Another week has gone by and I apologize once again for my lack of posts. We had Zulu class every day last week and it was quite exhausting. We’ve learned so much! I how know present and past tense, commands, questions, and constructing sentences. I'm still struggling with pronunciation but more practice should help. Our Zulu teacher also teaches at a local middle school and she has writing letters to her students there and they’re going to write back. She said she could even arrange for us to visit her class one day next week. I think it’ll be fun to meet her students.

Since we had Zulu everyday, we didn’t get out at all the last week. Since the mall trips and movie runs are usually made in the afternoon during our class. Although beautiful nature reserves, monkeys, and zebras surround us, I’m really excited for the next trip to town. I’m going a little crazy.

Tonight we’re going to church though. I’m excited. From what I hear it’s a big church and there’s a concert tonight. Last week I attended a church whose Pastor works at the African Enterprise. I loved it. They had like an hour and half of worship. It was really great to worship with such a diverse group of people. Plus there were about 20 babies there and a bunch of kids. I got to play with a few of them after the service.

Although I'm going a little crazy being on campus so much I do love it here. I have found several amazing spots to sit and think and pray. There's so much time for reflection. One of my favorite spots is right next to a waterfall. I could sit there for hours and just read. I love being in nature. I feel the Lord has really blessed us with this place.

I almost forget yesterday we attended drum lessons. It was really fun. We all got to play african djembe drums. I wasn't very good, but I had a good time trying. It was pretty much the highlight of my week.
