We were discussing the situation in Mombasa and Kenya at large. She was telling me how people are leaving for Tanzania and Uganda and then proceeded to say that <em>she</em> would stay in Mombasa and that she could <em>wield a Machete</em> as well as the next person! So if anyone asks me to describe my mother it will certainly be as follows:<br />A machete and <em>mwiko(</em>wooden spoon in swahili) wielding warrior queen,master websurfer,improvising goddess and someone who <em>doesnt</em> leave the sinking ship but who also manages to live to fight another day...(!!!)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/694567178010317616-2493590186976764269?l=sakeena-coloured.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sakeenahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00184107088587683460noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-694567178010317616.post-17626885600578378282008-01-26T12:11:00.000Z2008-01-27T23:23:53.171Z<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A6Ej7DM39p8/R5sjlRwNF6I/AAAAAAAAAAU/z_2g0L11gOE/s1600-h/random+012b.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159756921410754466" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_A6Ej7DM39p8/R5sjlRwNF6I/AAAAAAAAAAU/z_2g0L11gOE/s320/random+012b.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>“<a class="sqq" href="http://thinkexist.com/quotation/take_courage-whatever_you_decide_to_do-it_will/12456.html">Take Courage!

Being here has certainly been an experience . For someone who is used to 365 days of sunshine in any coastal town of Kenya, Canada's -25 deg C. is weather from <em>hell! </em><br /><br />De-mystifying the subway and general layout of Univeristy of Toronto( where I am doing a gap year )was quite a mission at first...but you get used to it.<br /><br />Toronto doesnt sleep, it runs on caffeine -always on the move.Toxic. A jungle of glass skyscrapers, and the university is spread out over this huge city.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/694567178010317616-8151114019403008180?l=sakeena-coloured.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sakeenahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00184107088587683460noreply@blogger.com2
