The last month

I have not been good at keeping up with this thing over the past month! A lot has happened, time kind of flies by...

I went to Bali for a week at the end of September and that was so much fun! My friend Matt is an ETA there, so I visited his school in Denpasar, and one of is students is an Indonesian friend from OU's little sister!

Talk about a small world. A few of the other ETA's were in Bali too, so it was really nice to hang out with everyone. We went to a city called Ubud for the Ubud Readers and Writers Festival which was nice, and then we hung out at Kuta Beach for a little while.

I also cut my hair very short when I was in Bali!





After Bali my friend Danielle came to visit for a week, while she was here we went to this place called Taman Safari 2. It is awesome! We went with 2 of my other friends, and what you do is you drive through this park/zoo in your car, like a safari and see all of the animals. When you are done you park you car and you go to a walking zoo, and there is an area where you can hold baby lions and tigers!!! I also got a kiss from an elephant!


Ramadan, the Muslim holy month, also just finished up. Muslims do not eat or drink during daylight hours (it is much more complicated and religious than that). I will write about my post Ramadan and Idul Fitri (the big day that ends Ramadan) experiences next time.
