School is Canceled!

Sorry it's been a few days since I updated.. Delhi belly is no myth. It's real. I survived haha. It's amazing how being sick makes you miss your family though. I really wanted to have Aaron there with me, and when I though about that it made me cry.. which made me then want to call my family.
The last day that I was at the school we did an alphabet exercise with flashcards and pictures. I also brought copies of a rainbow I drew, so they could practice their colors. Coloring is always a hit. I even joined in. The kids are listening to me a bit more than they used to, which is a good thing. It makes the day a lot smoother. They had tai kwondo lessons with their morning routine on Monday. I have to say, it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. They were all so intense. Their faces were absolutely priceless.
I finally took some pictures of the kids. They're all destined to be models. They were all pulling on my arms, wanting their picture taken. I barely survived haha, but was happy to oblige.
The last day that I was at school Bela and Jaggy (my program directors) came to check on how things were working out with my placement. It's very strange hearing two people talk about you, while you're in the middle, but have absolutely no idea what they're saying. Hope it was all good things. The teacher showed Jaggy the picture flashcard that I made for the class, which led to an awesome proposition. The school has different pictures painted on the outside (such as shapes, months, nursery rhymes), and Jaggy told me that if I was interested I could do a mural on one of the walls while I'm here! I definitely plan on doing it. Any ideas on what I should paint?
Today school was canceled, thank goodness. I wasn't going to be attending because I've been sick. It was raining pretty hard this morning and very cold. Because the school doesn't have doors or windows, it's not much different than having school outside. I can only imagine how cold and uncomfortable it would have been for those kids if they'd had school. We also get tomorrow off because of the Lohri Festival, which is today. From what I've heard it's a harvest festival that is supposed to mark the beginning of winter ending. Tonight all around town their will be music, dancing, and bonfires. You might wanna look that information up for yourself though haha. I don't know how reliable my information is. I'll make sure to blog about it after I've been.
Well I think that's all I have for today.
