india is...
being force-fed sweet limes by my aunt
having the smell of my hands alternate between spices and shaving cream
sleeping [poorly] for 13 hours a day
receiving marriage proposals
arguing incessently with my siblings
repeating myself over and over again
going for motorcycle rides with my cousin
fantasizing about the super hot guy from that 'call on me' music vid
learning surya namaskaram with my uncle at 430 in the morning
watching inane soap operas with my aunt who is going deaf
laughing really hard at the new rajni kanth movie
struggling to appreciate all the double negatives in middlemarch
eating jalebis, mysore pak, and payasam 24/7
being told that i've lost 'all my color' [i.e. that i'm really dark now]
entertaining relatives on behalf of my parents
about becoming more confident in my own language
gossiping
bathing from a bucket
enjoying the cool weather and the tail end of the monsoon
surviving internet withdrawal
missing my friends
no privacy
