In the midst of participating in many cultural activities there is always a time for some fun. Today the Glimpsers had a free day to relax and do as they please. We were able to go to the Internet Café which gave us a chance to communicate with our friends and also went out for some ice cream. Half of the kids stayed in town as the others went to play some basketball. Everyone enjoyed themselves and we ended the day off with teaching some of our fellow Ecuadorians the English language which is a very great experience. I, Sha Torres, was chosen to be El Lider Del Dia which I have never done before. At first, I was kind of nervous leading a group of 19 kids. I was able to push it aside and be myself and not change my character based on the position I was in. The challenge itself seemed difficult but I just did what I do best, and that’s making people happy. As the day progressed, there were some frustrating moments but I was able to keep composure and learn from them. From my experience of being El Lider Del Dia today, I’ve learned that it’s best to not change who you are even though you are put in a high position. Also, it’s always important to NEVER leave your group dehydrated. It may cause some serious stomach problems and will also be bad for your toilet. Other than that everyone had a great time and I hope to be in this position again in the future.
