This is the first time I've been online since...Tuesday. So about a week. Our Internet was down. It was pretty frustrating. It was a lot worse for others than for me because they've had class registration stuff this week. I just want to talk to people at home. This week hasn't been too exciting. I've attended all my classes, gone to the daycare and Kampala twice, visited the kabaka's (king/cultural leader for a tribe) palace, seen one of Idi Amin's torture chambers, cried, sang, danced, eaten, slept, spent time with girls in my dorm and the other dorms, etc.
Every semester, USP plans and leads one community worship (chapel). Ours is tomorrow. We're singing 4 songs, doing a skit to "In the End" by Linkin Park, having a short message and doing cardboard testimonies. It's like...you put a sin or something you struggle with one on side and that God has healed you on the other. I'm singing as part of the chorus (along with basically everyone else) and doing a cardboard testimony. I was going to do the skit but couldn't make it to rehearsal. It looks really awesome though. If you're reading this and you're from Biola, Geoff and Michelle both have pretty major roles.
I really like the daycare. I like it even more when the real teachers aren't around. They expect the kids (about 1.5-4 years old)to act way older than they are, to sit properly and color in the lines and...whatever. I like just playing with them. That's more fun. They have some great names. There are kids like Jessie, Maggie, Martha, Matthew, Timothy, Elijah, Faith, Liza, and some funkier ones like Nyla (my favorite kid), Opio, Pascal, Persus (a girl, btw), and then some that are just...I don't know. There's Treasure and Future (brothers), Given, Praise, Agape, and I'm sure more that I don't remember. It's really cool.
I'm going on a safari this weekend. That's pretty sweet. This is my last full week of classes. That's sweet also. I think I'm done for now. Maybe I'll do some homework. Maybe not. Vaya con Dios.
