I am sooo tired today. It's 9:30pm here so this will be a short post. I am ready to pass out!!
We had a relatively dry boring day today. There was a lot of orientating to do. We had a few lectures- safety overview, and some Hindi phrases. It doesn't sound like a lot, but it took most of the day.
Then we did a scavenger hunt around the area. You all know how much I hate games. So luckily I got paired with one guy who is Indian and speaks Hindi in our program so I just followed him around everywhere haha! I know it defeated the point of the exercise but...whatever. But the STARING! Holy cow. It really is ridiculous. I'll be walking down the busy city street and men on both sides of the road just stop and watch me walk by! I don't know that I'm ever going to get used to it.
Then the group of us ventured into the center of Delhi (the more commercial developed section) for a fancy dinner and it was amazing. I just love Indian food. It's so colorful and flavorful. Mmmm.
Tomorrow the thing I am most excited about is a Bollywood dance workshop. Oh yeah. Kristy if you're reading this I will learn all I can and teach it to you :) So stay tuned to hear about that hilarious undertaking.
