THE FIRST VILLAGE TIME IN 2010
By JACQUELINE Uwizeyimana, Benazir Bhutto Family
This week’s blog entry comes to us from Jacqueline, who lives with 15 other girls in the Benazir Bhutto Family home
The first village time for 2010 happened on 8th January 2010 and it was special and very exciting because we were together with the new kids “our young sisters and young brothers” and the most interesting we were for the first time inside the dinning hall.
Usually we have a village time on Friday at 6:00pm, it is a time where we meet together as a big family and talk about what we have done and also what we could do in the next week and also we get different comments and announcements from different people.
The first village time was awesome! Because we were looking to the new kids just to make sure they understood English and I like to see their reactions when somebody talks.
These kids are really nice and beautiful but I have to work hard to memorize their names, once I try to do it in few minutes I get forget easily, that evening we had a wonderful time with them.The village time started at 6:00 pm as usual, it was led by two MC, and the religion club announces the freedom of the different beliefs at ASYV to the new kids.
NIR told us about how we should create our own culture. He told us that to have a real culture it takes a very long time, from generations to generations. The reason why we should have our own culture is that our village doesn’t have a Rwandan culture or Israeli culture but we have to create our own.
SHIMON told us about a quote as usual, this time was” the future depends on the present” and we have to work well so that the future will also be good.
The village time ended at 7:00pm and we took a dinner.
That evening was a wonderful time to every one in the village.
