Transit and Africa - though not related.

The bus routes in town changed and my ride to school is now absolutely painful!! Instead of taking a fairly direct route from my home to the mall to the school I now have to go through Rutland. This means nothing to most of you, but Lauren understands. Rutland = Stopping every 30 meters. Like I said, painful. More stopping equals more people. Many more people. The driver had to skip the last 10 stops because there was no room on the bus to pick up the waiting students. They didn't even think to pull out the double decker for the occasion of school starting. The ride home was even more painful because I wasn't lucky enough to grab a seat. I think I'm going to have to suck it up and transfer to a different but even though the whole trip will take a bit longer. I refuse to take that bus again.

Tummy Time during our Sleepover

Now the more exciting part of the post (for me at least). I am currently in the early stages of writing my Letter of Intent for an international practicum in Africa!!!! The letter is due on Wednesday so I really need to get on it, but I have been so busy (excuses, excuses). I am so excited!!! I'm fairly certain I won't be rejected, but you never know so I'm trying not to get too excited. Also, I need to save up a whole lot of money to be able to afford the trip. Some of you may remember that Lauren went on the same trip last year. It's 6-7 weeks in Africa and I get credit for it! Who would pass that up??? I don't know where I want to go yet - the options are Zambia or Ghana. It kind of depends who I'm going with. I know that's selfish, but it's true.  I'll write more on this later, I'm sure. For now I should get back to writing my letter of intent. Woohoo!!!
