terrible modern: June 2012
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 27, 2012. This weekend was my first visit to the Old City and my first experience of anything really touristy in Jaipur. I went with some classmates (Mayrah, Camille, Gita, and Kirsten) to the City Palace, which is a gorgeous pinkish cluster of buildings full of strange museums and crafts for sale and decorated on the outside with beautifully painted doorways. Sunday, June 24, 2012. The perils of indian classical music. I have a new activity to consume my days of reading the dictionary an...

terrible modern: June 2013

Wednesday, June 12, 2013. I made a new blog to document this year's travels. I will be living in India for a year plus to study Hindi and Tamil language. This change isn't because I've outgrown Terrible Modern, but becuase it feels good to have a clean start. The address is: http:/ zoewoodburyhigh.wordpress.com/. Hope you keep reading!

terrible modern: May 2012
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2012. Phone adventures and temples. I underestimated how tired being hot makes me. Also, attempting not to be outside after dark makes the day feel so much shorter. It is dark by 7 pm here. Mahabalipuram is very safe. It's only because of the nightime that I was thinking of them. I cried some tears, and was eventually distracted by The Discovery of India. I went to a very nicely air-conditioned restaurant for a lassi before setting out to see the Five Rathas. They were far down a lo...

terrible modern: January 2012
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 28, 2012. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. With bird and nest and song. So much has happened. And I'm still developing a whole blog post about my visit to Pine Lake! I think I will save that for when I have time to post all those pictures, because they really are lovely. I am taking six classes this semester and continuing my involvement with three clubs, so when that will be, I am not sure. Poetry, writes that it captures the difficulty of translation perfectly:.

terrible modern: lonely planet is right again, and reflections from the farm
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2012/07/lonely-planet-is-right-again-and.html
Friday, July 13, 2012. Lonely planet is right again, and reflections from the farm. I just don’t want to talk to you! 8221; Then the guy asked me if I hated men, or Indians, or non-white people, and I attempted to escape. It was so strange to get this response from pilgrims carrying bottles of Ganges water. Strange men, you have no idea how you have affected my perception of your religion. These are Asian boys!

terrible modern: July 2011
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 30, 2011. Earlier this week, Max and I spent two different nights at a cabin on Sebago Lake that his friends from Austin are renting. It was a really good time. Although I unfortunately didn't think to get a photo, swimming in Sebago and watching the sun set over the lake was a truly beautiful sight. The next day Max's friend Sue also read my tarot cards, always a fun activity! And then after breakfast at a nearby good ol' fashioned diner, Max and I picked blueberries by Panther Pond.

terrible modern: July 2012
http://terriblemodern.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 23, 2012. Why learning hindi is hard. Language is fluid in India. There are not so much specifically designated zones where each individual language is spoken as a multi-layered blending of one language into another. These are my thoughts for the moment. There will definitely be developments in my thinking about this as time goes on. A wonderful saturday visit. Goats by pretty Amber. Somewhere in the distance you can see where I live. Friday, July 13, 2012. These are Asian boys! They are nau...

terrible modern: Juli 2009
http://iwroteahitplay.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Donnerstag, Juli 09, 2009. Last day. ever. I don't know quite how this happened, but it appears that today is my last day in Germany. Up until a week ago (ähm, pretty much from September), I was looking forward to going home like insanely. This is impossible to comprehend. I don't really have a real life here. I feel like I'm practicing for something. A lot of the time I find myself thinking, "Next time I will do this. Differently." But then. this IS my life! See you in America. Montag, Juli 06, 2009.

terrible modern: August 2009
http://iwroteahitplay.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sonntag, August 02, 2009. I am, at long last, updating my blog. This past month has been crazy. I can't believe that it's really been four weeks since I left Germany, but at the same time, my whole exchange seems very far away. This is SO WEIRD! After a day in D.C., I met my parents, and we spent a couple more days in Baltimore, visiting Ellen's parents, and a day in Cambridge with Mana and Pop. I was really eager to get home! It should be in a magazine! Margot is not my real name.
