Alright peoples, here’s what a typical day is like for me.<\/p>\n
I wake up at way too freaking early to get to morning exercises at the park by 6:00. (maybe a 10 minute walk, give or take)<\/p>\n
Morning exercises alternates between a walk\/run (I walk) and calisthenics. On Friday we play soccer. (I prefer the calisthenics days)<\/p>\n
Then I walk home and have my quiet time while everyone else is taking a shower.<\/p>\n
Then I take a shower. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
We walk to the base (15 minutes) and do morning chores. I’m on the bathroom crew and I was doing the toilets but we’re going to be switching around jobs this week.<\/p>\n
Then I go to my classroom (IT HAS AIR CONDITIONING) and we get announcements and stuff.<\/p>\n
We break for morning tea and I get to eat. Yay! (I’ll usually have eaten something at home too but I’m also usually hungry by then too.)<\/p>\n
Then when we get back we have lectures basically until lunch.<\/p>\n
We eat lunch.<\/p>\n
Then we usually have free time so I’ll either go to the city with some people (I’m not confident enough with public transportation yet to do it by myself, although I might be able to figure out the train not that I’ve taken it a few times.) or I’ll go home. Then I get to do fun stuff\/homework.<\/p>\n
I have to be back at the base by 5:00 because I’m on the dinner dish crew (along with most of Compassion) and that means I help set up too. (approx number of people we’re feeding, 300) I usually set out the knives then help with the food.<\/p>\n
Then we eat! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
After announcements we head to the kitchen to get started on the dishes. My job is to detail this thing that I think works as an oven but it doesn’t really look like one. Picture a fridge shaped contraption that has racks that I can roll out and clean separately. If the auto clean is done I can get to work right away and it takes most of the time. Then I just ask for random jobs until we finish. We usually finish between 7:00 and 7:30.<\/p>\n
Then sometimes I have free time and sometimes we’re doing stuff like small groups.<\/p>\n
Then at night I have to remind myself to go to sleep at a decent time because I know I’ll be waking up at way too freakishly early the next morning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
