so. i went into today thinking I'd get work done, and study... instead, i went to nightly crew at trojan vision, and missed (chicken and) waffles & night market for "voices shaking USC", was a cameragirl (to get better at it...), and successfully didn't finish my TCE episode, and then went to parkside and had the best time with the people i like most. chilling, boarding, eating, chilling, eating, boarding, talking... for hours! i love how things work out better than planned, but studying would be the best plan right now. : / i'll study tomorrow. then buy cleats. and study more until GARBA NIGHTTTT WOOOO! I am so psyched to garba... in my salvar. ; ) it's been so long, and without the peanut gallery at garbas back home, it will be nice. but i'll miss karishma, who was at EVERY garba I have ever gone to, and neha <3 and zill. but it would still be nice to go back to my roots. but i kind of think that that's a sacrifice i can make to study for my midterms. so i might not go (esp cuz diwali is next week anyway, and I'm def going to be better dressed for diwali than this...)
and i don't think i need to pay 10 dollars to be a usc student garba-er. . .
yeah. i'll forgo garba and finish studying. : /
then i can be all interfaith at the event on sunday and meet manoj, and co (mom said not to call him uncle. but i don't know what else he'd be...)
...you know what would be more interfaith/intercultural? to celebrate all the holidays around this time... like eid, diwali, moon festival, whatever jewish holiday is all around campus, etc.
show people what the traditions are...
it's like debate: no one cares what you SAY.
it's the actions that matter. whatever you say is just practice and skills for a world that only remembers action.
oh ,and OVERFLOW YESTERDAY WAS BOMB. :]
thinking about things in that wayyy helped me deal with the stress of life right now.
