PINK FM (+Associated School)

Yesterday was the first day of proper work and because my placement supervisor isn't in Ghana yet, I accompanied Bianca to Pink FM. She got to work in reception and in a movie; whereas I was in Admin watching them work there and occasionally doing shown documents and told what they were talking about and what they are doing – IDK I guess I'm n really feeling it because it's not really my placement. So for a full day I sat and did nothing. After lunch, nothing. Nothing really happened after lunch, people just appeared to not do as much as they did in the morning… so for me it was  just a day of sitting but IDK I'm not going to complain, it'. It's only till Friday. So I returned to the hotel in a terrible mood but well hydrated as on the walk to Kasoa, Mo and Andrew bought some bagged water which was good – except I drink water slowly and I had no means of sealing the bag. Anyway we got back to the hotel and those who were back played cards – as is becoming a custom. Then after a few drinks (all soft) and some one on one meetings with our pastoral career (mine is Andrew), myself, Aaron, Jamee and Andrew and later Bianca played Frisbee. I wasn't very good. Then Drew stepped up the game by adding punishments if you dropped it or threw it badly, such as cartwheels and handstands. I ended up doing a lot of cartwheels.

Then Aaron and Drew decided that they wanted to go swimming so me and Jamee joined them, quite content with just our feet in the pool. Then I am not sure what happened but the next thing I know I was in – fully dressed (I didn't bring a costume because I don't really swim…) It was really refreshing. I didn't think this through. My spontaneous swim meant I didn't bring my towel pool side which lead to our bathroom being drenched! It was insadness!! (A word formed by the words insane and madness meaning epic!)

Anyhow back to today: Today I woke up late, was late for breakfast (and was still the 2^nd person there) and an hour late for work!! But today was better than yesterday because at least I got something to read. I read the Daily Graphic – the best selling newspaper in Ghana since 1950! And another paper but I forget the name. That and I interacted more with the staff – who kept laughing at me… At about 12 we left for lunch at a restaurant near our placement then had to meet the community with the guy from the school – well he called it meeting the community, I called it handing out flyers Bianca called it international marketing. I just wasn't feeling it. It was far too hot and I just wasn't bothered, but I cheered up when I heard 'He lives in you' from the Lion King playing in the background then I saw baby goats so I felt better ;)
