i love you, standing all alone in a black coat

today was a much, much better day. i woke up late so i could rest a little more, so i could heal. i did. i arose refreshed and the sky was blue. my mind felt more clear and my mood was positive. i think i'm just a little blue the last couple of days. if anything i'll write a song about it. we had a meeting with many donors today, along with other members of the GA. so i trucked it to the school we were meeting at. once i arrived to the school, i trucked it to the actual meeting place. which was not a school. i'm the worst direction follower actually. oh well. finally got to the real spot and momo spoke. al spoke. the mayor of ramla spoke. answered some challenging questions from the peanut gallery with honest dignity. i always see posters of this guy all over ramla. you guys don't understand. if you have seen the princess bride, its the "inconceiveable!" guy. but he doesn't really look like that in person. then i spoke. then alice and i took 3 GA peeps each to the tv station to see what we do. i met a couple of nice girls (one in particular, sheni a political science major at tel aviv U said she knows all the great second hand stores and will tell me where to find some great stuff) and a couple annoying men from the states. we got to the TV station and karen said some words and then we retreated to the cabs, which were late, that took us to the shuk where we ate lunch at a falafel place. wow, that was the worst run-on sentence in history. sorry. i'm kind of in a hurry to get to tel aviv to meet my mom. she informs me that she's met some musicians and they jammed last night. ohhhh mom. lessons for today: think outwardly. thank about possibly organizing a non-mission mission to africa. asking donors. figure that out. fuck. ok. i'm going now.

love,

sally

Masai Mara is an incredible place, make sure you take a sunrise safari.
