Day 120 – Thursday 27th May 2010

There are only two more days of term left, and so today I had to finish off all the reports. It makes a change to only have 80, and not the 350 I am used to writing and checking. However, the added complication was the requirement to complete in Swahili.

Luckily fellow colleagues gave me some good lines to use.

“Dhaifu sana”

“Fanya bidii kwenye somo la sayansi”

Shame I used the first one a lot. It means ‘very poor.’

Anyone fancy trying to translate the second?

Armorel had nearly as an exciting day. She spent over 7 hours sat listening to an AIDS prevention organisation explaining how to apply for grants and funding. It was worth the torment, if the clinic is successful, but I did feel sorry for her.

Tonight we have Yvonne over for dinner. She is a student studying the relationship between hygiene and health in HIV patients, and is based at the clinic.

A lovely evening was had, though we are flagging.

Bring on Friday.
