1) i leave mysore at the very begining of november to move to chennai (where suresh tought in HEROES . . . . awesome). i will be there for my project cycle, which i have been told lasts both 2 and 4 months, so who knows what will really happen there.
2) i have a few awesome new t-shirts that i bought in mysore. lets just say that "indian fashion sense" is an oxymoron or contradiction of terms.
3) this place is incredibly dull and boring, and its a major hassle to get out and visit anywhere for the weekend. hopefully moving to chennai will solve part of this problem, because the city actually has its own airport and we will no longer have to drive for 3+ hours on top of our flight to get anywhere in the country.
4) most of the people i have grown really close to are leaving this sunday to finish their training in hydrabad. many of them will not be living in seattle, which means there is a good chance i will not see them again, or at least won't see them for a really, really long time. that sucks.
5) i have not yet been able to watch any football games, which seems to be working out well. apparently notre dame wins games when i don't watch. still, i don't like having a football season that i can't watch.
6) training is an absolute joke so far. i spent 4 years actually learning this stuff, and now i am getting a watered-down version of what i already know spoon-fed to me by people who don't know how to teach americans. i have gotten A's on all my tests so far without even exerting myself, and am possibly the only person who got 100% on the project we did.

no futbol . . . well, it was a great game! The Irish are coming back--and not just because you left the country. What about watching games on your computer? I don't know how it works, but I've seen stuff like http://www.satellitetvtopc.com/ for $50, and other sites too. Then you could stay up all night, just like in college. . . .
Thanks for discussing the recent violence, and the graphic where you moved the troubled cities far away from you! But in Chennai, the tsunami could get you?
