But this is! Today I was thinking about the future (specifically pertaining to this blog) and decided to explore this fancy website called Blurb.com. Blurb is a site where you can design your books, and I fiddled around with it to my SNEs into a little memoir at the end of the year. Although, I have a lot of slack to catch up on first..

SNE. Today I lost a small part of my soul. I finally gave in to the culture I've been a part of for 4 months.. and threw eight grocery-bags-worth of pop bottles and plastic into our 'garbage' pile to be burned. Sorry ozone layer.
Also, I finished making two stockings for my teammates! Stockings made of bedsheets and scrap fabric.. they won't last very long.. but they sure we fun to make!

First epic African Christmas party! Can't say I've ever seen outdoor darts or basketball at a Christmas party before. Also, I played flute to accompany a guitar, jambe, and voices in caroling, lovely!

Something New Everyday. Left Uganda
today and arrived in Tanzania! Received a box of goodies from home, a
few weeks early. Certainly never done those things before!
Dec 9-17
More Tanzania adventures!
Dec 5
WOW, Some things new! Of course it was my first ever birthday in Africa, kicked off with a beautiful banner and then cupcake for breakfast! Thanks Julie Bainard. Followed with a tour around campus, visiting my own faculty and then exploring the art faculty. Browsed through pottery creations with Clare Patra, and got a mini flower vase, wow, thanks! Next was 'tattoo' time... got thoroughly doodled on by all my Ugandan pals, AAND nicely concluded with an awesome music jam night with Ejuku Mark and Bimisayo Adeyi where I saw an owl and got serenaded from the stage! It's also the longest birthday I've ever had.. starting with yesterday with Indonesian wall posts, lasting a full day in Africa, and continuing for another 9 hours in Canada still!
Thanks everyone for the birthday greetings and for making this a special day!
