Mid - Time Blues... Holiday Hues...

ok, now it really isnt my fault! i havent had internet for soo long! now that my blackberry services have finished it is like i am totally disconnected from the world.... oh btw for all my blackberry lovers... me included... blackbery is nothing without its services! kmt... such a wack feature-less phone! its only when you are not being serenaded by the pings of a new bbm message that you realise it... i still love you though boo **kisses blackberry"

Anyhooo... what have i been up to so far?

well duno if you know i did my hair again... yep three times in the space of three weeks it was... well i may have mentioned that already but hey...


i also went to Akonsobo dam.. which was GORJUSLY BEAUTIFUL! went on a cruise to a little island were all the island kids tried to hold my hand.... and i shouted HESH HESH! everytime... i dont fall for all that cute hand holding business.... hmm... they got all persistent and not so cute when they were asking for money... i think that "can i have money to buy book to read" was probably all the english a few of them knew because when i said i dont got none... they looked a little confused....

i also visited Lambade beach... it was nice... was shocked to see such a sandy beach in ghana... i dunno was kind of expecting the same orange stuff you see on road on the beaches... but was pleasently suprised to see it was actually quite nice...

i have loaads of pics so will be posting.... sometime

i plan to do a whooole lot more of the touristy stuff in my last few weeks.... this week i plan to go to Ebru gardens... and the next week i will be going to cape coast to see the castle and all that fun stuf...

The childrens hommmeee!! lol it is such a fun place.. well not when i am tired.. kai! but i love them kids like wooah! they have their little gangs and gangsters and boss men... and even they are soo cute... i actually am enjoying working there... and getting to know the children better... others find it a lot more difficult to work their due to the cultural differences... but as you all prob know i am AFF so i know how certain things go down... for example... i am a firm believe in the phrase spare the rod spoil the child... AFRICAN/BLACK kids are STUBBORN KAAIII!! so sometimes when the aunties give dem a little knock i find myself giving a slight nod of yesss "you-were-being-soo-cheeky-so-deserved-that"... ah! i mean gosh! if it was all about love and pampering then these kids will be seriously spoilt... i think it should not be forgotten that although the children have no parents, which in itself is a sad situation, it should always be rememebred that the orphanage is their home... so that means they need to be disciplined to grow up to be sensible adults.. if that makes sense? I believe in showing them love as well as a firm hand.. cus if i just smile and giggle whenever they knock the other child over the head with their cup of Hausa Coco they will become increasingly spoilt!

However... there are some things that happen there that is a little sad... like the kids are made to sit on a potty for a loooonnnngg time some of them are not even old enough to hold up their head... but tbh i cant even blame them... nah condition as my people will say... they cant afford to keep the kids in nappys constantly... sad but true... SO if anyone would like to make a donation let me know... and ill let them know :D


I am MISSING all my people immensly! sigh my fam my girls and all my peoples! but dont worry will soon be coming home sadly....cant believe it has gone soo quickly!!

Anyhoo... will love you all and leave u... taking my host mothers son out for his birthday.. he is soo cheeky! lol today he said to his mum because she was telling him to read his book... ah you go back to your job! loool good times....


love you all long time! good night! xxx
