 World Vision Naomi showed us a video about the daily life of a girl in Nepal. Her name was Sarita and she lived in Nepal in a family of 8 but her dad went away to find work and got very sick so for the time being they were a family of 7. She had to go 8.1 kilometres to get water that was full of dirt and bacteria which could kill her. Today we did an activity where we pretended we Sarita. She couldn't read and if I couldn't read I couldn't do these simple things: -Read danger signs -Read books to entertain myself -Read Recipes to cook. Sarita family shares a cup of rice to eat and that is all the have all day. Yesterday I had all this: Breakfast: Baked Beans and Yoghurt Morning Tea: Watermelon and Biscuits Lunch: Thai Green Curry Snack: Apple Afternoon Tea: Biscuits Snack: Rice Crackers Dinner: Garlic Pork and Veggies Dessert: Chips and Popcorn Snack: Banana Midnight Snack: Apple Sarita doesn't have taps in her house so she has to go 8.1 kilometres with a heavy petrol container to get dirty water while I can just go to one of my 14 taps to get a drink of clean water. Sarita has 1 toy a game of knuckles while I have lots of toys. If I had to have one of my toys it would be my lego agents because I could build lots of different things out of the same stuff. Sarita has to sleep in a small house on a dirt floor. This is how I would feel: I would feel quite cramped, cold and squished which would make me quite cold and sad. To all people that are poor these are things I would like to do: -Donate food -Teaching -Health supplies -Better water I hope one day there is no poverty or greed in the world.
