Hanging at Survivor Beach (where Survivor Vanuatu was filmed)
Dan cutting my hair with a Bigfala Naef (machete)- then i shaved it all off.Also before I forget: here's the link to my newest pictures. http://loyolamd.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2036341&l=45432&id=20101312
Well, I have another very successful week. Lots of good stuff. Lots of learning? in class. I have improved my Bislama skills for sure. Over the weekend we spent the time relaxing at the beach. I've done a lot of snorkeling. I eat a lot of good food. I am still getting up early in the morning, but I've been going snorkeling and have started to do yoga in the a.m. too. Also, all the volunteers have been hanging out at night, so that's good too.
In other good news, I bought a guitar and am learning to play it. I am very excited about that and hopefully when I get home, I'll be a guitar pro.
Also, I shaved my head which was fun. Washing my hair with a bucket of cold water was too much work. Plus it was really hot out. My hair will grow back, don't worry, but everyone says it looks good.
What else? It's hard to say. Things are starting to seem more normal now, more like life instead of being amazed by every little thing. But the sunsets are still gorgeous and the stars in the night sky are absolutely amazing.

Awesome blog Alyssa! Lizzy said you shaved your head but I didn't expect a machete to be involved! I don't blame you though. Good luck with your adventures... I look forward to reading about them!
Ok - now I've read the whys of the head shaving. Personally, I've been enjoying the short hair deal pretty steadily for a number of years now. But mostly because bald forehead plus long in back looks idiotic....
you definitely rock the shaved head. and im proud to say i was a witness to the madness.
