Today is a holy day in Nepal (celebrating Buddha's birthday) so all the kids at the orphanage didnt have school (thank god, cause we didnt have to help them with their homework that is too hard for us!). Instead we went to the orphanage at 930am (usually we got at around 330-4) and before we went, me bridge and our friend Angus, went to the supermarket and bought a few games for them to play. We bought Guess Who, a jewelry making kit, a skipping rope, a soccer ball, and a painting game. Alot of their games are really worn out and ratty and when they dont have to do homework they arent really left with that much to play with. so when we showed up with all that stuff, they were sooooooooooo excited! "thank you sistaaaaa, sistaaa helpp me, sistaaaa how do you do thisss, sistaaaa come play" haha it was pretty overwhelming for the 3 of us, and after a few hours we were beat. They loved it though, it was awesome. They are so appreciative and so cute. Usually when we go there, every fwe days we bring a little thing, like some chocolate/bananas/lechees (fruit), just because it makes our day cause they get so happy and their little 'thanks you sistas' is soo great!
TOmorrow is the 28th and the due date for the Constitution, we still dont have word about what is going to happen, but I think that is pretty likely that they will not have come to an agreement (seeing as nothing here is ever on time EVER), so it is probable that there could be a strike or at least some protesting. The last thing we want is to be stuck in a volunteer house full of like 20 people and not be able to go onthe streets or have any space orrrr not be able to work.
