what a day!

i met more new people today than i've met in years together. or so it feels like anyway. it was most exciting, somewhat scary. i have to pen this day in more detail later. for now, it falls under 'unkoshered'.

new people met: dana, maria, amherst-senior, creative-writer, doug gilbert, ice cute-guy, kihyun, laura, confused ldt-er, greg, hiroshi, full-time mom, olga from ukraine, angel yeh, berkeley guy with glasses, indian girl who looked familiar... and that's all i can remember.

observing all of these people was the most fun part of the day. how much one can tell about a person at a first meeting is positively astounding. a sign that i'm growing old, and have seen more of the world. not necessarily a bad thing. when age most clearly is representative of experience and wisdom, it becomes, in fact, a wonderful thing :).

the world is so so small.
and we're all standing in one big circle, holding hands.

i get the feeling the world is so large, and we're all standing around talking to each other on cell phones!

adu: yes, but shh!

trb: this is true. uday bhawalkar was talking about cell phones last night, about how they've taken over our lives. his 9 year old daughter was scoffing at how little kids in this country have cell phones and that india is so much better :)
