how to survive the attack of curry overload

so ive been in guyana for a total of 8 days ( i think time is all relative here) and its pretty awesome on the coast. im living with a nice retired indo-guyanese couple. they took good care of me. and despite my efforts of trying to lose weight im probably going to pack some on with all the rice and roti. my mom thinks i never eat enough. she tells me to help myself and then adds more food lol. no big deal. they have a dog that i love..milo ;) and im going to walk him some. and i hang out with another trainee whose living next door with a family...they actually just invited me to go back to a wedding reception with them (the wedding was saturday :) ). Its pretty great here. i love the weather even though i sweat ALL THE TIME. I told them in my interview today that i like it here and i think a river community would be cool as long as i have a phone at some point during the day so my family wont worry. o and that i want to work with orphanages if possible. they said there may be like two sites for that WOO. well im going to keep this short cause gotta go see if my mom is cool with me going to the wedding ahh just like my nanny :) makes me a little sad but comforting at the same time! I've had a few sad moments but they are always balanced out by something really great happening. so im enjoying those small successes and the pc trainin staff is so fun and awesome. i figure if i can flood my host familys bathroom and live then ill be okay. LOL (more on that later). LOVE everyone. hope your reading at some point ill put up pics. forgive me for the grammar but i really dont care just excited to write.


talk to you soon
