Today was a pretty cute class at the monastery. Put all of our practice playing boardgames/charades back home, into use over here. I got them playing charades to learn different words/actions and they were laughing so hard because each one would act out different actions (like lazy, sleeping, bored, ashamed, angry, etc) and they were soo cute. Yesterday was funny too cause I got them playing pictionary using different English words so that was prety funny too. I find that they learn really well with games, and they really like them. Its really impressive how fast they pick up English too, they just retain everything. Thursday and Friday i am not teachign because they are going to a temple/stupa to pray starting tonight (wednesday) BUT they invited me to come haha! I had to reject the offer because I couldnt really understand what the explanation of exactly what it was they were doing there other than praying, but i thought that was pretty awesome. They are celebrating the birth of Buddha, which is this saturday...and I think it might even be the same day of his death but Im not really sure. Anyways, a lot of people here will be celebrating on saturday.
Gotta hit the orphanage!
