So i'm back in the center again! This morning I said goodbye to them all. The kids waited to go to school until after I left and my dad drove me to the center in our amazing '70s van. (It looks like the mystery machine!!!) Last night I decided to give a lot of my clothes and things to my family. I gave a ton of my t-shirts to my house help sister and then a lot of my notebooks and folders and extra bug spray, etc to my family to use. I'm going to go back and visit them in a few days before I leave. I'm definately going to miss seeing my aunt and my dada late at night. We stayed up together a lot after my parents went to bed and talked about America, my hair, etc. It was really fun, but at least I know that I have somewhere to come to if I ever come back here! Now we are on our last leg of our trip. Today and tomorrow we have presentations over two of our papers, but I think that a majority of us are pretty worn out by now. It seems a little intense to have a test, three papers, and two presentations in a matter of five days. Pretty intense. I'm just ready to be finished with all my work!!!! I'm really excited for Jumatano (Wed.) because we get to go to the Rwandan Tribunals AND it's also a fellow student's 21st birthday! Happy Birthday Jack! AND, I'm going to be finished with all my papers and presentations, the first break I'll have had ALL SUMMER. But I'm a little sad to be leaving. It's going to be such a rough transition from living here to living in the states again. I'm glad that we at least have a kind of grace period in the center where we can get used to the idea of showers again and things like that. It's just weird for me to realize I leave for home in less than five days. Not only that, but it's basically 24 hours of flying time as well. It's going to be intense: the word of the trip. Anyway, time to go "prepare" for my presentation that I have to do in a few hours. Oh! And to reply to the question about my album "Going on nne...", the "my sis" picture. I have no idea what that is!!!!! I have shown everyone in the computer lab and we can't believe it. There is something right above my sister in the picture in the woods. That's not a person because that is the woods behind my house. No one is able to walk around back there because of all the trash/water/etc. I am hoping it's a banana leaf or something...I'm just really glad that I didn't see that picture until AFTER I moved out!!! It's pretty scary!!!!




Anyway, this will most likely be my last post until I come home unless something amazing happens in the next few days. See you all soon!!
