Lumelang!!!
(Sesotho for Hello)
It has been forever, or so it seems, since I left the States. As crazy as it seems to me, I have only been in country for one week. We have jumped right into learning the language as well as many health, policy and technical information. Talk about information overload!!! The amount of books and manuals that I have to peruse at my leisure (yeah right) is insane! My confidence in my skills is just begining to reappear, it was playing hide and seek with me. It definately forgot that I enjoy finding lost things. I'll do just swell here!!! No worries!!! Tomorrow we go on a field trip to a school where we will end up doing some teacher training during our community based training. We will visit with current volunteers on Sunday and return to Maseru mid week. After that we, 4 other resource teachers, language teacher, and I) will venture out into a village to be immersed in the language. I imagine this is where most of my acquisition will come.

I was telling some of you that due to the fact that we are still trainees, the peace corps will pick up the tax on our incoming packages, so feel free to check in with my mum on getting me some goodies. Apparently a flat rate box can be shipped with no weight limit, for $37. Things I forgot to mention to mum include: beef jerky, deoderant, Tom's Natural Toothpase, multi-vitamins, and calcium.

Sale Hantle!!
Good Bye
