31/7: Trust

I wanted to be more prepared for class today than I was yesterday so I had spent some of last night thinking up some. One of them was about trust. You have two people who stand in different corners of a room, one of them is then blindfolded and you put up obstacles in between the two children, then the child without the blindfold has to direct the one with to his or hers corner. To say that this turned out to be a failure is a bit mild. The child without the blindfold didn’t really direct at all and when he or she did it was so quietly so that no one could hear, so we had to move the objects before something went completely wrong, which of course it did when one blindfolded girl walked straight into the wall when I wasn’t looking. So that did trust each other, they just didn’t trust themselves to direct the other. So if anyone has any ideas for simpler games or something else we could do, please say so! I got the simcard the other day and one of the people from Projects Abroad was supposed to put money on it for me, and there was money for a time, but not very much, so I went to the office today to figure that out, she ended up giving me all the money back so that I had to put it in myself, but that was okay since I got to speak to Sheila. Sheila also lives in the same house as me, she is now in a college and she’s going to work at a hotel when she’s done which she seems to really look forward to. Another reason I went to the office is because I have to start the language course and they had said that I should come to the office to plan it, but the teacher wasn’t there and she never came, so that is still a bit unclear.
