Not So Eloquent :/

Wednesday was filled with tireless CLS students and getting to the host family house.
Earlier we all ended up in a room entertaining ourselves with games after taking the placements exams. This entertainment consisted of games like "this is a what." Others involving coordination...it was funny and you know if you have ever played.

The school I attend is the American Institute of Indian Studies (AIIS). It is located across the river, down the street, and on a block from where I stay.

My roomies (2 other CLS students) and I just came back from a shopping center people refer to as the "Big Bizarre." We got there by rickshaw** - a man on a bike that has a two-seater on the back.
The main roads here are paved. Metal sits all the way through the cement to where you can see it. It seems to make some roads more smooth... Ill have to ask my 'buddy' back home about that.
So..yes there are people coming from every direction! Opposite to the US they drive on the other side of the street. Only even on the opposite side there are people driving the opposite direction. There are cows, stray dogs, people, and vendors on the side of the street... That is in addition to the motor and bike rickshaws**, motorbikes (not exactly motorcycles), and cars. Imagine that!

(excuse my typos please...im exhausted and half functioning...im going to bed soon)

All is coming along :)

P.S. (btw) I dont mind e-mails.
