it's all just fun and games

Since I love weighing babies/ making sure that they are well nourished, I'm in the maternity everyday. This means that I find myself in the back birthing room quite often. I must admit that I enjoy watching child birth- not in a sick twisted way that usually accompanies a statement like that. It's kind of like watching a game (basketball, football, etc.) You're rooting for the object- in this case a baby not a ball- to go through the designated area. Not too different from a hoop or a goal post. The midwives look at me a bit sideways when I actually start chanting go, go, go, GO in escalation! Or when I cry wooohooo! when the babe makes it safley in the catcher's mitt. I like to think that I'm only encouraging the mom to be aggressive...b-e a-g-g-r-e-s-s-i-v-e. At least it will be a good story for her to tell the kids. I was in labor with you for 5 whole days, in the blazing heat, while a crazed American screamed nonsense at my vagina for you to come out...  Like ...

After you put your hands on someone you automatically lose in my book. So when this situation of violence occurred at my site, with my friends I was completely taken aback. I was hanging out at my village pharmacy one evening while the Cecile (the pharmacist) and Fati is getting ready to go home. After Cecile locks the door she hands Fati a bag of ochre. The guard of my health clinic come runn...

Okay, I have to admit that I haven’t been updating because when I got back from the States I was in a bit of denial about being back in Burkina. (I had an amazing time in the States by the way thanks rents) As of now I have 7 more months in country. I’m looking forward to leaving Burkina to start my next adventure. I am pleased to see the progress I’ve made while being here. I spent the last 5 weeks at site without leaving once! Personal record. Below are a couple of entries that I wrote while during that time. 2/27 Hot season is practically here. Ahhhh You know it’s approaching when the heat wakes you up around 5am. This morning I woke up to heat miser singeing. I grumbled around my house cursing the heat while I got ready start my day.   Sweat trickled down my chest from the slightest exertion. I started to make the usual porridge that I have every morning but the thought of turning on my stove literally made me want to kick a baby. I settled for granola and an or...
