a couple weeks ago i went to a birthday party. there were 20 kids hiding in my friends room, and they all jumped out and yelled when she opened the door. she cut a cake and gave everyone a piece. when she was taking a picture with some people, they got some of the marshmallow creme frosting and rubbed in on her face and hair. they everyone started doing it and she had to go shower haha. it was really fun. all her friends were really nice to me and taught me slang. after she was clean a couple people took her outside and smashed eggs on her hair and down her back, making her need to go take another shower. one of the presents she got was the most amazing animal i have ever seen. i don't know its english name but in bahasa its called a kuskus. its...indescribable. it has tiny teeth so they feed it mashed up banana and papaya. i got to hold it and i honestly just wanted to steal it and take it home with me. it has sticky little hands and it climbed all over me so getting a picture was hard but we managed :)
yesterday we went to the airport to get my host brother and sister because they were coming home from mecca. while we were there i saw a vending machine that had beer in it for about $2. i couldn't help but imagine all the shenanigans that would ensue if that was in america...haha
everything is amazing. i don't know how i can come back from this, how i can go back to high school after this. i'm sort of dreading it. i think i'd like to just run away and be a jungle hermit. live with the animals and make a hut of sticks. that would be nice.
sometime in april there's a trip with the afs people to bali. can't wait for that :) so until then, cheers

Wow, I don't know about that little Kuskus!! Sure, he's cute. But it could be quite a shock to wake up in the middle of the night and see him draped over the chair or dangling from the lamp!! What about his eyes, are they kind of like sloth eyes? He seems sort of slothy to me!!
You look so happy!!!

hahahaha i think it's so funny that she had to take 2 showers! that sounds like something that would happen with livi and hannah.

sounds like fun! I LOVED Bali, a bit touristy though, there are always secret locations to be found
I saw I am on your links, thanks!
Enjoy Indonesia!
That little kuskus reminds me of that little thing they catch in the talisman of shanara. I think it's name was Fawn. Don't let the shadowen stomp on it! ;)
that little thing looks like a mix of a monkey and a sugar glider....hahahaha he looks a little nervous too. Hes so cute! Hes probably as saggy as bageera hahahaha
