So guess what guys? On the very day that I wrote my last post (Feb. 4), I broke my foot!! I was just walking down the steps in my res and my foot slid so I missed a step… I landed too hard I guess… and the rest is history! It is broken in two spots. Luckily they didn’t have to operate, but I have to be in this cast for 6-12 weeks!! 
But the way I see it, I have no right to be upset because it could very well be that God was preventing something much worse from happening to me by allowing this to happen. So I will consider myself blessed! I’m living in a beautiful city, and I have air in my lungs and beautiful friends to help me through this. They’ve already been amazing; a new SOLmate who I literally just met last week, Ramon, took me to the emergency room along with another new SOLmate, Blendina, and they spent their whole evening with me! And I’ve had SO many visitors in the past few days, I can’t even count! My cast is already almost filled up with signatures and it’s looking great! So I’m really just trying to be positive about it.
Today we went to a soccer game in the new Athlone stadium that they’ll be using for a World Cup game (I think?) It was so much fun! It was the Orlando Pirates (a Joburg team) versus the Santos, a Cape Town team. It ended 0-0 so nothing too dramatic but it was just fun to chill with everybody and get some fresh air because after tomorrow I’m putting myself on house arrest! Tomorrow I’m going to church and then a gospel concert that my church is putting on in the evening, but after that, Monday-Friday, I’ma just be at home chillin! So hopefully the visitors will keep coming.
Well that’s the update for now! Love y’all!
