This morning, my father was interviewed on CBC Radio. They did the interview over the phone. My father sat in the living room to do the interview. I closed my bedroom door and sat on my bed listening to the interview over my radio-clock, because it was just so damn cool to hear my dad on national radio. He's famous!

Also today, I handed in the last of my assignments and attended the last of my classes before the second round of practice teaching. Now I have nothing left but to focus on getting ready for Kenya.

Up next: Epic Shopping Trip. I have two-column list of things to buy for Kenya. I anticipate spending in the neighbourhood of $400 -- all of it utterly necessary expendature and therefore will not be accompanied by the usual spending-guilt.

YEAH HELL! THREE DAYS!

That's very cool. What was he interviewed for? (i.e. which show? what topic?) I was listening to CBC One all morning.

I forget the name of the show -- he was interviewed at about 7:20am about Nipissing University Faculty of Education's international practice teaching options.

Did you happen to hear it?

I am leaving in TWO days, now!

I won't be able to post updates from there, I'm sorry to say. We're staying out in the Masai Mara in a compound composed of tents on wooden platforms surrounded by an electrical fence to keep the elephants out at night.

I will have LOTS to say when I get back, though, I promise you that!
