Just had my toenails and fingernails painted, glitter and all (gotta pass the time somehow). I still don't get why girls think this is so much fun :-/

3 Long Island Iced Teas + 1 Gin & Tonic + 1 Tequila Shot + a French lady asking me to take a hundred pictures of her in her bathing suit + another lady telling me her room # = an awesome birthday party lol Thanks Naseem! ;p

So I sprained both my ankles last week. The Peace Corps doctor says to keep them on ice, keep them raised, etc. The usual. A few days later my Host Family looks at it and tells me I should swim in the ocean at 6 in the morning, and that'll heal it right up. I tell my Dep. Headmaster and his wife this, and she looks at me like I'm crazy, then she tells me I should slice my foot open to let all the "bad blood" out, and it'll heal right up.

I think I'll stick with the ice, thanks :-S

It started with me becoming oblivious to flies and mosquitos (sure they still itch and I swat them away, I'm just not disgusted by them anymore) ...then those giant cockroaches and big-ass spiders in the toilet...meh. And now I've hit a new plateau of dontcareitude...ants. I used to HATE seeing ants crawling on my food or crumbs, but now I would happily drop crumbs on the floor and after a few minutes watch it wiggle away from me into one of the holes in the walls. They're like nature's convenient little sweepers.

I've even eaten off a plate that ants have picked bare just cuz I was too lazy to wash it. Oh yeah. I'm bad.

It's Friday here, which means the deputy headmaster will be by in a coupla hours sayin "Mista Ken, bae yu-mi go drink kava!" He's already said tomorrow I'll be joining in a one-year anniversary dinner of his wife's brother's death, where there will be (*big shock*) kava drinking!

I think Imma just hide in my bed this weekend 8-S

Well I had kava again last night...except this time it was old-school, i.e. instead of grinding it they chewed it up and spit it out in to a ball, then strained it to make the drink...I swear I thought I was gonna catch Herpes.
