Fight the Power!! ;)

Three days of class in!! It's hard to get back into having class like in high school. We have to be at the school at 8:30 and then we have a two hour class, tea break, then a two hour class, then lunch, and then 1 more two hour class, which ends at about 3:30. Today we got to skip the last class period though! We had 4 hours of Swahili class today, it was pretty intense, but I feel like I am getting better at speaking it. I try to talk to my host mom in Kiswahili, but I mess up a lot! Last night, I went to church with the host family of one of my friends here. Church here is really fun! Everyone is so happy to be there and they have a lot of energy. Afterwards, on the drive home, we got pulled over by the police, which was kind of scary b/c we had just been talking about how the police sometimes pull people over and try to bribe them into giving them money, otherwise the police will take them to jail. The officer talked to the host dad for like a minute and then we were on our way, so everything was fine. The host mom thought it was so funny that we were scared, but the police here do look kind of scary, some of them walk around with their guns out even.
