At the moment I'm on the 3 week countdown to my departure while at the very same moment 60 new volunteers are far above on their way to the land of constrasts........soon I'll be meeting them face to face though and get to soak in all of their greeness and celebrate the growth I've acquired in my 2+ years here.
So last night I was in my bedroom packing when I decided to open my screened window to let the cool breeze in (yes cool because it RAINED for about 10 minutes). Upon opening the window my door slammed shut only to find it could not be opened again.....yes I was stuck in my room which has durable burglar bars with no way out. Luckily I didn't lock my front door and I always do and knew a few hostel kids were coming over for tutoring sometime now,now (within say an hour or so)...so I sat down texted my lil bro stateside and waited for the learners to arrive which they did and they released my promptly. Just what would have happened if I'd locked my front door? I have the only existing key and it would have been in the door? OH Namibia
