I love these Sisters so much, I can't even describe how much fun they are. For those of you who think of uptight, ruler-wielding, penguin-resembling, nonsmiling old ladies when you think of the word "nun," think again.
You have got to meet the Salesians, they are crazy! Today we danced in the kitchen for half an hour. Sr. Charlotte, Joselyne, Sr. Rose, and me. We were singing these Swahili songs (rather they were singing, I was just dancing) that Sr. Rose brought from Congo when she went home for her father's funeral. She brought back a dvd of this one Christian-pop singer's videos. We were trying our best to imitate the moves that the Congolese are known for. It was soooo funny. Apparently its common knowledge that the Congolese just go "Tout le monde en position……..(stick your butt out)…." and then the drumming drops in and everybody starts booty bouncing. We were just dancing around while sharing stories of Congolese Salesian priests who are excellent dancers. Sr. Charlotte recounted one especially funny story of a really fat priest (here, the word "fat" is actually more like a compliment) who danced with all his might in extremely Congolese fashion and made his belly shake like a big bowl of jelly. I want to meet this man.
