First day of class

I have had professor Cruz before and I really enjoyed her class. This semester I look forward to learning more about culture, religion, and the environment. First day of anthro class was pretty interesting. I learned about Pono, which means to correct, do the right thing, balance, right action. As much as we want to be pono, it is difficult to do. In class, we also did an activity where everyone was assigned a number and no one else could know about it. We were all blind folded and together we had to line ourselves up in a line from 1 to 26 without speaking. So to figure out other's number we used hand signals. It was a fun but difficult task to do. Numbers 1 to 11 were correctly lined up and the rest were mixed up. The point of the activity was to experience how its like to do something new without having any knowledge of it. We weren't able to speak or see, but to use our physical features instead. Aside from what was done in class, I am excited to attend the field trips to Mokauea Island and Makua Valley :)
