Amanuel, Yemeni food & pondering

Just had a chat with Amanuel, my Eritrean friend and he thinks I should specialize in child or womens rights for my PHD, I am not sure I have a particular inclination to women’s rights. I may consider child rights. For some reason I have always thought there should not be a distinction between women and men in terms of rights I am of the view that there should be equal human rights but that may contradict the inclination to child rights. Am going to explore the whole women and child rights idea and see what I can do with it, Am daring to start a PHD while doing my second masters, is this the love of books or an obsession? Last night I realized that I want to teach in Africa, I have four options Seychelles being the first, as the country has just opened up its first University and am hoping that I can finally be able to teach in my dream country,perfect my French, live on an Island while doing a job I love. sounds like it only gets better from this point on! Inshallah It’s after midnight and is sleepless; I need to get some sleep so I can wake up to work tomorrow. Have spent most of the evening looking at Ugandan pictures, reminiscing, and ordered Yemen Food! Delicious, yum! Watched Julie and Julia and realized just how much I need to get some activity in my life, some personal goals that I can set for myself and achieve, without aiming at getting published or appear in a law/refugee journal. Just my own personal joy! Been thinking about cooking and baking, but am often complaining about how small my kitchen is and if I buy this and the other, am only here for a short while, what is the point…? But then really, those are all flimsy excuses. I can make my house a joy to be in instead of a place I run away from for as long as am here.
