I have managed to fall ill to either food poisoning or some type of stomach virus. It has put a major damper on my weekend as I have been in bed for most of the past day and a half.
All’s not bad news though! Friday was fantastic; we got off work early to have our program midterm lunch. Nikki and Gill took us to the Gaborone Game Reserve to have a delicious lunch of sausage, steak, potato salad, beans, and fresh greens salad. We reported to everyone how our internship has been going and then enjoyed each other’s company and ate. Now that we are all working, times when the entire group are together is rare.
Friday evening was also a success. We were FINALLY able to do laundry here at the school (I had previously hand washed a few necessities) and in the evening we went to the theatre to see X-Men First Class. For those of you who don’t know, I am OBSESSED with the X-Men movies, and this one surpassed my expectations. Basically, this movie is the prequel to all the other X-Men movies and the story focuses on the young Professor Xavier and Magneto. In itself it was a good movie, but having seen all the other movies made it even better because there were tons of subtle references to what is going to happen in the subsequent movies. Because all of us liked we, we began to load all the other X-Men movies to watch in the evenings.
Because I still feel nauseous and without energy, I will probably not go into work tomorrow. Hopefully this is just some 24-hour thing and I’ll feel better tomorrow. My fingers are crossed!
