Whats up?

Long time....yes, I know. But something happened. A small little course at UW. Class once a week. Two essays to submit over the weekend, every week. Nice! Wait....on what? Philosophy!!!! Yikes....philosophy of architecture!! What was I thinking? Like most things in my life I din't know what I was getting into.

Now I have just one more class to go and I feel life will never be the same again....there I go again..all melodramatic!!! What was so special is that I learnt something so very important. That there is a link between Language, metalanguage and architecture. Yay!!! Now I can put it all together, shake it all up and gulp it down like a milkshake!!! Then I realized how much of reading I have to do, want to do. I kinda lost track of things I wanted to explore after I came to the US...but now I can see an open window.

The class was good....but I need to make use of it for anything effective to germinate. Germinate...You know, try as I might, I'm not a gardening person. Nor am I a handicraft person. I wish I could be....taking, absorbing joy in a detail, a blossom! I digress. So I want to travel. Yeah right! I do but its not going to happen in the near future. But i can dream. Travelling with a backpack, walking through a city, absorbing it, reading in transit, learning to say hello in local languages. The life of a nomad!!
