hi class,

just wanted to share my reactions/ feelings/ experiences from the trip. images to post later. 

car horns arent as bad as they used to be, can’t believe i’m saying this!!  the only exception is when we were going to taj mahal and the driver used some new horn. i couldnt hear myself think! taj was nice, glad i went.

i enjoy hearing the horns and cars at night because then i dont feel alone.  there are crows that sound as if theyre sitting at my window crowing at 6 am.  i can  do without that. 

so far, i’ve been getting a few good images. i enjoyed elephanta island because i think the images i got there were intriguing and plentiful. i accomplished a lot of shopping on that trip. i think i bargained pretty well! now i’m kind of tired of it and would rather just pay a set price, or have them on sale for 75% of.

my individual project seems to be going well. i’m excited about it because i can continue it back in america. i’m nervous because i used film, but hopefully it’ll turn out well!!  i’m excited to see everyone’s images when we return!  i want to see other people’s perspectives and they’re “greatest hits!!”

unfortunately, the eating hasn’t been the best of experiences. not much i can say on rice, plain lentils, and yogurt. i’m healthy? ha. i’ve lost a little weight, but i think i’d rather have real food and a variety of food than a few less pounds. its seems that other people are enjoying the food, so i’ll live it through them! =)

safe travels home!! i hope no one else gets sick!!  it’s been a great experience and i’m glad we were all able to go!!

our first post! very excited!
