I had to go to work alone today because one of the girls I'm living with and working with is really sick. I hope she feels better soon because I think she's going to miss out on the Taj this weekend.
Keeping this in mind... I had to work with crazy children by myself haha. I made plans for them but I was put with children in an older age group. I just tried to work on numbers with them because they all seem to know how to count from 1-10 but they can't identify numbers. I don't think they know what counting really means, they just get excited that they can do it.
After that I fell asleep in the car because I was really tired. The ride home was very long because the people who deliver the petrol want a higher percentage the amount of oil they are delivering. The reason this is a problem is because there are less pumps for people to fill up at and then the cars end up waiting outside of
the gas station which blocks the roads. It's even worse now because all of Delhi is under construction since they are building an underground Metro.
At one point, Laiah and I went to Haus-Khauz Market (outside of out flat) to meet a friend of hers who is living right near us. We couldn't talk for long but he told us he'd tell a few of his friends from the area to contact us. We're very excited haha.
After dinner we went to a local(ish) mall called Citywalk and just browsed through the stores. We both agreed it would be a good place to go to if we wanted to get away form the chaos of the city. (I know, going to a mall wouldn't seem like it'd help but you have to be here to understand how chaotic it is).
Then bed time because we had to wake up early for Taj!
This is a picture of next door to the school I work at, a bunch of families live there because they are helping to do construction in the area.
