Whaaaattttttt?

So It seems that there are many periods of the day where the Brothers I live with start speaking in the native tongue, which leads to me asking what like all the time. So much so that they have started making fun of me by the way I say what. It's just become so natural for me to say what.

Well today started off well because I was able to sleep in. The college was having there acquaintance party all day and to start it all off there was a Mass. So the Mass was suppose to start at 8 a.m., well it was 8 a.m. and there was no Mass kit, not lectionary or sacramentary, therefore, sending me into a panic because none of the Hummingbirds were around which they have a key to the office. Then the priest was kind if impatient, he is Filipino, but I wonder if he has ever heard of Filipino time. Lucky enough everything got sorted out and we started Mass about 30 minutes late.

After Mass, I washed clothes, yet again, enough said! It takes forever.

This afternoon was pretty fun. Some of the Brothers and myself went to a really small island and I mean really small. A football field is larger than this island. They have canopies and of course water to go swim in. It turned out to be a beautiful since it was pouring this morning. I enjoyed it and got me some sun. We were only there a few hours. Got back to campus and performed the dance again to the students, they enjoyed it. I also went to Madame Rose's house, which was a lot of fun. Got to see Jampy, who is always so adorable and her puppy.

Tomorrow I will be attending Mass at the Benedictine Monastery here in town and then something fun again since it is the American Independence Day!
