last sunday

didnt go to church this morning... just felt like staying in. i spent the whole morning just reading the word and listening to worship music and just relaxing... it was really good. church here is great.. but i can never REALLY understand... so yah.

then i packed up most of my stuff... gosh i got rid of SO much stuff!! all the school supplies are gone.. the soccer balls... and i gave almost all of my clothes to Agnes today.. oh my word she was sooo happy. it made me so happy :) its so easy to bless the people here... it takes so little to make a big difference. she is so sad that i am leaving.. and keeps saying she will never forget me. oh i love her :) its nice because she is 17. someone my age finally!!

maria gave me some earrings that she made today... so sweet!! going away presents. makes me sad... i am going to miss these people soo soo soo so much. they are family to me now.

then i went to meet nelson the soccer coach at the alpha palace hotel and we sat in this huge room with 100 black men and watched a live soccer match. they were crazy.. haha that was intresting.
then had dinner. yum! i am going to miss the african coffee/tea so much! there is noothing like it.

nelson is funny. he speaks good english but i can still barley understand what he is saying half of the time.
and i had to laugh because in the backround they were playing BARBIE GIRL and backstreet boys.
and nelson told me i look like brittney spears. ha that made me laugh so hard.
the other day i saw a "gangster'' walking down the streeet... with a brittney spears tee shirt on.
its like they are a decade behind. its so funny.

its going to be really hard to leave... i love it here. i cant wait to be home also tho. im not really doing anything important here now.. im just... being. so im ready for home... but ill miss these people.. and the smell.. and the coffee... and the goat brochettes... soooooo much.

hm. not much left to say.
tomorrow coffee farm i believe... good two hour drive through the country side!! YAY!

and then tuesday teddy and nelson come over in the morning to say goodbye :(
and then off to kicukiro to say goodbye to nickies family..
and then finish packing say goodbye to my little family here... and then off to america.
so weird.

good. but weird.

this trip couldnt have been more perfect :)
