wireless in the dorms...
So after getting back from dinner and the sunday market (mmm mango salad) I returned back only to learn that we had internet access in the IFH! This may not seem like a big deal to you, but it's like Christmas here and we are all celebrating. No more walks to the library to check email- not that I'm lazy, it just means I can get online at a more decent hour... Anyway, anyone who wants to talk for free (this means you, Mckeough) I am going to get skype and it works really well so look into it and we can talk through headphones/cmp...

Also, in other news, I went to this Indian shop near the market and the weirdest thing happened. I started talking to the shop keeper and he kept saying he knew me from somewhere but couldn't place it. I told him that I had just returned from a trip to India this summer and he said... you mean on Sudder street? Yes... he said that. He recognized me from India! It was so crazy... we talked for a while and I plan to buy something from his shop. Anyway... it was so weird. He was really against Bush and couldn't have said anything more harsh and he described what he believed Bush was doing to his people.

In other news, I gravely underestimated the effect Ramadon would have on me... only have the canteen was open! 555. Also, the Indian man was really sick yesterday becuase it was the first day and he had not yet eaten. He was really weak and about to fall over... I couldn't help but be curious about this aspect of their religion.
