Week Two!

So today was my first day off since last Saturday and it felt great! I got a chance, as you may see, to catch up on everything...like....pictures!!! Yes, indeed. Look over my old posts an you will discover visuals from the last week!

So, as you may also have noticed I am definitely finding it difficult to keep up with posts everyday. And I know that when I get to other places I won't always have computer access everyday, therefore, so as not to worry anyone when I fall off the face of the earth for a few days, I'm just fine just a bit behind.

Anyways, so the last few days have been a lot of work but have been really good.
Friday was good and we ended up doing some fun stuff at the end of the day. We learned one of our new routines and had one of our students teach something from his country. A chant from New Zealand.

Saturday, was a day full of "rough blocking" which means we learn how the UWP Show will run. We also got to wear our costumes today. We did this all day until about 2:30pm, then we broke up into home teams. However before doing that we played a game and split the whole cast into two groups. The staff put up a sheet between the two groups and one person from each group went on either side. When the sheet was dropped the two people had to come up with the name or country that the other person was from. Very fun and dangerous! I got up to the sheet and waited anxiously hoping I could be the quickest to name the other person. When the sheet dropping I went blank and Armando from Mexico shouted my name and pointed his finger at me right up my nose!!! Needless to say I lost that round and I was taken to the other side. Then we broke into our home teams. In the Na Na home team we all brought something that we felt we couldn't have left home during this trip. Things varied from pictures, to IPods, to cell phones, to a ring, to a journal, to a movie or book, to mine- my ripped up jeans and Flat Stanley. I had decided that I really could have left anything thing at home but when packing I couldn't part with my favorite jeans and of course Flat Stanley! Then we talked about the news and our presentation of Africa news for tomorrow. After that we learned the Na Na song and then did some team building activities. Then our day with UWP was done.

But that wasn't the end of the day...

A group of about 20 of us decided to go to downtown Denver and grab a bite to eat and see a movie. We had a lot of fun and definitely made some memories. We ate at Johnny Rockets and saw Stomp the Yard. We got home about 11:15ish. Check out the pictures to see how Denver went!

Tonight was Sunday and Sandra my roommate from China made us dinner! It was sooo good and soooo much food. We had two chicken dishes one asparagus dish and one eggplant dish. Check out the pictures of our Chinese dinner!

Tonight I am still playing catch up. I have a couple things that I still need to do by tomorrow. (news, reading, a project for UWP). So that's it for the night! Enjoy all the updates and tell me what you all think!
