Update

Sorry it has been a few weeks since the last blog.  I have done many things since then but have not written everything down.  In a nutshell I will explain some of the stuff I have been up to: House 21 Family Dinner, birthdays, learning how to cook, volunteering at the township school, wild nights of going out, working out at the gym, a weekend in Johannesburg, wait! Did I mention going out? Oh and one other thing I almost forgot, classes finally started.  I am loving the South African lifestyle and cannot believe I have already been here over a month.  We are starting to get a set schedule for each week.  Monday night some of us attend Trivia at a bar near by.  Trivia has become a huge competition between the houses.  We are so close to beating the boys!  Tuesday and Wednesday we do whatever.  Us girls have started taking turns with cooking dinner.  This is really nice because you do not have to worry about cooking every night.  One of the exchange students from Canada tried out for the varsity basketball team at our University and made the team.  This past week we went and watched him play.  Actually let me say we were his support team.  Every time he would go in for some playing time we would go nuts with cheering; I felt like a proud parent.  Thursday nights are hopping at the square so we cannot seem to pass up the fun. Fridays have become Braai-day Friday and Saturday is our clubbing night.
