Hell Week

So since I've graduated, I thought that I moved past the era of hell week. Because you know, I'm not learning...but boy was I wrong. Being in Peace Corps has been so difficult. Pre-Service Training is long and arduous. I was to wake-up at like 6am just to arrive at school at 7:30am to be in class from then until 5pm. Then I bike home, shower, get ready for the next, talk to family, and pass out. And like I was surviving, vibing with the difficulties, but now I'm actually dying. I wake up at 5am, go to school and prep for class, teach/learn, listen to higher-ups, then go home, prep for class again, and go to bed. Like, the list of things I'm doing isn't long, but the amount of work they want me to do and the amount of time I have is impossible. And I can't wake up any earlier or go to bed any later... I just have to suffer. So it's been rough, and you know my no coffee policy, so I've just been dealing, but barely. I've fallen asleep so much in class, which I don't like, but it can't be helped. If I'm tired, I'm tired... I can't push past my limits this time.

But these kids made it worth it :))

Any who, I had a sleep-over...and I hate to say it, but Naoni has been right. I'm a wild sleeper. I do hog the bed, and lay across people. My friend said at one point she woke up with my arm on her face, and another time my butt was poking out, pushing her off the bed. I won't apologize for past actions against people I have tortured while asleep, but I'll try to be more aware of it for the next victims. Ohhhhhh, and I got in trouble about my piercings. Kinda sucked, now I only have 4 piercings. I'm like a refurbished model of myself. Me no likey. Finally, I had some boy drama which was annoying, but that's also over, lol. So right now I feel just empty since a lot of the stress that's been going on has finally come to an end. All of my stress and anxiety isn't pointed towards anything, and now it's just generalized. I wanna just get another piercing, but I can't satisfy my piercing addiction and I low-key feel like a dope fiend, lol.

***Per usual, here are some pics of my week including some pics of my host-family's puppy, my community kids, rice field views from my classroom (it's harvest season, so they're drying it out), my students for the past week, and my friend's b-day and the night sky.

Also, this calf was born this week, this is the first time I saw him zooming and running (in this video he's only 3 days old)
