My Subcontinental Journey: Note Strikes Back
http://ahcarney.blogspot.com/2009/02/note-strikes-back.html
A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Monday, February 23, 2009. Dear people who are having a wedding across the street,. I give up; you have won this uneven and unjust war. I bought ear plugs. Dear everyone else,. I've decided to take this as a gift. I will be happy about the really great amount of loud music that plays until 3 AM in my room. In fact, wedding season ends in a mere 3 weeks. 3 weeks! That means I only have 3 weeks left of 24-hour, conscious time!

A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Friday, May 1, 2009. That's the equivalent of an American Airlines flight leaving 5 hours early and turning into a giant pumpkin or something. That shit never happens! It was insanity. Anyway. Moving on. His name is Simon and he's a photographer who takes some pretty awesome photographs. There are even some photos of my very own Varanasi on his website. Including that cheerleader on TV, three. Weird. Anyway, so dinner was niiiicce. Thanks for rea...

http://ahcarney.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Bihar is beautiful in the springtime.maybe. Last Wednesday at 10 AM, my brother's flight landed in the Varanasi airport. In tow, he had two pairs of Gap jeans for me, six T-shirts, one friend from college, and one bag (half full) of Reese's. He had already eaten the first half, which no one could blame him for, and I surely did not. Don't even. And the pillows. Jason: Kitna sumay lugega? How much time will it take?

A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Saturday, December 13, 2008. First of all, I didn't have to take a rickshaw to her house, because she met me at the station with her driver, Saiid. We went back to her totally swank apartment where I was shown to my own room and. Bathroom. Right as I walked in I smelled something familiar, but I couldn't tell what it was. Katrein then said, "Oh, the bread must be ready, one minute," and then took out bread from her bread machine. Roundabout 7 we w...

My Subcontinental Journey: January 2009
http://ahcarney.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Saturday, January 31, 2009. Questions Lost in Translation. After that lovely experience, I ate lunch by myself. I watched dozens of children running around the sizeable courtyard, and watched a few groups of boys watching me. Spilling some rice on my dupatta, I then watched myself being laughed at. It was a touchingly reminiscent of my life in 5th grade, and I really appreciated the opportunity to go back. Then, a few boys came up to me. School fi...

A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Wednesday, April 22, 2009. Okay I can't go on without writing this: My stomach is about to explode.

After that, we started our exam and the didis proceeded to make tasty snacks for us, non-stop, for 2 hours. The snacks were given, in order, as follows:. Chick Peas in sauce (I gave all mine to Ed).

A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Wednesday, February 25, 2009. Objects in the Mirror Are Closser Then They Appear. Disclaimer: I'm sorry, but this post will inevitably be sort of lame. Except the monkey part, which will be awesome. Aren't you already sort of excited to read about it? Saturday started out with me "waking up" (I say this mostly in jest, because I was awake the whole night PSYCHE! At seven o'clock, putting on a kameez with a dupatta. Where are the waterfalls? On the...

http://ahcarney.blogspot.com/2009/04/my-internet-continental-journey.html
A log of my travels for the next year in Varanasi, India. Wednesday, April 1, 2009. So I've completely ignored my fieldwork project for the last two weeks. The mission was a complete success, and I am pleased to announce that I have made absolutely no headway in the tome of a paper due in two weeks. I don't expect a medal, but I don't think a pat on the back would be inappropriate. Rohan (Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
