for the record,i'm not a coconut..

ok, so i am back to substituting the blog for a real human being. its hard to talk to people these days, either they are busy or i feel like i am being a super needy leech in wanting to talk to them - whatever!

anyway, i was trawling the web for info. about a certain visa (the campaign to not be deported is still going super strong! - if you know of any job openings, let me know!!) when i came across a website whose forum was basically dominated by indians - not that there is anything wrong with it. i just have this weird love-hate relationship with my compatriots that is too complex to analyze - i just accept that i feel the way i do about certain things and certain people - what can one do?

the website reminded me of a comment one of my systems and controls professor had made in class, which i found simultaneously hilarious and incredibly offensive! my professor, a hardened, WHITE, bush-hating republican, vietnam vet was talking about the other class that he was teaching, and he said.. "there's like a hundred indians in 3085" ....... .... ....

the only other indian in the class and i looked at each other - both unsure of exactly what our reaction to this statement was supposed to be - i made up my mind first and started to guffaw like nobody's business - the other dude just looked a little huffy and left class...


i miss dorsey! he actually thought i had potential and i loved his crazy outlook! goddamn i hope my campaign is successful!!

i don't want to give up on mr. darcy yet!
