Not a lot has been happening of late, it's the holidays so most of the kids have gone home. Sarah's parents and boyfriend are here so she's on holiday with them and I have withdrawal symptoms from her :) (lonely, I am so lonely...)

The child-care worker that runs the drumming club inspected my drum the other day, he wanted a quick play to see what it was like and deemed it was better than his, he wanted to swap! He also mentioned painting it. I spoke to the guy who sold us them and he said to paint it with acrylic paint then coat it in a varnish to seal it. I plan on painting it pitch black with the grooves of the pattern a bright red, like Dennis the menace! Sarah suggested painting them with UV or glow in the dark paint so I'm working on that idea as well, I'll post pictures when I'm done!

I'm only working tomorrow and Wednesday of the week and a half holiday but tomorrow the kids are going on an outing to the coke-a-cola factory or something and I hope I get to go with. Volunteers either get to go on the outings or have to stay behind either with kids that aren't going or they don't have to work until the kids come back.
