16/3 Wednesday
Ive been here for 2 weeks today. And I FINALLY got to meet the manager of this project. I couldnt sleep at all last night. Salome told me to lock the door in case Tapida would come back and try to steal things. And seriously, she is a witch, which in this case should not be forgotten. Because of that. This story (which I have been considering not to tell you) may seem crazy.... But. I woke up to a noise, after finally fallen asleep at around 3ish. Strange thing was, it was totally quiet. However, my whole body was cramping like never before, and I thought that I could see someone standing in the end of my bed. It went on for prob abt 15 sek before I mananged to 'break' myself out of that paralyze. Seriously..? Am I an offer for witch craft??? Gaaahhh! This is just getting worse.
(Im telling you just because it didnt happen again, so dont worry, but I was freaked out at the time)

Gizelle actually called me this morning to explain why Tapida ran away. She told me the argument was abt Tapida stealing a top from my bag (which I actually didnt even notice). but she said the reason she left was because she had found someone else to work for. And honestly, if that really wa the case, I could understand that. Although Salome is very nice to me, she is really treating Tapida like a slave...
'
Life without Tapida is very different. Didnt get breakie until 11am this morning, after eating 2 emergancy biscuits. She promised to have lunch ready at 13. It was ready at 14.30. I started work 14.45, so I had to rush. Appreciated Tapidas food a lot more haha. Ugali (an traditional african dish pretty much consisting of wheat flour and water boild together as a thick porrige) (tasting nada) and fish. I really dont like the days I get fish, since fish here pretty much consist of a piece of fried skin and bones, with fins, eyes and everything still on it. uuuaaa! But, what can I do, other than pretened I like it. Smile, and swallow with water.

The manager came 2 hrs late, so I wouldnt have had to rush lunch. Although, it was probably better to just have it done. It annoys me how little they get done here. I could have done whatever they have been trying to do for half a year in the first two weeks Ive been here. its a time killer.
At least, me and Ahmed (english speaker) planned to meet at 10 am tomw to start applying for funding at different companies. Well see how that goes!
