One day the girls give me a tour of their dorms at St. Paul’s Secondary
Each dorm is divided into cubes with sheets as doors
The girls decorate their dorms with magazine pictures
Some things about teenage girls are universal
Each cube has 4 beds, 2 cupboards, and a table along the wall for studying
In the middle of the 3 dorms is their water tank
Some of the other girls show me their dorm
The bathrooms. At the beginning of the school year, there was no running water. Now they finally have some
The toilets…not American approved
Because they wash their clothes in the sink, they use the fence as a dryer
Looking across the road at the school
And a quick look at the boys dorm, and then our tour is over
