... lump in my gut, mental tissue automatically wrapping itself around the psychological wound I’m trying to deny. Denial is the world’s longest riv**, and it’s running right through me right now. I’ve been violated. I’m hoping th**e won’t be collat**al damage, but that might be impossible. Ev**y confrontation leaves an IOU wh**e something was taken without p**mission ...

... not what breaks them. It is living as a discarded human being that takes their spirit. Statistics tell us that a great number of the very same people who have rejected them are also infected but they choose not to know. Otherwise they too will be vulnerable to being thrown out like the trash. Fear and denial are feeding the pandemic. Rivoningo works towards reviving the health of persons with HIV/AIDS to a level where they ...

... places even had air con in the rooms. My rommie and i didn't use it, except for one night the hut was really stuffy, I also wasn't as impressed with that one place, (our last night). It was all very cute but i had a couple ants on the bed and i couldn't relax. I went to bed sweating but wearing pants, socks, and a long sleeve shirt. I did manage to get some sleep. All the other places were great and it was very relaxing ...

... Kaapstad aan de luchthaven én geen verblijf in Kaapstad! Pffft... Snel de Coast-to-coast bovengehaald en maar de nodige backpackers hostels opgebeld. 2de is al onmiddellijk prijs! Gelukkig! Toch nog met een beetje twijfels stappen we het vliegtuig op, maar bij aankomst staat er iemand ons op te wachten. We zijn dus verzekerd van een slaapplaats voor vanavond. We zullen wel zien hoe het eruit ziet en morgen beslissen of we er gaan blijven of niet.

... Safeway bag, so he has had to borrow another bag altogether. Which leads me to the weather... there are two temperatures here, freeeeeeezing cold at night and in the morning, or blistering, sweltering melt youyr face off hot in the daytime. It's great. But, the second you spot your first elephants of the day, all that is forgotten and you don't care how cold you are or that you haven't showered or washed your ...

... this way, when they lose the case report, I will have a copy!!! Upon leaving I had to ask to be 'let out' as the antiquated security doors had self-closed from the sentry post outside the gate. This was to stop people gaining access to the police station in times gone by. Now it involves a senior officer rolling his eyes, hoisting himself up 15 feet to fit through a gap on the ceiling without setting off his gun and pulling a leaver. 'Wait there', he ...

A lot has been happening recently, which is one explanation as to why I have not posted in so long. In this entry I will try to bring everyone up to speed on the general happenings here. One of the major frustrations to me and being here is not having a car. The public transport here is not very reliable, and so I have been limited by the distance that I could walk. So, in order to solve that problem and actually see the city of Pretoria ...

... and has been great so far. We put signs up everywhere telling the kids who and when they are reading with so that they can't forget! Well this is already quite long, so I will stop typing! So far this has been a great way to keep in touch, and I apoligize to everyone who has written me personal e-mails and I haven't written back- i appreciate them so much, but we have limited internet time, sorry! Also, I know some of you have talked to my mum about putting a package ...

... in zlo afrisko - vse mal razpada, sam ima DUH! ;) (kar ne pomeni, da smrdi - spirit ;) je na hribcku in zvecer se soncni zahod razlije po okoliskih hisah :) Kot verjetno vsi veste je JoBurg eden izmed bolj nevarnih krajev na svetu, lahko se primerja npr. s Port Moresbyem al pa predelom Ingelwood v LA-ju ;) (ceprav mislim, da je v JoBurgu vecja verjetnost, da te oropajo; medtem ko je Port Moresby bolj znacilno, da ce te oropajo je moznost prezivetja manjsa ...

... bei bruetender Mittagshitze, wozu wir bestimmt zwei Stunden brauchten. Aber keine Frage, der Ausblick hat uns doppelt belohnt. Wie schade, dass genau in diesem Moment meine Kamera ihren Geist aufgegeben hat  Hier oben auf ca. 1000m Hoehe konnten wir nicht nur weit aufs Meer hinaussehen, sondern auch runter in die Metropole und auf die Kaphalbinsel, der wir am naechsten Tag einen Besuch abstatteten. Wir schlossen uns einer Tour an, verbrachten gemeinsam mit anderen jungen ...
