Quick Update

What a week!  After returning from Keets last week I spent most of my time relaxing while getting the last bits of work done before I leave for the States.

Silas, Amy, Dan, Juli, Angela, Elizabeth, Irene and myself just before leaving for the music awards.

The highlight was attending Namibia's music awards.  I got a free ticket because I created a video promo for an HIV/AIDS awareness CD that 14 Namibian artists contributed to.  Unfortunately, the promo was never played due to the extreme lack of organization and time.  It would have been pretty cool to see something I made on national television though...

The music awards were quite the fiasco.  As I don't really care to go into detail let this summary suffice: started late, audience was riotously loud, award presenters were confused and uncoordinated, music was great, Gazza and The Dogg fans fought each other (two escorted out bleeding), finished after midnight.

This week I'm wrapping up some things at the school.  Wednesday all the education volunteers (at least the ones who haven't left for the States yet) will go to Grieter's conference center (again) for a mid-service conference.  Should be fun.

Then, Saturday at 845 I leave for the States.  Whoopeee!!!  I'll probably post once more before then, then it will be all quiet on the blog until I return on the 3rd of January.
