to india

Ok, so this summer has been just a bit ridiculous. First rugby tour, then a cruise with my entire extended family, and then putzing around Europe seeing scenic things and meeting stuck up Europeans who don't care to converse with me, causing me to miss you guys even more terribly. But now I am going to India. What? Long story short, a professor from that Needfinding class I took fall quarter recommended me to a social entrepreneurship startup that is working on affordable and safe lighting in rural India, dlight. They decided to bring me along with them to India for three weeks to talk to people and help them figure out where they are going to go next now that they have one product already developed.

I am, obviously, super psyched, but also kind of wishing I had more time to just chill and get my life together before school starts. I ended my Europe trip early to come home for a week before bailing on this country again, and that wasn't even close to enough time to get my shit sorted. So it looks like it will be another last minute scramble before classes start. But, on the positive side, I don't have to think about all of the grownup things that all people my age are supposed to be dealing with and can, for the moment, stick with woooooo travel! ;)
