It'll never be like this again

Now that I'm a senior, I realize that it is nearly the end. It won't ever be like this, ever. That's why I want to do everything! So many plans, so little time:

MONDAY
We watched Silent Waters by Sabiha Sumar, one of the few feature films from Pakistan about a mother who tries to save her son from becoming involved in a rising Islamization movement under General Zia in 1979, Pakistan, while also struggling with her own secrets about her past. Suhair plays young Viroo in the movie. We had samosas, pakoras, and chai, courtesy of South Asian Women club.

TUESDAY
We feasted on a delectable sampling of the menu from Nacional 27, a new Latin-style restaurant in Chiacago, that has come to Okies. Oh, salmon and pineapple desserts, and guave cheesecake!
Plus, House.

WEDNESDAY
A free screening of American Dreamz at Cornell Cinema, "Starring Dennis Quaid as a Dubya-ish President, Hugh Grant as a Simon Cowell-ish host of an American Idol-ish show, and Mandy Moore as a ruthless wanna-be starlet, this comedy sure to push buttons!"

THURSDAY
Aparna Sen's 36 Chowringhee Lane

FRIDAY
Persian New Year, and maybe other stuff????

SATURDAY
Asha Spring Dinner

SUNDAY
A free screening of No. 17, with filmmaker David Olek. n June 2002, a bus on its way to Tiberius from Tel Aviv was bombed. Seventeen people were killed, sixteen were identified. No. 17 wasn't. He was buried a few weeks later - anonymous. This is where the filmmakers step in, documenting, in real time over a period of six months, the search for the identity of a man no one claimed missing.

MONDAY
MILRSO Fashion show volunteer meeting

I'd go on, but you get the picture.
