My birthday was a great day. My roommate surprise got my packages arranged to be delivered to the house while I was at classes so it was a great surprise to come home to. Big shout outs to Mom, Dad, Aunt Anja and Uncle Rhom for the Christmas turned bday presents. Also to Lil Lindsay who sent me a letter from where she is teaching English in France. I was reading a letter sent from France from a college friend while I’m living in Mozambique. What has happened to my life? I am now fully equipped with a GIANT box of candy (mostly Reese’s PB cups obrigada a deus) and I’m trying to keep it down to 2-3 pieces a day. Also got a great new journal (the one I came with is almost full), some spandex to wear under my above-knee skirts which fit perfectly and a bunch of office supplies (new sharpies Whoo Hoo!). Also to celebrate my birthday we decided to do chips, salsa, guacamole (it’s avocado season finally) and chicken fajitas (with real chicken, no fake soy protein!). We had a few friends come over and enjoyed outselves. And a lemon pound cake for the birthday cake. Sorry, I left my camera in Chimoio a few weekends ago so no photos to post, but my roomie has one on her camera that I’ll get posted later.
In regular-life news I just started a new schedule at the secondary school. The first one had way too many people having conflicts so they just entirely re-did it (what’s to stop it from having new conflicts all over again I have no idea) and so far it’s working out. The first trimester is almost at an end, and I’ve almost been in Moz for almost 6 months. It’s a pretty crazy life and I’m still loving it.
