Today was a good day, because I got to sleep in since Wednesdays are our study days for my online Nursing Research class. I talked to my Dad this morning and texted Paul, which both made me really happy. By the time it was lunch, I was starving because I had skipped breakfast and tea time. :) After lunch, I worked on some more homework for my Ethics class, but I got to sit out and enjoy the sun at the same time...and the monkeys...running around campus! 
It was a beautiful day today, because it rained all day yesterday! And I do mean allllll dayyyy!! But it was nice. Brianna and I actually went for a run in it down to the closest restaurant. It was definitely an adventure!!

It was definitely an adventure!! Before dinner the girls and I decided to go for a walk into the game reserve. Little did we know what we had in store for us..... So we're just walking and enjoying the beautiful view and the forest/jungle after it had just rained when all of a sudden we turn the corner and we see......TWO zebra!! One was an adult zebra and the other was a baby!! We couldn't stop taking pict
ures!! :) And then out of nowhere about 5 or so minutes later another zebra comes jotti
ng up!! So we take even more pictures!! :) And then guess what?!?....Yep! Another one!! So no biggie, but yeah I saw FOUR zebra today and I got like 15ft. close to them!! It was amazing!! So after taking s many pictures of the unexpected zebra we saw :) we started to wal back and then all of a sudden ou
r path was blocked by like 10 or so monkeys!! It was crazy!! Eventually we made our way back to AE and had dinner and then I had my first Zulu class. The language is one of the 11 official languages of Africa. It is so hard to learn and speaking it is even more difficult! There are all these clicks and stuff but it's fun..and funny....trying! I'm gonna go to bed now, becuase we have our first day of clinical tomorrow! I'm really excited! Until next time....
