One Time Use

So like most days here in senegal, while it's hot as hell and i'm sweating i start to think about all the things i miss so much from back home. i've created several meals i plan on eating upon arrival back to america, which is still so long away. but it helps pass the time and takes my mind off the heat and helps with the boredom. but anyways i was sitting outside the other day thinking about my former life in america, we all sometimes call it this 'movie' that we may or may not have not seen before. it seems like a dream at times. i was having a bad couple of days, i was really sick and thinking about college and all my friends. thinking about nights out on the square in ol' san marcos and all the fun times i had floating the river, hangin out at the park, eating at all my favorite places. then i was looking around in my hut at all the pics i have of my friends and i, there are also plenty of pics of the family too. but looking around at the pics i noticed most of them were taken with a one-time use camera, and just how freaking great one-time use cameras are. Then i got all nostalgic about one-time use cameras. they are perfect, cuz you really never know what will be on a one-time use camera when you develop them, or at least i never did. plus they always have the most random photos on them, because like i always did you randomly find one before going out and decide it could be funny to take the camera out with you. they usually end up being on nights of random birthday parties or random events, plus one-time use cameras are always i great impulse buy at the grocery store. they only cost $5 and they are just everywhere. but then i started thinking about how much of a waste one-time use cameras are. i mean you spend $5 of the camera and then another $8 or so on developing, and then are they even recycled, i'm sure or at least hope. but even though one-time use cameras seem to be a waste, i still love them and miss them dearly. so if anyone wants to send me out a couple one-time use cameras, that would much appreciated. Happy Thankgiving everyone, and don't worry i'm eating a good dinner today here in Kedougou. Although Aunt Debbie's German Chocolate Cake won't be here, that's going to kind of suck!!
