overacheived?
so, as you all know, the transition to being in nyc has been a little rough. getting used to private school people, the ivy league scene and the general competitiveness of the city (and those ivy brats) had been bringing me down. but you know, i think i am coming back. the visit home and that chance to walk in the seattle rain again made me realize what was important. not having the rain, clouds, mountains and trees here, on the one hand, disconnects me from the earth, but on the other hand, the world and all it has to offer, seems so limitless. i always wonder what it is about this city that drives people. it must be that sleeping through opportunity is simply not an option.
i am back on track for 2006- its going to be a much better year. can't you already feel it? there has been this push to move, to strive for what i want to do, to just get at all of it. i lost sight of that inner passion, in 2005. i lost sight of the fact that i have a strength within me. that, this strength will always guide me to where i need to be. and of course, i have my guides… i think i feel her sitting next to me right now.
even though the emotional ride is not over, and likely won’t be until i get through the saturn return, i have a tailwind that’s propelling me forward, a power that’s fueling my passion and a spirit that won’t let me fail. in sum, i'm back! and this time, with even more sass!
numerology seems to agree with my new found understanding. i strongly suggest that you take the time to check whether your 2006 predictions agree with you.
in terms of personal achievements, so far this year, i have been doing the dishes and cleaning up after myself. those of you who have lived with me know that this is a major change. i am knitting less, it's sad to let it go, but i have sooo much to do. i am doing my reading! as sb, rahul and TyP know, reading anything for my classes was simply, unheard of during both my undergrad and grad years. how did i ever make it through? on a recent visit to dc, sb made a (feeble) attempt to reconstruct our college days by brainwashing me to believe that i in fact studied. but, lets be real. i spent most of my energy on boy-drama, student politics and wearing a social worker outfit.
i am attempting to become a better listener and have more patience, this is making the rahul much much happier. and, i think, me too.
in school and work news, i ran for a student position on the global health forum. meet your new communications co-chair, me! man, running unopposed really has its benefits, though the cute popular south asian girls all said that i spoke very well. i don't really fit into their crowd.
my work with rachel is getting better and better. here she is on the job ! she is very cool and very supportive. I might get to go on this new project this summer. we will be doing trainings in the rural villages, on basic life support and other emergencies. i want to develop a learning module for obstetric emergencies and work with traditional birth attendants in the villages. it's true! i am pregnant with the upcoming birth of my new profession, training and program planning in global reproductive health.
move over rover, and let anju take over. (thank you jimi)
