So, this is a scorpion/centipede. They sting like a scorpion...The teachers who had me come out and see this one said that the sting will kill you...I don't think that's true because they also say there is this spider that bites and kills you that doesn't. Anyways, the thing is huge. You have to kill it in a certain way. First you cut the stingers off, then you smash the head. They are fast also. If you just cut it in half, the 2 halves run away from you, and they might regenerate...but I don't know if I understood that correctly...

So, here is is just to get a closer look at this ugly bug....



So this snail was on my steps climbing around. I couldn't believe how big it was. The poop is big also (it pooped on my steps, then I didn't clean up the poop cause I wanted to show my site mate Julie how big the poop from this thing was.) :) And next to it is one of those giant centipedes. I remember before leaving the states I was at a store and talking about going to Africa and the salesman said something about giant centipedes. I just dismissed it. But apparently it was totally true. This centipede is harmless, though. You could pick it up, it will roll into a ball and then poop. I haven't tried that yet...


I've talked about climbing my tower to watch the sunset, and how beautiful it is. Well, here's one photo I took one of the times I climbed. This would be nice to have one of those fancy ass cameras. :)


So, from the top of my tower, this is an overview of my school. My house is not shown in this picture. These are the classrooms and offices, but my house is literally not far off...as well as the dorms for the kids.
