170?

gosh. when i think of the number of people i know in the world, i would think maybe 50, maybe 70, but not much more. i'm really off. there are 170 people on my friends list on facebook. now some of you may have a lot more and some of you may have a lot less and overall i don't believe it means much, but 170 is just a huge number. i mean, i could put them all in a classroom and i would need a really large classroom to fill. 170. sheesh! and to think this doesn't even include half my friends and family. well, i don't know about half, because i'm so off numbers right now, but a lot...

ok that's all. i'm over it. 170 is not that much. not if you consider that there are 18-20 people associated with my program, that there are about 18-25 people from dhwani, that there are hopefully 20-30 close friends i've accumulated over the years, that there are a few family members on there - perhaps 3-5, that i went to high school in two different places, and each place has at least 10 familiar faces. then the 5-8 folks i met over the summer. and then the 5-8 coworkers i have on my list. and oh, the friends of friends i've said hi to are probably 20-30.

nope, i'm still off. i give up. 170's just an unimaginably huge number.
