So Many Rocks
So much to talk about so much to do. In the last 2 and some weeks i (and the others in the group) have showered a maximum of 3 times. But it was totally worth it for all the things we got to expirience. First was Village. The apricot trees were in bloom and the weather was friendly to us. the family i stayed with had 4 kids i think. I only saw 3. One boy was in 4th class. I saw and talked to him the most he had good english. and a girl in 10th class she was more shy and had more chores to do, but i still got to talk and do things with her. And a girl in 12th class came home for a day from boarding school. We visitded a school there 3 times and the girl in 10th class went to that school. But the boy was sent off to a private school. He took the bus to school. I helped him with his homework sometimes, and it is sad how the education system works in India. They concentrate on memorization rather then comprehension. There were some sentences that he had perfectly memorized then he would ask me what a meaning to one of the words was.
But the family was so kind and generous. They were allways giving me more to eat and drink, more then i could posibly eat if it tried. But i got to help them in the fields some, and i learned how to spin wool. I am glad i got to stay with them for a week in such a beautiful freindly place.
After that we visited SECMOL, a boarding school for students who fail their 10th class test (which happens a lot up here because the education system is not fair) And everyone there was so friendly. Then we had a Treck which was amazing. There were rocks everywhere and so many different kinds, and i wanted to pick up them all and upt them in my pocket. I have a few one being a lucky find, a crystal quartz.
Tootles for now
