Lots!

To begin, on Saturday I went with 5 friends to the Oxford Union Ball. It was fabulous to be outside of the college/libraries/African Studies Centre! And I so enjoy dressing up :) We had a great time exploring the old chambers and lounges. Plus it was 50s themed - complete with an American Diner!

On Sunday the Chihuahuas had another nail-biter! We lost 1-2 (I scored!) though we could have won except our 11th player had to leave after 30 minutes. Still, a great afternoon spent in the (relatively) good weather, with teammates. I so enjoy it! Our last game of the term is this Sunday against one of the biggest colleges - St John's.

Tuesday Luigi - a fellow Rotary Scholar - and I spoke at my host club of Bicester! I loved being able to share more about myself and to specifically thank the members, especially John and Gyll. The whole club is always so welcoming and engaging!! I feel more and more a part of the group every time I visit. And I will have lots more to report after Uganda!

Regarding my upcoming trip, everything seems to be falling into place! Yay God! I am just so excited, and another professor told me again today how much I will enjoy researching in Kabale - beautiful, mild weather, open informants. I am writing my interview questions this weekend - please pray for me to find the best wording.

I love you family!
