Gym Supervising!

Today we've been in the Gym of JHS for a week. Finally last week on Wednesday we could start the gym supervising. The Kids can come in to the Gymnasium during their lunch breaks and shoot some hoops or play a little volleyball. It is great fun. one of the games they play is Lightning. You all stand in a line and you have two balls. The first person shoots from the 3-point line, If you miss you go get your ball and try to get it in a soon as you can from any spot. You have to get in in before the person behind you gets it in, or else you are out. There are a few girls in the gym so I try to play with them and I've gotten to know about 7 girls now.
It is also good for me to play a little basketball, because I haven't been exercising as much as I used to back home. But the weather is better again, nice and warm, so I swam to the little island that is in the lake behind my house yesterday.
That is good practice because my host brother Eric and his friend Josh want to do the Lifeguard training so they can be lifeguards at a YL summer camp next summer. I'm thinking about Joining them Because that sounds like the best job to have at a summer camp. Both Josh and Eric swam to the Island on Sunday and I was spotting them in the kayak, to make sure they wouldn't drown. They were having a pretty hard time doing that, so I will be able to help them with their swimming technique and train with them.
