Episode 6
Darkness
The Malawian sun has not been kind to me lately. I've been getting burned real quickly, and the ensuing tan lines have been all over the place. My upper body is pretty unsightly, but I think my legs could rival it. I've been bitten more than 30 times on my legs, and I would die from embarrassment, if not for the fact that I wear chitenjes everyday, so I pretty much spare everyone the sight of my legs. The upper body isn't as easy to hide, especially when it is 120 degrees outside. My friends have taken to calling me Darkness. At first I thought it was funny...haha...like the Charlie Murphy True Hollywood Story skit on the Chappelle Show! But yesterday, I went into the market, and this one vendor said to me in all seriousness, "I am thinking that you are Pakastani?" Oy Vey!
