I woke up yesterday with a great vibe. I had a lot of energy and thankfully it carried me through the whole day. The morning wasn’t rainy—for the first time in a week or so—and the sun started coming through right after Abby and I began our walk to school. Whenever it’s sunny and clear […]

Yesterday officially marks 2 full months in Tanzania. It was a good and typical day. I was very fatigued—I think I might be getting a little sick—so, I volunteered to supervise exams. If you have some time, I recommend looking at this exam that they take. I’m disappointed. This exam comes from the city council

Yesterday went just about how I thought it would. I was exhausted by lunch. Despite having slept well, I still struggled to keep my energy up throughout the day. But what the hey. There were many activities and things to keep me busy, so I only really noticed being tired when I had a moments

Yesterday marks two months of being away from home. Don’t get that confused with two months of being in Africa; remember I had 48 hours of travel time to start my adventure! In the morning I was supposed to go on a walk with Lucas provided that it wasn’t raining. Unfortunately, it had rained all

Yesterday I was busy running around. I didn’t really do much—I was just along for the ride. I slept in 2 extra hours!!! I woke up at 6 but forced myself back to sleep because I was feeling pretty tired through the week. Those extra hours weren’t great sleep, I kept tossing and turning, but,

Yesterday flew past. I was walking to school at 7:00, looked up and then I was on a bus going home. Normally fast days mean busyness—this pattern applies to yesterday. I got to school and was thrown into the class 7 testing room. I had to be in music though, so I was flustered trying

Yesterday morning there was an incident on the route. Before any kids had boarded the bus, we managed to do a little damage to our beautiful machine. It disappears when you look at the bus as a whole; the dent feels more natural for the state of our half-running bus. We hit a little concrete

The morning route when fine. There was a little bit of trauma lingering in the air from the previous day. The roads were dried out as it hadn’t rained over night, so it was fine driving. We arrived at school around 8:00. I had to get right to preparing for exams and missed out on

It was an eventful one yesterday. I woke up really well. I remember jolting out of bed, narrowly beating my alarm to the punch, and being fully ready for the day in a matter of seconds. It was a good thing that I was moving quickly; at 6:30 (right around when I’m normally slipping into
