More settling in

I worked alone in the office yesterday. My oficemates are at a meeting for the rest of the week. So, I felt like I was able to do more to organize myself and get settled. I also completed my vote from abroad form (yay!) I hope everything goes well. I still need to mail the form.

I am learning that I am not as patient as everyone seems to think I am (sometimes I even think I'm a pretty patient person). So I am working on my patience. I met with Prof Khoza Wednesday afternoon and went over my key informant interview questions. She gave me some more suggestions for organizations and I worked on that last night. Also, my housemates and I celebrated Mikal's (1 of the German rommtes) birthday. Two girls from UNIVEN joined us. The Professor teased us about eating too much sugar (he does this often) but he eventually joined us. I think having roommates will help me become more independent quicker.

I moved pictures form my digital camera to my external harddrive this morning. I want to post pictures on the blog...if that doesn't work, I will post to an album in snpafish and post the link.

Today, I am reading the master students' proposals. Will try to read and code some articles. Also, I am going on a run/jog with Sonali, Prof Khoza's niece.

take care
