CHAPEL HILL

So i am currently in my bed typing this because we have one of our 3 days off tomorrow which means we have no curfew, which means I can sleep at home. I never realized how comfortable my bed was until now. Anyways, some updates on the trip: We rode into chapel hill on Thursday, where I say a couple of people from high school randomly around Franklin street, and my mom twice on the road. I stopped at the loop for lunch where they gave us a 10% discount for what we were doing before trekking it up the Franklin street hill. It was kinda weird knowing exactly where to go...except for which church we were at. Although it was my home town, I still managed to get lost some how. I missed the church on Franklin st, and didn't realize it until I made it to Carborro. Kind of got made fun of for that one. After we got in from our bike ride, we had our first bike clinic, which went really well. There were a lot of kids that came out, and it was a lot of fun to teach them the importance of bike safety, how to ride, and play with them. The clinic ended around 5, we ate dinner around 7 and then I met up with my sister, Kendall and Renee and just kind of hung out. By the time I make it to the night time I am always ready to pass out. This whole waking up at 6am and doing strenuous activity really makes you want to go to bed early. I ended up heading back to the church to go to sleep around 11:30, had a minor dance party with us underage folks, and then passed out.

Today was our first of nine build days. It was a lot of fun. When we first got there there was only a foundation laid down. We ended up putting up all the walls for the house. There's not much to say about the build day. It was very tiring yet also very rewarding. The people we were working with were so nice and appreciative, and last night we actually got to meet the family we were building for. Chapel Hill has really treated us nicely.

Tomorrow is our day off, and mostly everyone is coming over for a pool party!!!! I probably wont update tomorrow seeing as I will be spending my entire day lounging, can't wait! Well thats really all for now.
