i'm on my days off now- after the month long training, and prior to beginnning my work here- start that tomorrow- i also moved out of the catholic run place to a place downtown- the catholic place was nice with its sort of pastoral grounds, gardens, banana trees and avocado trees all around, massai warrior guards lounging around with their blankets tossed around their heads, viscious dogs patrolling at night- it all made for a certain exotic environment. my new place though includes fried potatos and beans up on a roof-top deck for breakfast along with passion juice and coffee/tea- and my little tiny room is right overlooking the main drag. theres a guy just accross the street selling cassettes so i get to hear the traditional pop blaring much of the time- i really like it! especially since my fancy mp3 player broke after a week when i tried out a battery that i bought at a street stand... no more handsome family.
