First, I applied for my passport a few months ago in preparation for studying abroad; I received it. Then I applied for my school's study abroad program in India; I got in. I applied for my Tanner Fellowship, and was granted it this past semester. I bought my air ticket, got completely vaccinated, even got my travel back pack (thanks to an oh-so-cool Jo). Now, after checking my mail just a few days ago, I can now FINALLY say that I am ready (at least with all the technicalities) to travel to India. I don't think there's something I can do so that will help me be ready for my future Indian experiences. I RECEIEVD MY VISA!!! See added image for my reaction to the news!
So... this is my first official blog post. True, I'm not technically in India yet, let alone Mussoorie, but I thought getting started wouldn't hurt ;) .
As you can guess from what I just said, I'm traveling to India this Fall. While there, I will spend a week in a hill town station, Mussoorie, where I will be working on a photography project. I want my project to be huge, amazing, a project incomparable to anything I've done in the past; part of it is what I'm doing here, in this blog. While in India I want to document my experiences through mixed digital media, of which includes blogging. This blog will be my way of connecting myself verbally (how I feel, what I'm doing, what's going through my head, etc.) to everyone else.
If interested in seeing any of my previous work, visit http://harlequintheory.deviantart.com/ . My past work is mainly photo-manipulations. Enjoy and/or comment (hopefully both).
There's a ton of people I want to thank for helping me get this far, but for now I'll spotlight Cathy, Carole, the Tanner Fellowship, and everyone else who has supported me thus far.
I'll be blogging randomly until I get to India, where then I will try to have less sporadic, more definite posts. There's still a bunch of things I have to do before leaving for India (I just finished applying for my visa =) ), so I'll have topics to cover until I leave.
Random thought about my trip of the day: My airplane meal is going to be vegetarian; I can't wait to fly to India!!!!!!
Tah tah for now.
