Day 39

Alright look I’ve just posted twoish days in a row. Almost. Impressive. Remember how I previously mentioned that one of the security guards runs a work out class twice a week. Well I have been going to them with Melissa. And it’s pretty pathetic how weak I have gotten, compared to when I was in high school. So now I’m just sore all of the time. But it is a fun workout.

Today we just had the basic classes. OT, Islam, and Ludlow. Islam was only supposed to be an hour long, but he kept us for two. Ick. I couldn’t tell you a word he said because I was doing readings for Ludlow’s class. And listening in Islam is utterly pointless and useless. So I’m not missing out on much, if anything. I got a 6/5 on my quiz in Ludlow though! So not paying attention in Islam paid off.

For lunch today I had an epiphany. It was sandwiches for lunch, which I usually don’t like because it is all meat. But I realized that I can have a delicious veggie sandwich by using the salad bar veggies! Dur. Why didn’t I think of that before? Pretty much sandwich day is now my favorite.

We had a humanitarian activity again. Except I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much as last one. Mainly because I was helping seal bags, instead of making the kits. And the sealer was a piece of crap, thus we couldn’t go very fast. So it was just frustrating. But I did get a couple of home made cookies out of it.

At dinner tonight I got to go on a tour of the kitchen, because Lauren is friends with Achmed- the lead chef and a fellow vegetarian. It was fun to see the kitchen, I almost felt like I was back at Harmon’s and had to go prep some lettuce.  And since it’s Friday night we get to watch a movie, it’s the Prince of Egypt. Apparently just about every single person here has seen it, except for me.

I haven’t taken any pictures of my exciting past day. So I am including pictures of my room, via request of my mother. There are four of us to a room. There haven’t been any problems with sharing the shower or anything. Except I am maybe probably slightly irritated with one roommate, just because she is just a bit in her own little world. And is super loud while everyone else is trying to sleep and she never seems to remember about cleaning checks. Oh wells. I only wake up to every single sound and movement in the room, no biggie.

My bed is the middle one

 What a great room, huh?
