I never want to come home!
I never want to go home! I love it here so much! This is totally carnal but I love the way that I am treated here! It is all VIP! The last couple of days have been a blast! Sunday was church, and it was so awesome. These people have such a love for God even though it is not a CLC, crazy, totally on fire church, they truly love Jesus. Monday Ishta and I went all over Delhi looking for tutors. It was a lot of fun to see all of the city. This city is HUGE, and so dynamic. There are so many different sides to Delhi. Slums/mansions, markets/ huge metro malls! I love it So Monday we were in this building that was under construction. Ish and I got onto a lift, and I was a bit freaked out by the operator. He was chuckling and had a super sketchy expression on his face.. One of a psycho chain saw murder killer on downers. I told him that I needed to go to the 2nd floor and he presses 2, thus taking me to the basement.. I naturally kind of freaked out and said 2nd story 2nd story! So he laughed and pressed 0. So we got to the main floor and I was a bit freaked out, and then the electricity went out Survival instinct kicked in and I totally freaked out! Then the electricity came back on and the guy was laughing really hard!! Freak machine Wow, so that night we went to dinner at this Arabian place. It was so awesome. We met a few of Ishtas brothers friends from Morocco and Syria. They were extremely friendly and so fun! They invited me to Morocco.. Very tempting. I also ate at Mc Donalds! I got a veggie burger, because that is all they have! I think God created India just for me! Tuesday Ish and I took an auto to an area called Green Park and got Pedicures! 90* for a pedi.. that is under $2.00! It was seriously the best pedi I have ever gotten in my whole life. They really cared about what they were doing, unlike the china man places in the mall! Haha.. maybe I am just paying for what I get, but I like paying 90* vs. $30. Tuesday night was Bible study. It was great! There were two Hindu women that I had never seen, and our chauffeur came in. He is Roman Catholic. Wednesday we went to the Rwandan High Counselors house and went swimming. The pools here are so wonderful. They are all marble and really big! That was a good day! I am starting to meet a lot of awesome people. Today I went to the shelter that I am starting to work at tomorrow. It is called Prayas. Visit the site; www.prayaschildren .org. It is a great place and is heavily endorsed by the US. In fact Laura Bush was at the facility earlier this month helping out. I am really excited about it! Next month I am going to start teaching at a homeless school in the slums. It is separate from Prayas, though Prayas is also a school. Prayas means new beginning. Then after that I came home and went with Ishtas brother to the Rwandan Ambassadors house to swim. That was amazing! An estate with 20ft. walls around it! It looked like the house on Ace Ventura. Funny comparison but that is what I thought of. It was amazing! The Ambassador was a total sweetheart! I am meeting the American Ambassadors son this weekend! AMERICANS>>>> I really dont care, but I guess it is nice to see white skin. These Indians are really really dark. Darker than black people! The ambassadors house was grand! OMG The walk to the pool was exquisite; one thing that is so awesome about Delhi is all of the gardens. There are wonderful gardens everywhere. The sidewalk to the pool was lined with palm trees all the way to the pool, which was far! The landscape was fantastic. It is crazy because here in India the staff manicures the lawn with scissors. It is funny to see people cutting grass.. Well I was supposed to go to a benefit play for Prayas tonight. I was very excited because the Prime Minister was there, but on the way home from the ambassadors casa our travels were halted due to a strike. People were in the streets fighting with sticks. This was quite a culture shock. I dont know exactly why they were striking, something about a water line. Something that didnt seem to be striking worthy to me! Well I am tired and I am going to hit the sac. Miss you all That is the only thing that totally sucks about it here, is the lack of family and friends! Ciao for now... Tkea*
