I have never eaten so much rice in my life as I have in the past 3 weeks ( I generally don't seek out rice unless it is in sushi. It would never be my first choice of food so I'm pretty sure that is not an overstatement).
Yesterday was a festival of kites. I celebrated by reading more of kite runner ( it's very moving and intense but very good).
It is still weird to see boys walking together with their arms over each other just in a friendly manner.
It's ok to drive on the wrong side of the road if you are planning to turn soon.
There was a cute lizard in the bathroom for a while and then in the SIP classroom but I haven't seen it recently.
I'm not very gifted at Hindi, or I suppose languages in general.
Every time there is a situation where it would be helpful to use Hindi, I immediately think of every other language that I've learned instead. Suddenly Italian and Spanish come rushing into my head but I realize that "Dove" is not going to mean much to a Hindi speaker and neither is 'si'.
There are smells in India which I couldn't even begin to name, a lot of which I believe come from burning trash.
ALSO, from the movie we saw, a great song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifh8l2aB7ic
