Good morning Beautiful, how was ur night???

Il est minuit! Je veux dormir (et je le dois) mais j’ai pas sommeil. J’ecoute de la musique tout en pensant : je me pose des questions .... c’est un peu compliqué ! Je suis bloquée ....

Quand je retourne mes yeux en arrière, je ne cesse de répéter GOD IS GREAT and he has done a lot 2 me, my family and friends : I didn’t deserve ... I have been lucky .... I’ve expected much .... I am planning …. I must … I should have done ….. I did it, I didn’t ... Ariko ikiruta I surrender all mes inquiétudes, mes doutes, mes peines, mes erreurs, mes prières, mes souhaits, my achievements, mes projets, ....TOUT : ALL
« Ntugasaze, ibyiza biri imbere ! » is it true?? None naba mbisize inyuma?? My childhood (Seigneur je te remercie pr la famille que tu m’as donné, pour l’enfance que j’ai eu ; am sure ko uwo mbikesha muri kumwe kdi ko natwe abasigaye Uturi hafi), mes études, my friends and relatives, my Darling, voyages, job, … ni byinshi I cannot tell it all. Mais j’ai confiance en TOI SGR ntuzantererana kuko Udahemuka. Mais quand je vois ce qui se passe ici-bas Oh Lord je perds confiance bien des fois. Aide-moi, fortifie-moi ! Ibintu byinshi binsubiza inyuma : Kuki ? P’koi ? Hvorfor ? Why ? toutes ces injustices, toutes ces haines, toutes ces guerres, toutes ces catastrophes et calamités, famines, oh why ? why ? why so ??
Quand j’ai commencé cette lettre j’avais en tête ma mission, la Norvège, Skien, mon prochain voyage (vacances) et voilà que j’ai dévié. Oh la la la ! Le cerveau ! Les émotions !

Snart, je vais revoir mes collègues et chers amis Youth Delegates. Mes 1ères connaissances in Norway ! Jeg savner dere so much. On va se revoir bientôt, fortifiés, changés (absolutely) par les différentes expériences que nous avons vécues pendant ces dix mois ! 10 mois que c’est long, que ça passe vite ! Mais avant, je dois retourner en BLG ! Dear tu vas devoir m’excuser kuko ... quand on dit BLG on fait référence à Ambiance - Jus de raisin - retrouvailles. Je serai SAGE je te promets, mais avec klk folies ! juste quelques, okay ? kurengera BIBI, toi-mm tu sais I can’t go over ... :2 bonnes semaines, mais d’ici (consultant mon agenda) ce n’est que klk heures ! minutes mm ! héhé ! Que ce sera beau et bon de pouvoir dormir, se réveiller et jouer avec Matt : 5 ans ou 6 ans déjà !Petit oiseau deviendra grand un jour ! Que les jours passent si vite ces derniers temps, OMG !

Revenant encore en arrière, cette semaine mm, j’ai eu une nouvelle vision de la réalité et surtout de la vie dans mon Pays. Il est vrai que c’est compliqué d’une part (part considérable) et facile d’autre part !! Still, Bro, I have 2 tell u ko la réalité, oui c’est la réalité ; BIRIHO.Le changement est possible cyane, cyane iyo byose ubishyize imbere ya Nyagasani ; nta MEN (but) nagashyizeho ariko kandi ntibura ! Birakomeye, birasharira (bitter), birababaje, biragoye... Afasha uwifashije ; kdi twe twakwifashije turarangaye, twacitse intege, twabuze aho duhera, turatatanye, ... Let me tell u : Ugiye gusura abantu wahagera ugasanga babaga ihene, ishobora guhebeba, iyo sound irimo agahinda, kwiheba na résignation ko bagiye kuyica bishobora kugukora ahantu ku mutima, ukwumva wababuza ngo basi bayireke ; ariko la plupart de cas ubyibikaho, niyo wabivuga nta ngufu ubishyiramo ahubwo ugasanga nyuma ya 30 min, 1 heure mwicaye murya za nyama, na za mbabazi wagize utacyizibuka sometimes ahubwo umuntu ukaba wavuga ngo n’iriya isigaye tuyishakire umunsi, cg se ako gakoko nako nimukotse nubundi ... To say that ........ hopefully u understand, u’ve understood.




Dear am down kabisa! Morale cini! Et pourtant je dois être forte pr moi mm, pour ma mère, ma soeur, my family, ... pour toi aussi. Ces klk minutes de conversations téléphoniques me soulagent et me pèsent à la fois! Ce n’est jamais enough ! Parfois je me révolte and I spend them mu tu détails non importants, stupides débats ( u know) ; ariko icyiruta U know what I mean muri each word, chaque soupir, every silence. I miss a lot 2 people: u and Joe! Kuko on s’attend/se comprend always ariko nziko ko our ideas/propos/points de vue ne sont pas tjrs concordants ; loin de là ! Ariko iyo ari ngombwa vous êtes les seuls à kunyereka réellement où j’ai déconné, ce qu’il 4 faire (kindly mais fermement) no kunsubiza mu murongo ! RESPECT kabisa ! Je vous respecte et sais pas ce que je serai without u !mrc pr tout !
OMG, il est 2h25 du matin ! Il 4 k je dorme sinon 2moro ce sera la cata !

Lord hear me when I call, when I knock oh God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress/doubt/pain/anxiety/crisis/loneliness/fails/falls; Have mercy on me and hear my Prayer. I’m calling upon U Lord my God, my Rock, my Fortress, my Shield, my Strength and my Deliverer who’s worthy 2 believe, 2 trust and to be praised, 4ever & ever, AMEN

The Gambie

What a nice time I've had in The Gambie! 2 nice weeks!




We left Skien busstasjon early at 2.00AM, picked the others in Porsgrunn. By 5.00 AM we were at Gardemoen Airport. It was so coooooooooooooooooold! Though, I was so excited to back 2 Africa, the sun, the travel,... the whole journey was so exciting!



8 hours of flight! Finally we reached The gambie. So hot oh My God! Many people, and they were harasssing us (asking money, asking to help us, asking if we want to go..., asking and asking...). A bus took us from the Airport to Mansea Beach Hotel at 500m from the Beach. It has a swimming pool where we dived almost every day! I shared the room with a funny and nice girl, Ida S. She's so nice. She helped me by her funny stories, her lovely comprehension and each day feelings shared before to sleep. "Tusen takk My Dear"


Many places we visited, different meal we ate! wouah!

The 1st week: They took us to different sightseeings. We visited the HQ of Red Cross in The Gambie, Fajikunda Red Cross link, the sewing school, the Health Center, a nursery school sponsorized by Norway, we went to the Beach, participated at the Beauty Queens Parade (parade organized by Fajikunda Red Cross) and they elected the Year Queen. Djalex (a popular and famous singer) performed that night and every one was crazy, dancing, shouting almost standing on our heads!!!! We went to the Crocodile Park and I shaked Charlie's hand (a crocodile)!!! Yes I did!!!! At the beginningI was afraid of course!


Fajikunda Red Cross, Charlie le Crocodile


Nursery School




The 2nd week: we trained the Fajikunda Red Cross volunteers in 1st Aid and Active choice. We visited the Roots Nursery School where some from our group became benefectors of 9 children (sponsor). We also contributed to the construction of the school's toilet. We went to James Island (island where were emprisoned slaves b4 being deported 2 America); we also went to Banjul Market. The night before we came back we had dinner with gambian guys. They really helped us and are so kind.

Every one is smissing The Gambie :)

Longtime!

Yeah! Longtime!!!




I have been experiencing many things since my trip to Italy!





I have been to many places especially Denmark in Color Line; a high speed & new brand BOAT! It was really nice but not funny at all when the boat was going up and down and us just whining 2 the left & the right ( Yes I like to dance but,... when ther is Music and appropriated atmosphere! lol! ). I enjoyed my 1day stay in Denmark, the shopping (fordi things are cheaper than here in Norway and of course the duty free shop on the boat) Even if my account got a luck of much penger, am not angry at all! Necessary and nice things boat!








One weekend we went to Lifjell ( as we are travelling to Gambia next january), we had a workshop-relaxing wknd in a cottage in the mountains. Nice wknd! And great jobb we did there! Many things planned and arranged in such a short time. TOGETHER WE CAN! Many wknds we're busy in Gambia project, we're deserved a relax, a rest.







Last week we went to Oslo, where WE MADE IT: we were there when the treaty against the cluster bombs was signed. Historical event!!! And International en +! I hope that nations which signed and the ones which didn't will stopp producting, selling or using them. How better will be the WORLD then! Reste a croiser nos doigts! I can't forget how happy I was to see my Fellow Youth Delagates, once again! I really missed u guys. And the ones abroad! Il me tarde d'etre en June 09 to meet you again! And to go back in my Sweet and Beautiful RWANDA then; I'll see my... my... and My Lovely .....! Ouh il me tarde vrmt!








I don't forget the school where we have been in "School project" giving Aktiv valg eller Stopp volden eller Human trafficking. Også, we r still attending the norwegian class, by the way my norsk is getting better and better every day! Nice læreren! I'll miss them, our classmates, our nice and interesting studies,... all!
Today we're coming back from Gvarv wher we had a presentation about our Beutiful and Sweet Country : RWANDA. It was to a youth group which is going to a trip to the East African. You're more than welcome in our country and Mama Africa!
Stay in touch!
