Victory is Sweet, even from Africa!

Yesterday after class, ESPN replayed the Vikings v. Packers game!! I didn't know the result of the game, so it seemed like it was happening as I watched it. My friend Janel, her host brother, and I went to a bar/restaurant here that has a lot of tvs, and they changed the channel for us so that we could watch the game. Watching soccer makes me sad, there's just something missing, so it was a nice change to watch football, and it was a great game! Farvre was looking good in purple ;) As I waited for a cab afterwards, a little boy came up to me and asked for money or food. There were about 6 other boys there too, they all looked like they were no older than 9 or 10. It's so sad to see all of the kids living on the streets, and there are quite a few of them. They look like they really need someone to care for them. Some of them do have homes or have been placed in homes, but they go back to the streets because they think that it is the best way of life for them as they get money and food from a lot of people. It's hard to look at them and not give them anything, but it is just encouraging the continuation of this lifestyle.
