mcgillianairethe next nine days are going to be habsolute hell pour moi! just too many things coming together @ once and then there's almost nothing going on till the end. well, it's not as black/white as that. i've got 2 group presentations, a midterm, squillions of little and big assignments, readings to do, places to go... you get the picture. :)
on wednesday Ari G is makin' a guest appearance @ my social context presentation. he be the genetically modified, twin brofa of the well known Ali G. for those of you who dont 'ave a clue what the flippin' heck i'm on about, don't bother. i just pity ure blissful ignorance... ;-)
next week is esp. brutal. wish me luck. friday nite tho is v.important for the desis who care bout their cricket. india takes on its bitch @ midnight EST in karachi. this is the first time india will be carryin' out a full series (involvin' tests) in pakistan since 1989. if i'm not mistaken they played a few one days a few years ago, and as much as they're just entertainment flicks, there aint that much entertainment when the two traditional archrivals get together.
till now ive been tryin' to calm myself down and not let the emotional side of things get to me. what tends to happen with these matches is that the supporters get overexcited and eventually treat victory or defeat in a single match as a victory or defeat to the whole country in general. it's just so passionate. and as much as i want a good contest, there's just that little side of me that wouldn't mind seeing pakistan reduced to a cropper. right, so that's highly unlikely but still. at least i've promised myself not to say 'jai hind' anymore cuz it's not encampassing enough of the diversity that makes up my spiritual home and land of ancient heritage.
JAI BHARAT!
