Listen up Chris and Alex. Today after a few lectures we had a bunch of free time in Delhi. I was able to get a cab, with Purnima's help, and go to a tailor. While there Jon and I picked out fabric for a new suit. I am pretty stoked about it. It will be 150 knit cashmere suit. It is a dark blue color with a really nice sheen; the inner linning is crimson. I will go back in for a refitting after we get back from Lucknow, then pick it up for good before I leave. Be jealous; Be very jealous. I also got a piece of cloth sewed at another tailor. That specific man thought I was Sikh, from America. By the end of our converstation he also thought I was very good friends with a few of his other valued Sikh customers. Eventually he was very willing to make my adjustments at that very moment while I stood there. Donna and I were commenting on how our role has changed while being here. At home we are college students - not very high on the social ladder and always blamed for social discontent. However, here we are treated like traveling scholars and ambassadors with the highest form of social respect. I will definately miss more than the 3 wonderfully cooked meals a day when I go back to the states. But don't worry, all of you are worth it. Shout out to Mom, Sia, The Fam, the gang, Crimson, black, the home valley, Eugene, and Annie.
