So, I thought I had an ear infection. My ears hurt, they
felt like they were full of water, and I couldn’t hear well. I called the Peace
Corps Medical Officer and he told me to come to Kigali to look. I left training
Tuesday around 2 PM and got to the medical office around 4 PM, where I waited
for 30 minutes. Turns out, I didn’t have an ear infection, just a lot of
buildup and was given some ear drops. BUT because it was getting late and the
doctor wanted to check again on Wednesday, I got to stay overnight in Kigali!
It was amazing. I had a hot shower, I ordered some pizza, and I watched a ton
of America’s Next Top Model. Then, because no one could take me back to
training until noon on Wednesday, I was able to order more food (chicken strips,
fries, and honey mustard this time) and talk to some of the lovely volunteers
who are about to finish their service. It was worth the ear pain.
In other news, we had a small Halloween get together and
heard from the amazing US Ambassador to Rwanda!
