Even more bullet-point tales
May. 20th, 2009 10:02 am* Bob gave me his camera, yay! So I have something as long as I'm here at least and can take more photos. Still I miss my own cam *sigh*.
* I started to drink black tea here o.O
* Nairobians are very touchy-feely.
* Did my first interview yesterday! It was a hawker, he sells sweets and cigarettes to people passing by (mobile workplace). Had quite some interesting things to tell.
* Very, very nice crossdressing ad, seen in arcadijs journal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFJnS_KXOVc
Watch it, it's worth it :)
* For a change it's really nice to be in a country where being thin is NOT the beauty standard. Actually, thin girls are really trying to gain some weight here (not to unhealthy amounts, but to 'looking female' amounts).
* I miss fast an reliable internet. Especially reliable. I wouldn't mind to wait for pages to load - as long *as* they load. I hate the proxy settings here. I've seen an uncountable amount of proxy doesn't allow this or that pages in the last week. And this while needing to do research? Bah!
* @cos: We've not been at crescent island, unfortunatly. We wanted to go, but in the end it was not easly possible for various reasons. But it was nice at the lake anyway :)
* I am amazed at my own vocabulary o.O At least I am often asked for words here or know the answer, if someone is randomly asking :)
* We've been to an expensive indian restaurand yesterday evening (were invited by our professor). Expensive meant a main dish was 5 Euro. It was very high class and the meals delicious (but a bit too hot for my taste, even if we requested mild).
Gotta go again!
