half hearted post

i am writing this post because sarasa bugged me to update my blog- i can't say i have a lot of interesting news or things to say, but i will make a genuine attempt! so the past couple of weeks have been a little crazy and strange. i'm working on the project with a delhi-based ngo, which has been somewhat frustrating because the government of this state is so ridiculous, but i am hopeful that things will work out in the end. i will be less vague about that when stuff finally comes together!

india is getting super hot, which is good and bad. good, because the heat means that mangoes will soon be available in the markets, which is SO exciting. but, it's also hot, so that's not quite as exciting. i might be shifting houses, because my place doesn't have AC, and i actually managed to give myself sun stroke (aka heat stroke).

other good things- i've learned how to cook okra one way. i've discovered kesar pista milkshakes (saffron and pistachio flavors). i had my first webcam/skype conversation the other night with frank. i bought a pink sari. i'm going to amritsar next weekend to see the golden temple. i'm trying to plan a trip to the mountains in 2 weeks if i can convince some poor soul to accompany me.

Aw. Now I am sad that it is half-hearted and that you felt forced into it by me.
