I bet you think this blog is about you... don't you...

Well, no its not. Why you might ask? Cause it's about me sillys!  I am uploading some photos since I have a little bit of free time between my writing and procrastinating. So by the time you wake up and check the interwebs I have something nice and fresh for you to read! Since its 6amish Austin, TX time. So, here we go!

Chickens just roam wild here. They don't fear people either.

Yoli got an AWESOME care package from her dad. Filled with nothing but delicious goodies and snacks. Reeces, Doritos, PB&J and Ritz Crackers.... Oh! Be still my beating heart. She so kindly shared with all of us and it was an instant mood booster! Twas a happy moment for all! Not just her.

My new Ethiopian sisters. H1 and H2. They told me to call them that cause their names were HARD. I don't really know what they are actually called.

I contributed to the first night this girl was drunk. Ever. I feel very privilaged as we have bonded quite a bit this month. 

The party host! He was trying to make fun of Americans, so of course being who I am, interrupted him... then corrected him on how to make fun of Americans. If you're gonna make fun of me, DO IT RIGHT.


Biggest ripoff ever. How much you wanna bet that the coffee here is a million times better than real Starbucks?

At the spice market in Harar! 


Ginger and Garlic. My grandpa would be a kid in a candy store here.

Why yes, that is a guy with a baton, and right next to me a guy with an AK-47. Just sittin there protecting and serving. 

Tis the season. Its pomegranate time!

Henna on my palm! Its not lasting as long as I would like cause of that whole gross sweaty palm problem I've got... haha.

This is the one that will last a while. Its so perdy.

"I promise I won't eat you!"

Go go gadget Hyena time!

    
This is the stupid hyena not eating my professor.
So there it all is!! My last uploads from Africa! I'll write an overview blog when I get back to the states, and I'll notify you all when I get back into chicago! I realize I finished this at 11:45pm Y'alls time. Keep sending your entertaining emails. Catch me up on the American shenanigans happening without me.

Oh... Ive been watching a lot of BBC, and turns out I like being unawares in the states. But now I have knowledge of world goings on... So much for sheltering myself anymore. BBC is tha bomb.
