I see your Range Rover and I'll raise you a Nissan Micra





Today, Ellen, Lauren, and I were asked to be models for an advertisement. Too bad the shoot is this weekend and we'll be away. I could've been an American South African model. haha

I officially didn't get the job at Sinai. They started out with 2 possible new grad positions, but it was reduced to 1 and that spot was filled. Back to square 1. I'll deal with it when I get home though. It'll all work out, I'm sure.

This past weekend Ellen, Lauren, me, and our Duke (Duke sucks) med student friend, Channa, went to a game reserve in Hluhluwe (pronounced shlushlooway). We saw lots of great animals! Giraffes and Zebra are my favorite. We conquered the park on our own in our little Nissan Micra without paying $85 for a tour. I was very proud of us. It was so wonderful to get out of the city and be where we could see the stars.Every giraffe's spots are different, like fingerprints.

Hippos are the number one killer in Africa. I thought they were cute and cuddly.

I've been nicknamed Elli-phant. I'm a fat kid at heart.

This is an inyala. It's really pretty.
