Since it’s the Thanksgiving weekend, Judy’s children were
home today and so our main task for today was to do a tie-dying project with
her 9-year old daughter Kali, despite the fact that today was the first day since we've been here that it actually rained. It took us a while to figure out how to mix the
dye properly and took even longer to boil the huge amounts of water required on
our little stove, which tested Kali’s patience quite severely. The tie-dying
itself went pretty smoothly and we dyed what felt like a billion garments that
Judy kept chucking out of the window at us so we could use up all the dye. Seems like all of Kali's relatives will be receiving tie-dyed socks for Christmas.

Towards the evening Sarah suddenly became very ill and had
to take some time out, but soon enough she was back out in the kitchen wearing
an Indian headdress she’d found in our room and drinking green tea like a true fighter.

Sarah, Kyle and I spent the evening with the possibly biggest
waste of time ever, taking about two hours to put together our respective ‘The List’s of five celebrities we would be allowed
to sleep with even if we were in a relationship. (The others were not impressed
with my choices.) After Kyle went to bed, Sarah (possibly inspired by all the
list-making) started counting up all the bad luck she’d had since getting here
(bed bugs, got water in her ipod, got electrocuted, got sick etc..) coming up to 13 items while
we could only think of three bad things for me, all of them being menial stuff
like having a mosquito bite on my face. So she’s pretty convinced that she's been cursed, we need to keep an eye out for her :)
