I Am Not Dead
Text of the Week:
Me: You will never guess where I am right now…
(And they couldn’t!)
Thanks to the barrage of emails and text messages which I have received recently, I know that my fellow volunteers were not the only ones wondering where the heck I was and what I was up to. Hahaha:D Hehehehe :D I would tell you… but then I would have one less thing to giggle about.
Well, I suppose the least I can do is give you a vague recount of my whereabouts and doings. So… the last month or so… I’ve been around. Doing things. I was thinking the other day about how amusing it would be if I had my own reality TV show. But then I realized that the whole lack-of-electricity thing would really hinder a camera crew in my village. And also, if Peace Corps administration had the opportunity to witness my daily happenings (such as giggling to myself for extended periods of time), I would probably get “whack-evacked” (the endearing term we use for the volunteers who get evacuated due to “mental issues.”).
I am in Yaoundé right now, so I am kind of tired thanks to the overnight train. Although, the train made it in only 17 hours this time! Awesome. I know that this post sucks a lot, but I just wanted to let you all know that I am alive and well:] Sorry for not including a comments section in my last post. I do not even know how I managed that one. I have edited it, so that now you can go back and leave many amusing comments for my previous post:] I promise a more entertaining post tomorrow, when I am more awake! Now you have something to look forward to:] You are welcome:]
Happy Father’s Day to all of you men wondering where the children in your house came from and why they eat all of your food and money :D That means YOU, Dad:D And many others, I am sure:] Love!
