End of Week 8

Hi,

Done with week 8 and it feels like it is finals week, cramming for tests and presentations. I have my practicum monday, with some young boys talking about their future and what work they want to do, with a little bit of gender talk, friday is the final language interview and i am not a very good speaker but i think i will barely pass and i am sure it will come with time and not living with people who speak english. I will be living in Zambezia Province, in a small village called Mugulama. I will be working with people living with HIV and AIDS, making sure they adhere to treatment, building the capacity of the community to recieve the materials needed to care for the sick, developing and implementing projects based on treatment, prevention and working as a link between the closest hospital and our community. I will have to learn a local language and prolly will not have electricity. Should be fun and tough. Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving and there is no real thanksgiving unless the lions play like the lions normally do. Go to go talk to you soon.
