A trip to Liberia and a really bad headache


This is "pipa", fresh young coconut milk. Yum!
Today Mom and I went to Liberia with Sandra and her friend Val to go shopping. We went to a store called "Ropa Americana", but it was a second-hand store and I didn't find anything I liked. When we were in the store I started to have a really bad headache and see flashing lights everywhere. My headache really hurt and kept getting worse and worse. Mom took me to a pharmacy to get me an aspirin but it wasn't a good kind and didn't work. Sandra got me a fresh coconut to help me re-hydrate (which actually tasted good) and we made our way home. On the way home though we were all hungry so we stopped at a cafe. To eat I got grilled cheese sandwich but my head was still really hurting and I didn't eat much! When we got home I took a real aspirin and it turned out I had a migraine! I couldn't really do much so I just laid in bed for awhile and then finished Spiderwick Chronicles. At least mom made a really good soup for dinner! The rest of the night I rested at the house. Oh, I almost forgot! While I resting in my bed, I lost another tooth! It was so wiggly and hanging by a thread and my mom came in to check on me and told me to just pull it out so I did. Out it came, just like that!
