200th Post

I just realized that this is my 200th post!!!
Sad news is that my computer crashed a few weeks ago and has been deemed unfixable. It's sort of hard to blog from someone else's computer, so this may be it.
Email me at pigasus12@yahoo.com if you need me. I can't get my other emails.
Peace for now!!!!

Sleepy City

Today I was out and about in my old city and I was able to accomplish something I've wanted to do for a long time: take pictures of people sleeping!!! I didn't set out to take pictures of sleeping people, but I saw so many that I just started taking their picture. This city is insanely loud and I don't understand how people can sleep in it. It's the funniest thing to me.
I could have robbed the bank. Good thing I'm already rich. (that's a joke) My favorite part is that his shoes are off. This is the S. Asian eqvialent of strapping a kid in the mini-van to get them to sleep:

This is my favorite. The ice cream man on top of his stand. I guess this way no one will be able to steal from him.


I had so much fun taking pictures of people while they were asleep. It's sort of a rush not knowing if they are going to wake up or not.

Is this weird?

First Kurtas!!!

A friend of ours is making a quilt out of all the kurtas (tops) of the girls she's worked with here. Abby and I were considering which ones we should give, and we figured we should give her our first ones. Here's a picture of us during our first week in S. Asia with our first kurtas on. I disliked mine then b/c I felt like an asparagus and I pretty much dislike it now. I'm not sure if I've worn it in public since this picture. I'm scared mine will ruin the quilt, so I may give up a better one.
Current Pics:

I'm rolling out of town tomorrow to pick up a newbie that will be w/ us for the next few weeks. I'm pumped for what's to come!!!

Yikes!!!

I totally passed out today and fell on top of an old man!!! Last time I passed out and someone had to catch me was in high school and I ended up getting a prom date out of it. This time there were no perks just pure embarrassment and a bruised knee. That's about all the story.
