Free Day

Today our schedule has allotted time for us to sit back, relax and have some time to ourselves on MICA campus. My roommate, Rennie and I slept in until 10:30, which for me is not too late. However, for me in India it's incredible that I can sleep for this many hours. Since my US departure, I have not been able to sleep past 6:30 am until today.

Lunch (spiciest rice ever and roti, which is basically a tortilla--I'm thinking of bringing down my peanut butter with me tomorrow and putting some in it). Class, class, class.

Bollywood film in the auditorium.

Side note--As of today, our balcony door is hopefully fixed. As monsoon season began last night, neighbors ran into our room asking if our dorm was flooding. Nonchalantly, Rennie and I both replied with a sure fire no. We were mistaken. Water was slowly running in underneath the balcony door! One of only two bath towels we have had to be used to stop the flood, and soon MICA staff came and swept the water away. 'At least our dusty floors are clean' was the only thought that ran through our minds...a clearly Indian mindset has taken over our thought processes for the time being.
