Bleeehhh

So India has kicked my ass.  Kicked my ass and it is not fun.  It makes me homesick.  I was told culture shock will hit you the first two weeks in and it will dissapate after a month.  It has begun, culture shock has set in.  we have all begun to complain about this great country.  I am still in love I am however just pissed off, weak, dehydrated, crouching over a toilet, and having a restless sleep. 

It all began two days ago when we wandered the back allies of centrral Banaras, which was so cool-- they unfold forever and are very much like a spireweb in all the directions they go.  Every space is packed with a shop the size of a closet and in some places you are forced to walk im single file.  The whole day I had spent laying and reading in the program house. and to be assualted with so many sights and SOUNDS after such peace was assualting.  Upon returning I slept for two hours and after that I got sick. 
I want jump in a swimming pool (something we will do this weekend- we can spend 5 bucks and have accsess to a pool all day at a nice hotel) or go to the queitest lake in the world.
