As you may have guessed dear readers, I have attained internet at the home that I live in now that I'm in India! While it is an extreme blessing, it is also something that I will have to make sure I'm not on 24/7! Today was my second day of class, and it was interesting. It's the class that I have with the rest of our group so it was awesome to see everyone again. On the way to class this morning, Rita, my roommate and I joked about what constitutes a good day for us. This is what constituted as a good day in India: We weren't ripped off by the auto rickshaw drivers, we got on the correct metro, we weren't violated by many Indian men on the metro, less people stared at us, and I didn't step in any pee or whatever else it is puddles! Would you get that in Minnesota or South Dakota? I don't really think so folks!
I also found out about a service works group at our college that travels to slums and villages on the weekends to work with the children of the slums. I am extremely pumped, because this is the opportunity I have been waiting for, and I know I will meet amazing people while on these trips. So far, my first week in India has been such an incredible blessing. I couldn't ask for a better Kakima or Kaka. They are such beautifully, passionate people who love India. Kaka was saying what a blessing it was to have us in his home. He also said that we are staying for the rest of our lives. Don't worry mom and dad, I will be coming home...eventually! I also live with 3 other girls, Tiffany, Rita, who I sleep with, and Brenna. Then there is also Drew who lives upstairs with his young professional. We also have a houskeeper, Anima, who is incredibly adorable with the best smile someone could ever possess. I also eat WAY too much, but Kakima continues to feed me so I will continue to take!
