Sunday...

I don’t know how I managed this but I have gotten my days mixed up because I haven’t been journaling lately.  So this journal is the Sunday journal but it is in between day 107 and 108… if that makes sense at all.

I woke up in the morning with Sonja and walked back over to my room wrapped in my blanket and everyone starred at me even though it was too dark to see anything.  I got my baggy clothes on and came outside to do the Cross-Fit exercise.  It started out with a 300m run, and 30 sets of 4 jumping jacks… this was just the beginning.  After that I was showed how to lift the metal bar with weights at the ends of them and put it over my head.  I was paired up with Sonja so the whole workout was in a pattern.  One person runs 100m and the other lifts the bar… then you switch, one person runs 100m and the other does burpees… then you switch, one person runs 100m and the other lifts the weights above their head… then you switch, one person runs 100m and the other does jump rope.  Everyone does three sets of this and then the workout is over and everyone goes off to change for breakfast… I was too lazy to change so I stayed outside and stretched everything out as much as I could.  Finally it was breakfast but I didn’t eat as much as normal because I knew that if I did there wouldn’t be any point of having a workout.

 After breakfast everyone got to do their chores and I did some of mine but mostly I went and had the Sunday meeting with Rashmi and some of the other older kids here.  After this I just stayed in the office and her and I talked forever about travelling and the kids here.  I don’t know where the time went but when we finished talking it was almost lunchtime and I went to my room to relax.  When the lunch bell rang I went to the dining hall to join everyone and when we were done everyone went to play or study.  Finally I put my new knowledge of atoms to use and I was so happy that the boys understood everything.  When atoms were done the oys got more work out about bio and chemistry and I helped them with that as well.  When we had finished our work Deepak had questions about the Bermuda triangle so we googled it and read as much as we could until he was satisfied with all the information I gave him.  Finally it was playtime and I brought my speaker out and danced with everyone and taught them what i learned in dance at school.  I even taught Guatum how to dance with a girl... he still needs some work and everyone laughs when he tries to break out the moves.  Deepak called me over and him and I bathed the puppies, I grabbed my towel and dried the babies off so they didn't freeze.  I continued to play after this.

I have photographers everywhere.

Deciding on a dance.

And this is how dance class started... swinging Sita around.

Who doesn't love to dance!

The Arati bell rang and Sonja and Sita whist me off to their room and my hair was done again… Sonja always makes me look so pretty I love it!  During Arati now some one always manages to make me laugh and thank goodness that I don’t get in trouble.  When Arati is done I grab my dinner plate and sit next to Sita and anyone else that wants to sit next to me…. I always have a new place to sit and always someone who wants to sit with me.

I had hot milk and then went to bed like usual but tonight wasn’t as cold and it didn’t take long for my feet to heat up.
