... to eat much myself and just felt really <br>(this explanation is definitely not doing the experience justice, but I am pretty sure it is more of a personal thing that Renee has to deal with herself)<br>I have decided to bring some kind of meal for the kids at least once a week. <br>Kim, the girl I have been teaching with, told me that we shouldn&#8217;t because then they would expect it and she wasn&#8217;t sure if she could afford it.<br>Again, angry Renee emerged and felt like ...

... home for dinner, bath and bed...<br><br>This is a typical day right now, but will change next week when I return to the law firm. Doing homework with the children is the most demanding part of the day. There is a comprehensive school system here, but the way they teach things is dreadful - the children must learn everything by rote, are not taught to understand anything they learn, and therefore often cannot read well at all even by the 3rd or ...

... knows tuna, cauliflower and zucchini are not pizza appropriate) has made a chant out of the name running and now every time I see her feels it necessary to start chanting ra ra ra ra running. Ra ra ra ra running. <br>(side note about joyce. When I was at the teshie festival running in the mosh pit mob I definitely thought I saw Joyce standing on a rock shaking the living daylights out of maraca. I spent about a good 3 minutes staring at her trying to decide if it was ...

... br><br>Then when i return for my run around 6, there is usually a new source of noise outside the dorm. At every dorm i pass, there is a preacher set up in the front and the back with a loud speaker--praying or preaching to the students inside. This doesn't bother me because I can't for the life of me manage to sleep past 8:30 even when im trying to sleep in, but i can only imagine how annoying it must be for people who ...

... preparing to have it put on a pedestal next to the body shortly. There was a museum there where we saw pictures of Nkrumah with many political leaders (including JFK) and other famous U.S. figures, and some other internationally known individuals (Fidel Castro and his brother and Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali). <br><br>Afterwards, we went to a funeral. It was a really different atmosphere than funerals in the U.S. We went to the home of the ...

... he rememb**ed that he wanted to visit an old custom**. SO we ve**ed off the road, into the bush for atleast 15 minutes until we found this village. (we did this atleast 3 more times!) His friend was the only one in the village with a light &#8211; and it came from a solar pow** lamp that Suraj sold him a year ago. It was dark by then, so when we brought out a case of solar lant**ns, the entire village surrounded us like months to a flame. It was awesome watching ...

Okay, so I've got a blog that&#8217;ll be a bit more interesting than the last. Yesterday, I had some music lessons with Uncle Sulley. I WAS going to make redred, but apparently Yefowa didn&#8217;t get the memo, so she ended up making redred for dinner, lol. For lunch, Uncle taught me how to fry yams. The yams here are different. They&#8217;re these huge white potatoes that are just barely sweeter than regular potatoes. So Yefowa boiled them and I fried them. Then Uncle cooked ...

... we stopped at various back roads along the way to pick up more and more and more people. Soon the minivan was packed to the max, with people inside and with possessions, bikes, and all mann** of **** on the roof. We ended up with 24 people in the back of the van...probably more that double its real capacity and making it a rath** uncomfortable and bloody hot (yes, it was anoth** 40 degree day, plus some humidity) ride. We could have handled that OK, and in fact we w**e quite enjoying ...

... trees in the background. During other weekends we use to spend time at Champs sports bar which again provided a nice break from African life and allowed us me to catch up on the sporting front as well as grab some western food and have dairy products of which I was deprived living with a local family. During my time in Ghana I lived with the volunteers in one of our host families houses. The family had a large number of family members and there was always people coming ...
