Stuff
It's been awhile. We've done a lot.
Unbreakable: Bruce Willis can bench press! There's an evil counterpart to every superhero.
Yay for Becky whose "Edith Piaf Saves the Day" won the 2006 Heermans-McCalmon Playwrighting Contest!
Snatching many snacks to make my Indian flag fried rice.
Cornell Commitment Convocation; Shashi spoke and we were beaming as much as her parents; Open House before the speeches was cool; Sheila's poster was displayed as a prime example of undergraduate research; Good cheese and hummus; Mark Gearan, former director of the Peace Corp and deputy chief of staff of the Clinton administration, made me want to be civically engaged. At least I know the First Amendment freedoms (speech, religion, press, assembly, petition the government ---- Didn't I do a class poster on this in the 7th grade --- dear Ms. Collins!)
The Village: it wasn't as thrilling as watching it the first time; still wasn't scary.
Dinner at Hai Hong with Shashi's family; enjoyed the Eggplant with Shrimp in Black Bean Sauce; Fried Ice cream which the young(er) people enjoyed.
Women's Basketball Game where we got to be sign-bearers: "Rolling with My Homies"
Watching the supposedly best well-made horror film out of Japan recently, but ended up laughing and confused by the end.
MLK III will be the Convocation speaker.
I learned about North Korean gulags, my god, it is still happening now. How can this happen? What can we do to stop it? And WHAT is it with the short man syndrome where guys supposedly make up for their height by ruling cruel totalitarian regimes or take over half the world? Oh, and the seemingly robotic participants in the Mass Games. It was freaky, but beautiful. Thousands of people dance together as if they are all one person. A brilliant show of how Communism expects individuals to be cogs in a perfectly working machine.
