Bonjour Benin!: A Week in the Life
http://glennadenise.blogspot.com/2010/10/week-in-life.html
I live in Benin, West Africa. i am a teacher. Read on. Saturday, October 30, 2010. A Week in the Life. October 24, 2010. A Week in the Life. So I know that I have described a typical day for me here in Benin, but recently I have decided that there is not so much a typical day for me here so much as a typical week. So I decided to write about the week, day by day and maybe that will give you a better idea about my life here. Especially when I’m offering to go and pick it up for them. Corps de la Paix.

What do you do when a girl is crying in the dark on your porch? What if you don’t speak a common language? Give her back a gentle, hopefully commiserative and consoling, rub? Get her a peppermint stick? Mostly I sneak her food, usually something tasty with some protein in it. August 3, 2010. Hopefully the pictures upload with this…. Thing that we ...

I live in Benin, West Africa. i am a teacher. Read on. Monday, April 26, 2010. Many Things and Some Future Plans. Although there is nothing wrong with my tooth anymore, there is something very mysterious going on with my back. It keeps waking me up in middle of the night. This is why I have the internet and the time to write on a Monday morning, when I should by all rights be in class. I do hate missing class! I can't believe that the school year is almost over! All of us here are very, very excited abou...

Is the Super Bowl this weekend? Or was it last? Why do I care? Who had the best commercial? I have no idea why I need to know this, but it suddenly occurred to me that I want to know- and I also have an intense craving for cream cheese bean dip.

It has started again! Start school and then have the training. I’m sure I will hate that kind of training when I have to go to the same kind of thing in the US, but here if I can get out of it by saying the French is too hard (which it isn’t, even if it is difficult to keep it up for 6 hours) I will!
