I woke up early this morning to do more editing on the IP. We got together at 730, and didn’t finish until 4:58. It was 2 ¼ hours on the intro, 1 hour on the methods, 1 hour on the results, 1 1/2 hours for lunch, 1 ½ hours for discussion, and 1 ¼ hours for everything else at the end. Long. Ass. Day. We made it through, though, and it feels really good to be done. I made a pep move by bringing everyone chocolate after lunch. At 5, we went back to play more soccer. This time, there was a ladies game and a main game. There were girls in the main game, but the ladies game was only girls. Hannah and I started over there, and then Lily, Rachael and Stevie came over later. It was so fun; about 20 minutes in, it started POURING. It took me a very long time to figure out who was on my team, or which side I was even playing towards. Some of the girls spoke English, but it wasn’t terribly good. I felt bad, as I didn’t know what language they were speaking, and didn’t want to be rude and assume they spoke Shangaan. I’ll have to ask. I ended up scoring a lot, so that always feels good . After the game, we had an epic mud fight on the main field, followed by a very dirty car ride and a lot of people jumping in the pool with clothes on. After dinner, we had a short meeting and lecture about the 3rd and 4th FFPs that are being started tomorrow.
