My stage has both health volunteers and agribusiness
volunteers. We occasionally share trainings but for the most part our trainings
are in separate sites on different topics. Our site announcements were also
going to be separate. However the AG trainees decided to have a “posting hat”
(like the sorting hat from Harry Potter) and we health volunteers just had to
be involved. The different regions were even posted around the room so you
could go there and join others from your region after your post was announced.
Somebody even wrote up a fantastic sorting hat song.
I am pleased to announce (if you haven’t seen it already)
that I will be posted in Nyambaka, Adamoua/Adamawa. This is the same site I
visited, which is not typical. I’m pretty sure I am the only volunteer from my
stage to be posted at the same site they visited. To say I am thrilled would be
an understatement. I would have been happy with any region of Cameroon but I
honestly feel my personality will work very well with the culture in Nyambaka plus
I’m so excited to learn Fulfulde among many other things that I think will suit
me well in the area. Knowing where I will be living and what my house will look
like makes the next two years seem even more real and exciting. I also know
that I have some super awesome people who will be living in my region, both
from my stage and earlier stages.
Still no Ebola in Cameroon fyi. (Yes, that does mean there
have been more cases of Ebola in the US than in Cameroon.) My personal health
has been good overall. I am currently fighting a cold. As a result I did have
an episode yesterday and one today. But I’m going to try and not make it three
days in a row tomorrow. I bid you all good night!
Three thoughts:
1.
I know my post!!!!!
2.
Nyambaka!!!!!
3.
I would much rather sleep than do my homework.
