Oranges for days

My parents have given me my third installment of oranges from their farm. My baba came home after dark today, bringing a big bag of oranges that don't actually get past the green color on the outside. I have been told that after the rainy season, they will actually turn orange when ripe.

I'm still working on the last bag they gave me. It's time to double up and/or give some to my fellow trainees.

This afternoon we learned how to make vertical gardens out of large bags, similar to those that are used to sell rice in large quantities. I'm pretty excited to use this skill, and we all received bags to build these gardens with our homestay families. We also need to prepare two holes for fruit-bearing saplings we will be receiving to plant at our homes as well.

More hot days and dusty winds.

Nights so dark in my room that you see the same thing whether your eyes are open or closed. Oh perfect night.
