Ok I will start with medical. I like it very much I have seen a lot of kids being born : ) I got to hold a baby today it was so small. I find it hard sometimes because the nurses speak in swahili but i did manage to figure out that they were talking about preclampsia and the dosage protocole so i was proud. Tomorrow I think i will work in the HIV clinic. So now on to my story. I finished work tuesday at 1 so i caught up with corita my roomie at 3 and we went to a dessert store and i saw lays potatoe chips and since i miss food I bought a bag. We then left and started walking down the street to the bus station when a guy got up and tried to grab my food, I jumped back and he kept coming at me so corita and I grabed eachother and ran through the traffic missing cars barely. I saw him following us through the traffic so when a bus covered us we ran up a side street through a market. I have never been chased before it wasnt fun, I was so ready to crotch kick. I guess I had a good flavour. Note to the robber you need to be faster if you want my chips . Anyway that was the worst thing that has happened to me here so I think i got off easy. This weekend is our dirty weekend where all the volunteers get together and paint a school house which should be fun. As of tomorrow I will be home in one week. I will miss the kids and the patients. Note that the hospitals are very different and I dont want to touch things, but all in all I am happy there.
