I woke up late on my second day with maruge because I was so tired. I got up and found maruge making tea in the tiny kitchen of his. We drank our tea and then we each had an egg from his chickens with bread. I got dressed and when I walked back to maruge he was making a little lunch and putting it in two bags. “What’s that for?” I said. “Lunch for school” maruge replied. “OH”. When he finished up we left his hut and walked the mile to school. We got there by eleven and we were a little late but the teacher said it was fine. Maruge introduced me to the teacher who was named Jane. We took a seat on the floor and listened to the lesson I got quite bored doing first grade math but I enjoyed watching the happy children learn. All the kids were so happy that they got to learn, they paid a lot of attention. I did al my work in about a minute and all the kids were saying, “you’re so smart” or “wow you know a lot”. There was this one kid who was about nine and he was having trouble writing number fives so I helped him for a while. I helped many other kids with their work and they all were very happy when I helped. Next we got let outside to eat lunch and play. I ate my lunch and then played jump rope with the little kids. They always laughed when I spun the rope really fast. Jane came outside and told us it was time to learn another lesson. About two hours later they let us out of school and gave us a page of reading homework I did the work in about five minutes when we got back. After that I helped maruge finish his Homework. Then we went outside and we got some eggs from his chickens. While we were thinking of what to do for dinner, the kid that I helped with his number fives and his dad came in and asked us if we wanted to have a big dinner with lots of the people in the village. There was no school the next to days because it was friday so we could stay up late. We helped cook and then we all sai outside in a circle and ate the big meal. It was delicious. There was tons of different dishes like lentils, curry, chicken, and so so much more. We talked for a while afterwords and then we went back to the hut. We got ready for bed and had a good nights sleep.
