September 2, 2005

6:55pm No, I am not in bed already. I just have a quiet minute!


Well, I have developed a nervous twitch in my left eye. It has been twitching since lunch time, so annoying. It must be do to stress. I also have one bite the size of the entire country on my lower back. So gross! Today, other than my twitch and bite, was great. We found a water source that required about a 30 minute hike in the jungle-so beautiful. Then had a 2 hour lunch, then had language, then hung out at the kiosk. I slept well last night so felt kind of better today.

Oh, so after we went on the hike we went to Jesse’s and the president’s son was sitting there. He is 4 and OMG so CUTE! Xanana’s wife is Australian so he is mixed and just gorgeous, curly brown/blond hair. On top of being too cute, he spoke English, Tetun, and Portugese. Wow, he was cute and super smart-he talked about how spiders (his pet spiders) couldn’t eat flies because flies are too big but mosquitoes are a good size.

Ave called me today to give me my option_ (no “s” mind you). They are going to send me to Manatuto, 1.5 hours from Dili on the north coast. I told him I would have to see it first (which if I am going to stay is a must). Also there are already two volunteers there (Sash and Lillias). I don’t know, I am still pretty set on going home but I will for sure know more once I see the place.  Ah-my eye is going crazy!

Dinner time.
