Time Is Winding Down

This trip confirms that my blogging and journaling skills are poor but oh well that’s life. I guess I feel I do enough writing in school that the last thing I want to do is write more. That’s a poor attitude especially when there's people who are genuinely interested in my experiences here. Now if I would stop trying to justify my bad habits I could tell you a bit about what been happening to me. Life is still being good to me here with no major mishaps stopping me from enjoying the wonderful Ugandan culture. A lot has happened since my last blog including trips to new parts of Uganda; I've actually been to all areas except the Northern part where they claim its to dangerous for us (not so sure about that). My relationships with my USP and Ugandan friends have deepened which will make it harder to leave. No matter how exciting it will be to see familiar faces back home I know its going to be difficult to say good bye to this place. I'm well over culture shock which took place in the first few weeks. That doesn't of course mean I know everything about this culture but I do understand it better. Also, now that I am accustomed to this culture it means I will no doubt have to face reverse culture shock, which apparently isn't to fun to deal with. I have been blessed with many new ideas and teachings here which for lack of a better word have changed my "worldview" and deepened my faith. Some of these changes may not allow me to jive with the culture I was once so comfortable with though I guess we will just have to wait and see. Time is winding down and this of course is inevitable what is important now is how use the precious time I have left while I am here.
