Edit: for Tabaski, they kill sheep not goats. Sheep.
I am done. (A bana in Bambara). My ISP is finished, bound and laminated. My presentation went pretty well, and now the semester is basically over. Today and tomorrow, most of the people in the group are leaving to go back to the U.S., and my friend Amanda and I will be pretty much the only ones left in Bamako.
Things I want to do before I leave:
Learn to make tiga dege na (peanut sauce with vegetables)
See more music
Visit a women’s cooperative just outside the city that is supposed to be really cool
Visit my older sister in the Hippodrome, a neighborhood on the other side of the river
Bring my extra fabric to the tailor to get some more clothing made
Get tattouage, or henna, which is appropriate if you are about to travel
Sleep
