First Football Training ¨Marcelo, NO ME GUSTA¨

Wednesday 12/05:

the refuge was a wee bit dramatic that day. emanuel broke a window and so isnt allowed to come to the Poli anymore. elen brought nail varnish with her though so we painted the girls [and a couple of boys] nails. and chatted with Paulina who is the lady that sits in the Poli Office, and i told her it was my last few days of the refuge project, and she told me that we were friends and that she thought i was really good with the kiddlers and we swapped email addresses and she said that if i ever wanted to visit the refuge again on my travels to email her and i can stay with her and not have to pay i-to-i again :p shes ever such a sweet lady and she was telling me how nice El Puma [the animal sanctuary] is going to be.

After the refuge i had a siesta and went to football training and marcelo was training the women and because hes such a slave driver i think the other girls thought we´d brought him totrain them and didnt take muchof a shine to the weird english girls lol. but we persevered and we had to run for like fifteen minutes then stretch then run again and then play running games with cones and i was DYING because i never excersize and i kept telling marcelo i was gonna tell veronica on him and it was all vey funny. we played a match and i actually TACKLED someone it was amazinnggggg and at one point i did ick the ball in completely the wrong direction and it went off the pitch and i herd lots of groans from the girls on my team but i was like well im proud of me so there :P
at the end marcelo told us that some local TV people were coming on thursday to interveiw us because we are foreigners helping with children or something and was like Beth, your gonna have to translate [he doesnt speak english] and i was like WHATTTTT im gonna make a massive fool of myself.


Love,
Bethnal x
