Malagasy Mayhem!

It's crazy here!! I love it though! Just wanted to let you know that I'm alive and things are going well! I've been eating rice here 3 times a day and I'm going to balloon up soon haha all I eat is carbs! I actually like coffee here, it's amazing and so much better than the States and so is all the fruit! I pee in a pucket and shower with a bucket of water, what can I say I live a glamouras life here. haha I read and do everything by candle light which I'm getting used to. My host family is amazing and so much better than everyone elses. I have two sisters and a little brother who are amazing! I will try to put up pictures soon!! I found out my site and it should be awesome, only 2hrs from the beach!! More to come on that once I actually visit it in a few weeks! The language is hard and we have a lot of training during the week, but all the people here are amazing! We went to an orphanage today which was fun, got to play with all the kiddo's and such that like me more than Nicole and Corie haha. They've become two of my best buds here and I don't know what I'd do without them!! haha We're listening to awesome 80's music in this small internet cafe right now, so it's a good time but just wanted to give everyone an update! Send me stuff, please!! haha but really do it! I'll appreciate it like you wouldn't know. Email is really hard to get to for me so I will only check it like once a month, but I did get a phone today! Woohoo at their WalMart here Jumbo haha. Here's the number 011261 325509534 Give me a call on saturdays or sundays! or maybe i'll call you sometime!

Enjoy and more to come hopefully sooner than later!

Hey there! So... things around here have been kind of crazy and I MISS YOU!!!!! Jules & I had Groucho's for supper the other night -we hadn't seen each other since you left and we missed you. Isn't the same. I can't believe you aren't here to listen to our latest stresses of the moment....... HOWEVER.... I am SO glad you are where you want to be and from what I hear-you are loving it! I cannot believe a month has gone by since you have left and I guess this goes to show how quickly time will fly! But- I have checked out your blog and your book wish list and I will DEFINITELY be sending you a letter/ package VERY SOON! By next week some time! I hope you get it in a timely manner- if not I guess this blog is proof that I will be sending it. :) hehe..... Hope you're doing well... and loving every minute of it! Take care hun & talk to you soon! LOVE YOU!
