hmm what a strange day.  The beginning of the day had bad energy.  I'm not having nearly as much fun as I thought I would.  It's not even as much work as I thought it would be and yet I can't seem to relax.  By lunch time today I was seriously thinking about packing my bags right now and leaving. I convinced myself to at least stay for a week and my mind had already started to devise plans on where I could live next.  I'm tired of being treated like I'm some 19 year old college student with no direction in life. I was berated by Subra today as we discussed the schedule and when I saw I had 5 cleaning shifts I mentioned that my main purpose for being here was for the garden - which I have spent hardly any time in thus far. He then told me that the work exchange was for cleaning and that working in the garden was out of the goodness of my heart.  WTF, really?  I found this garden through the WWOOFer site.  Then he so passively aggressively was talking to some other girls while I was standing there and said that "we work our way up from the dorms into the cabins, that we don't just show up and take a cabin - we have to earn it".  again, I say WTF. I was told to take that cabin by Muna - the boss.  I was doing what I was told, I didn't realize the hierarchy of the system and I certainly didn't mean to step on any toes.  He was then using that as leverage to convince me I needed to work more cleaning shifts.  It's crap.  Some people get such a high off being in charge.

Well, after I cleaned all morning and ate lunch we tried to hunt Muna down for our class at 2p. Well, this "class" consisted of standing in her apothecary looking at dried herbs, putting them in bags and then sweeping for her. She then took us out for a "yoga class" in which we sat in the grass on our hands and knees and moved our legs around for 10 minutes. I then saw that the other girls were back in the garden and so i joined them and the evening got increasingly better from there.

We planted a bunch of brassicas this evening. Muna apparently spokes pot after she cares for her grandkids all day and it makes her SUPER manic. So she ran out into the garden and flipped out about everything ridiculous. She decided that some of the cabbage had too many bugs and just started ripping it out and then she bounced around from place to place grabbing plants out of our hands and shoving them in the ground, changing her mind 8 times and contradicting her self.  Not that much different from normal life, but crazy none the less.  I hate tip toeing around people's personality disorders. It was still fun though because everyone was in the same boat of just trying to stay out of the way and laughing about it.  It made me feel much better to realize that I wasn't alone in thinking that she's nuts.

We came in from dinner and ate some rice and beans with a delicious salad.  I popped my growler open that I brought from Asheville and we had nice conversation for a while.  I think I'll head to bed early in hopes that I can get up early enough to get a good day in the garden before I have to clean.
