Back to the blog and see that Matt has done an entry all about me, myself and I. Touched, I am, truly touched. What's new at my end..... Oh yes - Im STRANDED in Spain! Jolly dee, hip hip hurrah. Just posted off my passport for a tanz visa (after sending a torrent of threatening emails to volunteers lagging behind in the application process, I felt like it would be hypocritcal not to get on it myself) and am sitting here on the other side of the channel (plus a few miles) crossing my fingers for a swift return of said document. Though I love Madrid, Im getting the outa-africa blues, plus its about time I started eating less tapas and beer and more plantane. I already gained a stone....... So, let's all hope that the Tanzanian embassy is feeling particularly efficient over the next few days.
And Matt, no more waiting around! You're meant to be the organised one!
I bring you a new and exciting topic: MUSIC! I can promise you now, dear volunteers, that even the most hard core hater of RnB will come back from the trip CONVERTED to usher, nigerian rap, neyo and Boyz2men. Yeh, that is spelt with a Z. Even you heavy metal fans will not escape. After a night or two in the infamous moshi clubs (that's right, there are discos) you're all gona be loving it. The best bit? The lyrics are so profound - it's just like poetry. In the words of Akon:
'I see you in the club. You're gettin' down. I want to get with you.'
I don't know about you, but I'm feeling that.
Got to be off, Chris Brown is calling.
How for now
