Here I am again, this time last year I was in China recuperating from the epic Great Wall of China hike that we took on the 4th of July. I remember singing the national anthem with all of us American teachers and all of these tourists were looking at us like we were crazy. We leave for South Africa in 4 days. Jeremy and I just got back from Michigan at the cabin, we were able to watch fireworks over a lake, and they have something called the ring of fire. Around the lake, they post flares every 5 feet, so it looks like the lake is on fire. It was beautiful, I got to see my family for the last time before South Africa and had a fantastic time.
In other news, I am now applying for a program in Georgia(the country not the state), to teach English for five months, this would be in Jan. after we get back from Africa, and after the Burlesque show I'll be working on. Talk about being a busy bee!!
One thing I've learned lately is that sometimes you do better just sitting back and absorbing, I've always been a chatter box, but I've found it's quite nice to just sit back and listen, and boy can you learn alot by asking questions. Well, I think that's all for me, we're going to go buy some dummy wallets for Africa just to be safe, and start packing, trying to get ready is pretty crazy, I just hope I remember everything...probably won't, but that'll be half the fun I suppose!
God bless,
Aj
