Since Monday I have:

--begun swimming with the university team [and there’s potential for travelling to Nigeria for competition. YUS.]

--done my own laundry! And I have the knuckle scrapes(?) to prove it.

--more or less signed up for classes as best I can.

--only had one of my seven classes so far because teachers are on strike.

--tried new, but not too crazy foods, like:

     --garden eggs [eggplant, but small and white/yellow. So far they’re really bitter; not yet a fan.]

     --gogbe [gari (looks and tastes a bit like cornmeal) and beans (black eyed peas)]

     --yumi [smooth, bottled, yoghurty drink kind of like a thin milkshake. So good.]
     --egg sandwiches from Auntie Marie (so good. Basically an omelet folded up and stuck in a sweet roll. You can get sausage and cheese, too!)

--NOT gotten my roommate yet. I’m so excited to meet her! Cannot even wait.

--cooked at least half of my food. This is big.

--not become a master chef. But I’ll be half way by December. Just wait and see.

--definitely made new friends.

--indulged in silent laptop time with Kendra and Sarah.

--gotten excited about shopping for fabric and then not done it. poop. But it’s definitely on the list of things to do!

--said goodbye to one of our ISEP girls! So glad you’re getting better, but we miss you, Reddddddd! <3

-- Officially been in Ghana for two weeks!!
