Uh, because I hate the winter?? That's why.

So today I was sitting in the WARC computer room "working" on my history paper and Waly comes in to tell me that there was an interview crew at WARC and he was interviewing our director, but also wanted to interview some students-and since Zach and I were the only two there, we were chosen. They conducted the interview in French, English and tried (very unsuccussfully) to communicate to us in Wolof, but that didn't happen. Anyway, they kept asking us why we came here and expected a long heartfelt reason like 'I want to change the world' or something. I managed to sputter out something about the education system and how it's important to have an educated young population in order to grow as a society and that that was the reason why I was here, when in reality, I just wanted to see some sweet animals =/

Watch for me in the Dakar Times, which is in Paris, NYC and Dakar =)

In other news, my phonetics class was a joke and, as it turns out, should not be a really class! Let's hope UM shows some sympathy on us and gives us credit anyways (awkward finger bite).

See this photo? This is the reason I came here, haha!
