Arrived back from Africa

Postby The Silence » Sun May 02, 2004 7:26 pm

Jambo! I had a wonderful time and it feels very odd to be at home after not being here for two months. I am so jet-lagged cause i got home yesterday and it's an 11 hour time difference.

Anyways I'm going to go back for collage in Africa in 8 months. I shall be studying theology. Hello to everyone.

Ah, so that explains your Silence (pun MOST DEFINITELY intended).

So what kind of stuff were you up to in Africa? EireWolf mentioned that you had very unstable internet connection over there.

Well, first off thankyou to everyone who just so wonderfully welcomed me back.

As mentioned I did have an very unstable internet connection, but that was mostly caused by the very unstable POWER supply.... not to mention the fact that we ha 64k for the entire college....

as a result i've completely lost my talent(and desire I must admit) to run my life and have a substantial online presence >_< so you might not hear too much from me while i'm in the states either...

and i was not trampled by an elephant, but i know someone who was. Luckily she wasn't killed. She has a broken rib and a fractured leg and a very very bad break in the other leg requiring sugury and pins and all that fun stuff, so pray for her quick recovery.

Maybe when I get over my rather oppressive jet-laggedness i will feel like saying more....

I was in East Africa, kenya to be specific, and i quite enjoyed it. Well obviously I liked it a lot or I wouldn't be commiting myself to several years of study there....

Hey, The Silence, I like your sig pic very much. ^_^ And of course, we all want to hear all the stories about your time in Africa... but I have the privilege of bugging you about it at church. :evil:
