Oops!

So I almost fell in a giant hole today. Apparently it's OK here to dig up holes all over the place and just leave them open. It's like they are digging up the entire town. There's quite a few of these holes from our house to the building where we have classes. One in particular only has a small piece of ground to walk on next to. This small piece to walk on is made entirely of dirt, and it was raining today. So there is this pile of mud and a hole. Ali went over first and kind of slipped but made it to the other side OK. I went after her, and in the middle I started to slip. Luckily, Ali grabbed my arm and I just slammed into the ground. Causing me to punch a wall, and cover the entire bottom half of my pants in mud. It was pointed out in class too, because it's sort of obvious I didn't throw these pants on this way this morning. But it's OK, it's easier not to be embarrassed here, somehow.
The latest thing on the interesting, yet delicious, menu: rice boiled in milk and sugar, topped off with cocoa powder. Maybe I won't lose weight while I'm here after all.
