well maybe not so much. I am definitely happy to be able to communicate with everyone, through email, letters that I got today, and the things I hope to be able to send out tomorrow. Other than that though I miss Kaif. It was a lot like leaving home two months ago. This morning it was still dark when the Peae Corps van came to pick us up. Even though it was quiet hours my dad, moms, and sister were all outside when the bus pulled up. I got to say good morning, hope you slept well, and my usual greeting one last time. It was difficult though and my voice started cracking. When its dark, the only way to communicate was through voice so I hope that they understood I was sad to be leaving. Last night I stayed up until after 11, and went to all of the important compounds in my neighborhood to say goodbye and chat a little. Every time someone would tell me to stay and chat I would tell them that my mom said I have to get home since its my last night. Actually, she was a lot like my dad. When I told her what time we were leaving she insisted on getting up and making me breakfast. It was way too early but she did rush out to get me a full bag of peanuts for the road.
Once we got into the city we had a full day of instruction at the Peace Corps office. Then we all got home, ate dinner, and everyone went to work on the internet. Luckily some people went out tonight, which freed up some bandwidth. Well after the late night of saying goodbye yesterday, and the early morning travel today. Im going to bed now. Will try and be up early for some more free internet time. Love you guys!
