Cape Town: Week 3

It is already halfway into the semester. I don't know where the time has gone. I am starting to feel the stress of deadlines. I have so much I have to do by the time I get back in December. I am trying not to let the stress of school work and fellowships distract me from my experiences here. I am really enjoying my homestay and the city as a whole. I just need to manage my time well.
I went to a Sami Yussef concert with my host sister and Corrine last night. It was great. Quite a unique experience. He is a Muslim singer who is world famous for his religious music. The entire stadium (with thousands of people) was full of mostly Muslims. Corrine and I stood out to say the least. He is really talented. I am glad I had a chance to share the experience with my host sister.
Tomorrow is Robben Island. I hope it doesn't rain.

I know how you feel! I'm in Shanghai right now, and I'm enjoying it but the number of fellowships that are rolling up is ridiculous. BTW, if I can join you as an NY Urban Fellow, I would be super happy. You're awesome!
