Today I almost killed someone. Well... I maybe been I little bit dramatic here. During Fabian, Helluthu and Evelyn's ACD (Active citizen day) it started raining and became windy. So I thought I would be useful and thread the curtains through the horizontal glass windows slats to stop the curtains blowing. As I did this I managed to knock the window pane out of the window and it bounced off a ledge and smashed to the ground two stories below. I have a feeling it did come quite close to hitting someone...whoops.
Anyways back to last week- we started attending the school assemblies for the first time. They start them off by singing a very beautiful Swahili song. However this is followed by much talking in Swahili. However it is nice to see the whole college together.
My group taught three sessions this week and realised how hard teaching is when you have an unresponsive class who don't speak English!! Aside from this the rest of the working week was filled with getting lots of our baseline surveys completed and then working out the best data analysis methods for these surveys.
On Friday night I played Scrabble with Sam, Maria and Stella. Despite Maria and Stella not having English as their first language they still manages to resoundingly beat me. On the plus side I have discovered a new favourite beer out here.
This week is already starting to look packed, and will be rounded off with a beach clean on Saturday. Now to attempt not to get eaten alive by bugs as I was last night.
