Today was a pretty fun day even though I probably spent a third of the day investing in a weaponized Lego shark thing.when I woke up this morning I was wondering what I was going to do today. When I got to the school site I was very stumped on what to do: painting, play with kids or aimlessly walk around. I then saw Dan sweeping all of the dust and then decided that I was at least going to do something productive today.

Today, I spent most of my time working on painting the SEEDS blocks. It was my first time painting anything, so I was very nervous. However, I had Hayley and Phoebe, among many others, to help and give me tips in order to make the artwork beautiful. The perfectly straight lines were difficult to achieve but with lots of tape and touch ups, we were able to get crisp lines. We still have some painting to do for that wall, but we ended getting a lot done. This was a fun new experience and I was happy to be able to try out painting.

The bumps, twists, turns, and brief moments of existential crisis packaged with each wobbly bus ride. So far none have been injured.
