Today I woke up at 5:35 am tried to brush my teeth but there was no water..tragedy. Against my better judgement I went for a run anyway...got very sweaty. Came back..no water still so I came to school this morning sweaty and gross. However, I was able to take a shower at the SIT house so all is good. Also this morning the roosters that roam around the streets were extra loud.
That started my day out pretty rough however I was given three cards today....yay mail! Thank you gma, gpa and daddy! That made my day when I was the only to get mail and three cards no less! I noticed gma's card was postmarked Jan 26 so it look a little over a week...not bad. So for future notice everyone else my address is:
Kaitlyn Hudgins
SIT Community Health
18 Alton Road
Glenmore
Durban 4000
South Africa
and my phone number is 072 934 9296...so if you want to spend a lot of money..call me! however you can call from you skype for only like twenty cents a minute
Anyway, today we went to the University of Durban Westville which was super interesting an very informative and I'm pretty much an expert now. At lunch I sat by the pool which they have outside the house and worked on my tan which is improving quite quickly. I brought salad for lunch which I made last night with my spaghetti dinner and olive garlic foccacia as well as a pbj that mama made me bring.
Tomorrow we start our weekend in Durban. Basically after class we get dropped off at these apartments that are right on the beach and we get a weekend to "blow off steam" as Zed says "as long as we keep it tidy". So that will be fun we will go to the beach everyday and were gonna do a potluck dinner..each apartment will make something different and we will have a giant supper!
Also we learned another Zulu song that they sing before sports games and what not. And yesterday we split into two groups and had to come up with a song reflecting on what we've done so far. My groups song was to the tune of In the Jungle..standard.
Hope all is well in the U.S.!

Wow, Valentine's Day came early. Didn't know how long it would take, glad it didn't take longer for the cards. I want to call you by skype but still need to understand it better. Do you have to be at your computer or am I calling your cell phone by way of skype and you will just answer? Guess that is how it works. Perhaps this weekend.
ReplyDeleteU.S. market dropped 300 pts today because of money problems in Spain. Everyone in a panic. We are very, very busy with Real Estate. Finally made a sale. Hurrah. Have a few others in the works. Need the money.
You sound fantastic, we are so proud of you.
We check the Blog every morning, hoping for news from S.A. Must run now watching Duke 2 night.
Love you, Gma
