Last weekend the boys n I went to Goa via train, which was pretty sweet. Just imagine the beaches of Hawaii while raining cats n dogs. Monsoon season is ridiculous... Still fun though, we went to a couple local historical sites and partied a bit. Good little vacation within a vacation. Goa is a very Christian based state because back in the 16ish century the Portuguese took over the surrounding lands and brought Catholicism too. We saw St. Francis Xavier's relic (coffin), and I went to the Church of Santa Monica! :) It was a chill time. We were in this town called Panaji and we wanted to get a bite to eat n some coffee, so we see this cafe FULL of Indians so we assumed it was good and walked in. SO WEIRD! We were standing in the middle of this super busy "mess hall" just scoping to find a seat, and while this was happening everyone was just staring at us tough. We felt SOOOO lost at that point!.. but we found a seat and had coffee n samosas mmmmmmmh.. Another thing, the prices for a hotel in India are INSANELY cheap! We slept in this baller hotel for $25 for two nights... Seriously, a dollar goes a LONG WAY in India. Same goes for transportation.






My work for my professor is virtually done. I have written a few Matlab scripts that do some niffty stuff, so in the future he won't need an intern to do his grunt work. I don't think he expected me to finish this early, so now I sit in the lab n do whatever. Pretty chill.

I was deathly ill for a good 36 hours a few days ago, and I haven't been that sick since I had the flu as a child. I'm noticing my energy going down (same with the others) cuz we have no red meat or anything that sticks to our guts. My appetite is soooo low!!! The reason being is that when you eat food, you only snack a bit. Throughout the day you snack about 5-6 times a day, so you never really eat a lot at a time. When I get home: Big Mac super sized meal...

TO CHAD:
