Once again, not much to report today. Jen got here last night. She's 26 and from Australia, though she's doing her masters on agricultural development in Denmark. She came to India to write her thesis in Hyderbad, which she'll be doing after CRAWL. I haven't really gotten to know her yet.
I slept in really late today, and never really seemed to wake up. I need to do some exercize, but I'm in no hurry to go running out in that heat. So I just lazed around the flat until four of the girls came for the computer and reading class. The computer still isn't working, so we just had them read out loud.
At school they made envelopes and drew, and Bobby passed out bananas and cookies. After that, I came here.
Tomorrow, we're going into Kolkata. I believe the plan is to go to the Maidan (Kolkata's version of Central Park) and then to go to a movie. Monday and Tuesday are our weekend, so no projects.
Thats all for now.

Wow! What an interesting life you have been leading in India! It certainly isn't New York or any big city in the United States, but in some instances it is very sad, and I can agree with you that it would be very hard to get used to after living as we do in America.
But, Maura, you write so well. I think you should be like Sarah , and be a writer. You have the ability and write so interestingly.
I understand your mom is keeping you supplied with those good old snacks for your snack attacks.
I'm glad to hear that you may be able to go to a movie or restaurant now and then.
We love you and miss you. Grandpa and I send our love.
