HEy everyone
Times here are continueing on nicly. I am feeling more and more comfortable amidst the hustle of the tro-tro's, the confusion of a mapless street and the people I beging to see everyday as my traveiling routes change and adapt.
I bought a nice new bike light system for caprice (*my bike), it is powered by friction on the wheel and cost 4 dollars. I will bring it home to use there. The biking is geting better to as I get used to my home.
BUt I get used to it I begin going out later and hanging out with my friends more, whifch is very nice, and my host family doesn't seem to mind. BUt it is a marked difference from my first 5 weeks.
As we all beging to know each other better our convorsations become nicer, we have lots of inside jokes and normality sets in. it is really nice, b ut it makes these blogs harder to write, if all is normal what shjould I tell you to whom all is differnt, I will try.
School is also getting better we are getting in to politics and political-economics and things, which are more inteeresting to me, we get to read the Ghana PRSP (new form of SAP) and critique it a little. That is 'development' for some people here, but a lot of thinking has gone into it. Many interesting angles comming out that would be imposible to get in Canada. We ahve had many guest lectures on things like AIDS or culutre and development.
The essays are not hard but take up my time, and I must get to some reaserach now so I will elave you. PEACE adn LOVE
