Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well. Shout out to my home state Illinois! I hope those affected by the tornadoes are doing well and have began the healing and recovery process.
Today we are under house arrest and on standby until Sunday for possibility of evacuation. Today the Mozambican municipal elections are being held so there is some tension amongst the country. We are pretty safe in Namaacha but you never know. The world is a crazy place. I am not a fan of wikipedia but here is some info on the political parties (you can do further research if interested :)). I finally received my package my parents sent me about 5-6 weeks ago. It had oreos, which ended up being perfect timing since I am stuck at home today. I took more capulanas to the modista yesterday! I am getting a tunic and dress done. I can't wait to see how they turn out.
We are being sworn in as volunteers in 13 days!!!!! Time is flying. We all are packing our things up to be shipped out this weekend. It is going to be bittersweet. I love my family here and am going to miss them a lot. I am also having some anxiety about being apart from everyone but also about starting my actual service. We are having a big celebration next weekend with our families!
We started teaching this week. I taught my first chemistry on Monday. I was super nervous but ended up having fun. I introduced the kids to acids and we ended up juggling acidic fruit and doing an acid crossword puzzle I had made. I teach again on Friday and then again next Tuesday.
