Experiencing Sickness in Kenya... again

KENYA | Friday, 19 December 2008 | Views [645] | Comments [2]

There is seriously nothing like getting sick in a foreign country... especially when you are by yourself! On top of the tonsilitis i have managed to contract some sort of stomach bug that allows me to spontaneously vomit. It is certainly something that everyone should experience!

So tomorrow i have to brave a crowded matatau for a few hours in the hope of getting to Kisumu alive and not covered in vomit... or worse. On the upside once i get there i wont be feeling as lonely or as sorry for myself as i have been the last few days! And i get to see Princess Tina (as she is to be known from this point)! I am very excited about that!

This afternoon after managing to even vomit up the medicine designed to keep stuff down i had a moment. I miss my mum and my sister and i especially miss my nieces! I couldnt hold the tears in but i actually felt better afterwards. I wanted to ring everyone i know but i figured that most people would be asleep so i have resolved to make a few calls tomorrow!~

My diet has consisted, for the most part of gastrostop, anti malaria medication and vegemite. Although yesterday after not being able to stomach the vegemite off a spoon anymore i braved it to the local shops where i bought some bread and bananas (or banananananas in case amber is reading this~) mind you i havent been able to hold anything down today so it was a waste of money!

Since being sick i have managed to fit in some reading... i have finished all of the books i bought over with me and it has only just been a week! Worst of all i finished Twilight last night and seriously didnt know what to do with myself! It feels like i cant breath because my lust for the second book is killing me!! Luckily Jeff sent it in the post for me yesterday.... when it will get here i do not know. The suspence is making me crazy! I have been dreaming about vampires and trying to image what the movie is like!! I was so desperate i tried to read it again but its not helped any so far!!

I posted some pictures of the place i have been staying just now, it is a lovely facility and i am lucky to be here even if i am by myself! The OAP group staying in mutumbu came by t visit yesterday and i think that they may have been jealous... but i am jealous mostly because i dont have anyone around to talk to at the moment.

Next week when i am better it will be ok because i will be able to play with all of the kids... but my germs arent to be spread though the main house or i think i would be murdered by the sisters who look after the kids! Understandable i suppose! Any way i am alive... not well but i am alive and thats always a positive! I am missing everyone so badly and if anyone wants to ring and say hi please do so my kenyan number is +254715329572. My optus number still doesnt work here but i would love to hear from you all!

Blink blink blink ~

Love love love ~

And my love for everyone else xoxoxox

oh my god, I would have died if I didn't have the second Twilight book straight after finishing the first - the suspense must be killing you! All I can say about the movie - the first time I saw it, It was pretty good. I was happy. Edward is perfect, Bella is perfect, the storyline was changed a little but it was manageable. The second time I saw it - it was so so so so much better! You gotta download the soundtrack, there's some really cool songs. I miss you love. I had a moment today where I needed Veti-time, but I'm glad to see you're doing pretty well considering haha. Keep up the journal entries!
xxx.
