Sexy- The Motorbike

Here are some pictures of my new motorbike. Her name is Sexy. Sexy is a Honda Bemo from the 80's. I got her for free ninety-nine and then I had her completely rebuilt. I got to help design her and pick out the colors. Sometimes I would argue with the mechanic that was building the bike because I did not care about her original state but he really seemed too. She gets me to where I need to go which is to and from school, which is her purpose. I hope that the pictures will do her justice.

The Saga of the Rat Continues

Last night after running errands all night and being at school all day I got home. The electricity was off, and I was afraid to walk into my house for fear of being attacked by the ferocious warrior rat. I went and found a flashlight and a candle and sat in the dark eating some cookies figuring out what to do next. One of my errands was buying rat poison. This was the day that the rat was going to meet it's demise. When my roommate got home she had the same thought. We moved the rat traps inside. We baited them with fish, bread, and peanut butter covered in rat poison. We then sprinkled more poison around most of the house. Now we are waiting for the day when we can pull a grandpa and drown the rat.

The Saga of the Rat

I have a rat in the house. The other day I made cinnamon rolls to take to school. I let them rise over night so that they could be extra big and delicious. I woke up the next morning to put them in the oven and there were bite marks all over the cinnamon rolls. The rat decided that he really wanted to eat cinnamon rolls too. Earlier we tried to kill him with poison but he still prevails. My roommate bought live traps today and a big bucket. We set the traps with fish and peanut butter. Once we catch him we are going to pull a grandpa and drown him in a bucket. Hopefully we will catch him soon so that he will not keep eating our food. I will keep you posted on what happens.

Playdough

Yesterday I made playdough. It was a highlight of my week.

Tiga months

I know I am pretty much fluent. Tiga means 3. That means that I have been here for 3 months, can you believe it? It has been going by extremely quick. A lot has happened since then too. I have moved to a new house, finished the first quarter and have parent teacher conferences tomorrow, and I have taken the volunteer position of being the children's coordinator at church. I have been to Lombak for vacation which was great. I have gotten a motorbike that is being made from scratch kind of. The color is going to be copper brown/burnt orange with white accents. It is going to be off the chain. That is about all that I know about it though, it is going to get me up and down the hill to school (which is what I need). There is a lot more that has happened but those are the highlights. I would hate to bore you with more details. Oh! another highlight. I am going to make play dough later tonight. Oo Oo
