Aish, does anyone read this blog anymore? I hope not, otherwise you would have read the same thing a billion times. For those dear friends that still read this blog, I mostly do my contacting by facebook, then MySpace...oh and email. Hmm, a little update; Today I finished my last day with students in my first year of teaching. How was it you ask? WELL, I did enjoy it, and then...I did not enjoy it. How else can you describe spending eight hours a day with teenagers who don't want to be where they are, and see you as the "Man, gettin' them down". I guess the only real way to tell whether I liked teaching is to see where I will be working next. Probably at a school, albeit, not this one...it's an hour away from my home, and therefore a drive of about 600 miles/week. Gas is REDICULOUS! Me and Eloise are heading out to Kenya in two weeks, from today! Very exciting, I havn't been in five years, and Eloise has never been. Pray for us

Summer time is great! Except that I am still in school. Two classes left--America during the World Wars and Reformation Europe (Both great classes and professors). Anyhow, still as poor as I was last time that I wrote, well perhaps even poorer...eh, that's okay. Finding a teaching job is tough, I may work at Starbucks for the rest of the summer and and Fall, and perhaps even in the Spring, depending on whether I get a teaching job or not. Then, after five years I will return to the mother-land. Yes, Kenya has been calling my name, and I am finally going to answer. Oh my beloved Mombasa. Hope you guys are doing well.

cheers
