Met a really nice guy called Tommo who drove us down in his jeep ! so much fun as it was open air, but we got stopped by the police (just because we were white) and we had to bribe them to let us carry on, which was a bit of a pain, but kind of used to the police here now. We were planning to go to the silent disco in Palolem as that is supposed to be 'the place to go', but it was cancelled because its the end of season, so we just went to a few bars instead ! met the football team who play for india which was really cool ! expecially as i was talking to the captain & then the next day saw him on television doing a reebok ad ! didnt get to sleep untill about 6am, but stayed in a beach shack for about a pound each which was right on the beach, so when we woke up we could just jump straight into the sea ! best hangover cure ever !we have a lot of new children at the school now because loads of workers have moved to the area to work on the construction site, so sometimes the class is a bit hard to handle ! especially when you have like 5 children climbing on your back trying tickle you under the chin, but actually strangling you ! taught them how to make paper aeroplanes the other day which they absolutely loved ! made them go a bit crazy though and they were banging into the walls so much a bit of plaster fell from the ceiling ! they also love playing hangman even though they cant really spell so they just shout out random letters, we are taking them out for a picnic on the beach on wednesday which im really looking forward to as i dont think a lot of them have ever been.cant think of much else thats happened, except on monday we went to see tommo's horses & some of the girls went riding along the beach during the sunset. i didnt go on one because the indian horses look mental & i was too scared. im glad that i didnt though because once they got out onto the beach nora's horse bolted & the others followed ! nobody got hurt or anything but it was still scary to watch & i think it has put me off riding horses for life ! got some wicked photos though - trying to upload them now but i dont think its working. boo.
only got 5 days left in goa now before i go to malaysia ! i will miss it here just because ive met such wicked people & i will really miss the kids i teach, but i think im ready to leave india now ! hope everyone is cool ! leave me messages cause nobody has left any on here for ages ! peace x
