Yesterday after dinner I met up with the girls from the blind camp. We sat around in a circle and just talked about girl stuff. They asked me several questions about America. They were so curious to hear about what I ate, what kind of music I listened to. One girl asked if we listen to English music during Navrathri (which is a religious holiday). I told her "No, we listen to the same music you do". She was shocked to hear this. They talked about what Bollywood actors they liked and what they liked to shop for. It's was so amazing to listen to these girls who have never seen anything yet had such vivid thoughts. Tonight they have a music recital which I'm going to go to.
No weekend for me.. people work on Saturday too. I'm headed to a village in a bit with a social worker.
Very psyched about Obama's win. So are the people of India
