A Beard Named Nelson

I'm not going to shave this semester.

A couple guys and I are going to try to take a picture of our beards' progression every day for the whole 4 months.  In this blog, I will write about my adventures and experiences in Africa, and once a week or so I will post a picture of my beard.

I am going to name my South Africa beard Nelson, after Nelson Mandela.  Except, instead of fighting for the end of apartheid and the end of segregation between black and white, this Nelson will be fighting for the reconciliation between me and true manhood potential.

intshebe ukukhula means beard growth in Zulu.
