Week Four- GTOWN

Went to this film showing where they show short films from around the world. Some of them were boring, others were funny, or shocking. I brought my bottle of wine, cracked that shit, shared. Hit up the Rat, a bar, took some tequila shots. Got a little tipsy, girl poured a drink on my head by accident, I told it to her like it is, but didn’t punch her in the face. Woke up, went to Anthro where we meditated for the beginning. AWSOME. Went to Mad Hatters and had avo and bacon on toast. Stopped at the Kodak shop where they informed me all the pics on my memory card were corrupt. All last weekend gone. Then there was shop therapy. Got a pair of kickass earrings and FINALLY found a rain jacket, in the childrens section. Watched an episode of Lost, got the WEB ACCESS DENIED page. Went out for ice cream. We all pitched in and got one of the beggars an ice cream cone to make ourselves feel like we are giving people, who forgot to sign up to read to the blind. Smoked the hookah, watched some clips from Planet Earth.

LAter in the week went to the old Gaol for an open mic night. Nouria was supposed to play her uke, some boys stole her fame, overpowered the mic with their sad attempts to sing together. Got wasted. Lots of shots and such during the week. Lots of laying out in the gardens and reading or such. Hit up the hookah bar Thursday morning before classes, awesome little place, very laid back, lots of casual couches. Friday smoked hookah all day after classes, went to drum circle in the gardens, almost fainted in Nandos, this semi lookin chain joint. Homework is minimal. Kafka is next to be read. Then up to date we are, today, i went sky diving. and it was awesome. Getting ready and being in the plane didn't even faze me, there was never a knot in my stomach, or bad thought in my head. It was so weird to be relaxed, but it made the experience that much more enjoyable. When i was free falling it was like the craziest view of the world, like every things outline is changing shapes nonchalantly, getting closer, and you don't feel like your falling. Its like this lens eye view, of the world happening so fast. Then its just the African veld, the trees and rolling hills, thoughts of infinite tales. You just feel like you being, like wind is hitting you. I feel very alive, very accomplished, very ready to do many more things.
SInce i've been here i feel like everyday is better than the last, like the sun brings endless happiness. I relish in it. I love eating nonprocessed foods too.
I got a pineapple at the pineapple farm for 3R aka 30 cents, i tried to chop it open wiht the butter knife i had, didn't work. So i picked at the top some from what i had cut off. Left it on my desk for a day or two. then there were flies all over it and i threw it out my window. I could really go for some pineapple right now.
