrap this one up... this week I'll have to write something everyday so that I'll have good stuff for next time...
