So its been a while now since my last post. Its quite hard to think of stuff to write when there is a lack of inspiration. I have been in Joburg for 3 weeks and it has become very casual, like I've been here for like 3 yrs or so.
The first week that I was here was the only week that I was in as perfect health as I left Canada, I have been sick with so many different things that I jus wonder what the ailment for this week will be.
I have had more misunderstandings in Coombis due to the language barrier.
I have had my wallet with my important cards stolen.
SIGH!
I'm uninspired to write BUT that does not mean that there aren't good things going on. Well there are magnificent people around at work and people who I've met otherwise and the one thing that I do look forward to right now is work.
The environment is such a relaxing one, which makes me function at my best. When there is no stress on having specific start/stop times, not a specific job to do every single day but depending on the time, day and your mood you can choose what you want to do. This is really good for me as my mood can definitely enhance a specific task that it appeals to. Last week I was involved in putting on a science show to some of the government officials that came to our science centre for the launch of our 'Science of soccer' exhibit. Gotta tell u that was amazing.... :D and everyone loved it too...
So the country is HYPED for the world cup. Flags on all the cars. Everyone wearing their country of support. Its gonna be amazing. The South African soccer team, Bafana Bafana, has had some practice matches which they have won, This is such a rare occurrence and everyone is so excited. Woooooo, less than 2 weeks to world cup. I have 2 SA soccer shirts.
I havent said the best part. Every friday is called football Friday and you can wear a shirt/jacket for any soccer team you want. No work uniform required. YESS!
