I survived IST

So it's been a while since I posted something. I know that I promised to write more, but there was always something to do.
Ist lasted 10 days, and sometimes was the most boring experience of my life. We learned some really useful things, and some things that I cannot remember because I chose to stare at the wall instead. I got pumped but about some of the stuff that we learned, and now I have some ideas for my village. That's all I have to say about that.
Jenni, Amanda, Shayla, and I have now become regulars at this restaurant that has Karaoke on Wednesdays and Sundays. We are actually quite good. Sure we are tone-deaf, but we do a good job getting the crowd pumped up. Our key audience is prostitutes, British people, and what we think is an underground gay community. (If Jammeh knew, it would be off with their heads) Jenni and I have made "friends" (really they just get super excited to see us and will not leave us alone) with two prostitutes who are sisters from Liberia. The other night we upset the DJ because we kept turning in fake names because he would not let us sing as much as we wanted. Finally the owner of the place asked why we were not singing, and then told the DJ to let us sing whenever we wanted. We had an even better time after that. We sometimes talk to a woman from the British Embassy, and she has even invited us to a party at her house in a couple of months. We are going to go again on Saturday night, and then it's back to site.
I had all these major plans to do a whole bunch of things when I was here, but really I just ended up sitting around doing nothing. By the time we finished IST each day, I really did not feel like doing too much else. I took it really easy, and unfortunately got back into the lifestyle of electricity, running water, air conditioning, and everything else that is amazing about Farjara. It may be really hard to go back to site now. Oh well, I actually sort of do miss my host family. All 20 of them. They're annoying, but they are special. It will be nice to return to site because there is a lot of drama around the PC house. Being trapped here for almost 3 weeks has been long.
Jenni is creating a blog about our Africa trip that we plan on taking after we are done with service. http://120daysaroundafrica.blogspot.com We are not linking it officially because we do not want to have any stalkers. I think that Jenni wants to blog so that maybe we can get some money to help finance the trip. We are still working on finding some guys, but as of now we are turning up empty. We found a cool car, but we do not need a car at this point. It'll probably still be for sale in two years.
Oh well, if I happen to make it on here again, then awesome. If not, then so long for now. I'm planning on returning August 2nd to clean the PC house. If we clean it then we can stay the night for free. We have to come down any way for banking, so why not stay for free. I'll post again some day in the future.
