JC Day!

Today we had the JC day! Everything was backwards so we started with saying good night and then we had flag down and lullabies.  JC's ran around backwards and had their clothes inside out.  We started meals with "Kiitos" which is usually sung after eating. 

First activity was JC national night which consisted of a presentation on "JC-Land" which detailed the magical land.

 We also did a skit and played a fun game called Tarzan, Gentleman, Knight. The second activity, we did an activity called lifeboat. We were divided into boats and given different characters. We had to act as these characters and argue for why we shouldn't be kicked off the boat. It was really interesting to hear other people's perspectives. The game developed into a more general discussion about judging people by first impressions. Third activity was trading market where everyone had clothes and other items from their countries and walked around looking at each others things. Eventually we all got something nice from other countries. 

For the evening activity we went to the gym and had our own space to lie down. We calmed down with music and before going to bed and then ended the day by saying good morning.
