Our last day at Kihonda Secondary was spent in our tech POD for which the Educare group joined us. PCV Yue had taken apart 2 computers in the school’s computer lab and we had to put them back together. They mostly work again. For me, it was a funny POD because not only did we joke around a lot with one another, but Yue has the same mannerisms and similar voice as my friend Marty; I got a kick out of it.
At the end of the day, PCV Jeff joined us and he bought a couple music DVDs at the shop next to the bar. Some of the song titles were unreadable as English and some were hilarious because some of the words were wrong (esp. different English words that look similar when written). Wish I could remember some of them…
I headed back to the school in late afternoon because I had told my students I would answer any questions they have for their exams next week. On the way, I ran into Tim, who is feeling much better and was on his way to meeting a student for English help. None of my students showed up but Tim and I were able to help some Form 3 students who were studying and I joined him for awhile at the English session he held. Basically a handful of students come to get a quick lesson on English and to practice speaking English.
As I was walking home, I noticed a goat with what looked like a reddish-pink balloon coming out of its rear-end. When I got closer, I saw a baby goat lying on the ground, occasionally bleating. I just missed a goat being born! The “balloon” looking thing must have been the placenta that was still stuck to the mother, who didn’t seem to care as she went on munching the grass. Definitely not something I’d be likely to see I the US on any given day.
Happy Birthday Katie!
