Okay so forget about part of the last blog entry. Here's what I'll actually be doing starting January: I'll be teaching English to grades 5 and 6, which is actually 14 periods a week (not 10 like I had originally thought), and I'll also be taking on Arts for 5,6, and 7. That's an extra 6 periods a week, leaving me with a total of 20.
I voluntarily asked for Arts because...well...because nobody else wants it. It'll be challenging because we have limited resources...very limited resources. But I'll make it work.
Onto another topic...
I have a new roommate. His name is Protex.
Because he eats my Protex soap.
I have yet to confront him about this issue because he's very shy and doesn't like to be seen. See, over the weekend while I was in Katima, he cleaned all the bugs off the floor that I had yet to sweep up. I think that was his way of apologizing ahead of time for eating a hole through my backpack and feasting on the corner of my soap.
I have mixed emotions about this situation. I respect him cleaning up the floor....but then he decided to poop on my dishes. That is absolutely unacceptable. I don't think he'd be very happy if I returned the favor on something of his. Not to mention he's so noisy. At night all I hear is *squeak squeak squeak* and his little claws scratching at things.
I don't want to resort to murder...I'm in the "Peace" Corps after all...but I may have to kick him out soon...at least before he invites a girlfriend to move in, and then next thing you know I'll have to share my one room hut with an entire family....an entire family that eats soap and poops on my dishes.
Nope.
